Target · 5+ servings fruit & veg daily

Healthy Diet

Favour whole foods over processed ones: more vegetables, whole grains and healthy fats, less added sugar and salt.

Why it matters & tips
Target · 8,000–10,000 steps/day

Physical Activity

Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate activity a week. Walking counts, and consistency beats intensity.

Build small daily habits that calm the mind: deep breathing, meditation, or simply time in nature.
