1. Stopped smoking
2. Switched from beer to bourbon

It's funny that the first two right now are 'stopped eating meat" and "stopped eating everything except meat".

For me it is getting up when I wake up. No alarm. It wasn't always possible but instead of getting up early to run or be virtuous in some way, I sleep until I wake (not late! Usually between 7-730), have a short but indulgent morning, only water until I get to work (by bicycle) then coffee and breakfast. I wish I had always been able to do this.

And MHT, so glad I tried it - I had no idea I had menopausal symptoms because I never had a hot flash. But the MHT knocked out the migraines I was having, the UTIs, my thinking is clearer, and even though it put a few pounds on me I'm still inside healthy weight. That success convinced me to be more intentional and interventional about aging - I thought all that longevity stuff was about living longer (because of the word) but mostly it's about staying healthier and that feels physically good.

Eating HelloFresh food. I don't live near a grocery store so before that I was eating fast food most of the time. I don't remember what I did during the pandemic. Now I have a great variety of healthy food and I suspect it has contributed to the improvement in my mental health.

Another thing I did more recently to improve my health is get an exercise bike. I've been exercising for at least an hour or two a day while I watch TV. I haven't been at it long enough to make a noticeable difference yet though

Disabling downvotes here is a big one especially when you compare the benefit you get for so little effort.

I was going to say water flossing but I've been forgetting to do it recently.
