Eliminate bad habits. If you smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol, limit yourself and slowly try to give up. Identify other bad habits in your life and develop a plan for eliminating them.
Relax and enjoy life. Life in the 21st century is very stressful and stress has been linked to a number of illnesses because it weakens our immune systems. If relaxing doesn't come easy to you, try an activity like yoga, tai chi or meditation.
