Precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, maintenance

Explanation:

Changing to a healthy lifestyle can be mental or physical! Precontemplation is the stage at which there is no intention to change behavior in the foreseeable future. Many individuals in this stage are unaware or under-aware of their problems." Some people call this phase "denial.

Contemplation is whilst in the life of the intellect 'contemplation' refers to thinking profoundly about something, in the religious life contemplation is a kind of inner vision or seeing, transcendent of the intellect, facilitated by means of practices such as prayer or meditation.

Preparation is the stage which you prepare yourself to conquer these changes! You can do this in many ways. You can do whatever makes you happy. You can also try to get a good idea of what you are trying to challenge!

Action is a hard one. This is where you take full action at what you are trying to change... To do this step you must completely fulfill preparation. Taking action is very important because without this step all of the other ones would be pointless!

Maintenance is all up to YOU. You can either chose to maintain the healthy lifestyle you chose. Or you can forget it which is not so good. To maintain the lifestyle you must proceed to keep it healthy and balanced!

Hope this helps you!! (took a long time haha)

just be there for her.

explanation:

not necessarily literally but figuratively. also don't say things like "i understand how you feel", because even though you are trying to , you clearly don't understand how she feels (i'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume you've never had a heart attack). also just let her rest. that is one of the best things for you to do.
