Try this: Treat yourself every day

A glass of red wine with dinner.

Strolling along the beach at sunset.

Watching your favourite television show.

These are all little ways you can treat yourself every day.

Sir John Kirwan calls this filling his goody bag.

He makes sure he has something to look forward to every day, such as sharing a meal with friends, catching a movie, or trying a new recipe.
