First of all, you make good natural, organic food more affordable. You can't ask people to do the right thing and have it be five times more expensive.

Autistic children are extremely bright if you can connect to them and bring them into our world. Socially it’s really hard for them, but it can happen.

Tisha Campbell-Martin

I'm in the best space, emotionally and physically, that I've ever been. I took some time away from any type of media where I just felt like I would have to explain myself and took some time to not explain myself to anybody except myself. I got along with God a little bit. I meditated some. And I juiced. I went on a sixty-day juice feast.

Chrisette Michele

This wasn't about vanity, this was about health. And I want to make it clear to those who are rocking the [size] 16s like I was [that] 16s are great. Like rock it, if that's you. And if I hadn't gotten diabetes, I wouldn't have lost a pound.

Yvette Nicole Brown

Stigma is one of the main reasons why people with mental health problems don't seek treatment or take their medication. People of color, particularly African Americans, feel the stigma more keenly. In a race-conscious society, some don't want to be perceived as having yet another deficit.

Bebe Moore Campbell

I know how sometimes it’s hard for people to reach out and ask for help. Sometimes [Blacks] are so caught up in just going to church and praying about it. But God gave the doctor the brains to create a mental health protocol to help you. We have to recognize that.

Sheryl Underwood

Having an autistic son helps you have more empathy for others.

Duane Martin

We have to pay attention to one another, and have the strength and courage to say, "Let's get some help."

Jenifer Lewis

I try to tell most parents ‘don’t dismiss the signs.’ It’s OK. When you find out early, you can get them all the help they need.

Toni Braxton

You have to take care of yourself first because if you’re running on empty, you cannot give to others.

Tisha Campbell-Martin

This has been one of the hardest things that I’ve ever encountered in my life, but it’s almost like my whole life I’ve been preparing for this.

Tisha Campbell-Martin

Minorities need to get tested for ovarian cancer. The earlier, the better. We tend to put ourselves on the backburner and take care of the family first. We need to pay attention to ourselves. Many women ignore the pain, thinking it’s only menstrual cramps. But it’s very serious. A pap smear doesn’t detect it. It’s a silent killer.

Countess Vaughn

I struggled for years with migraines and eczema. Changing my eating habits to a vegan lifestyle basically cured me of those ailments and has kept me feeling very healthy and full of life and energy.

Tia Mowry-Hardrict

If you sweat, you clean your skin, you are energizing your body and your brain functions well.

Debbie Allen

The number one key is to basically prioritize. I’m a mother and wife first because family is important to me, and a part of having a balanced life is not feeling guilty about taking care of yourself.

Tia Mowry-Hardrict

I refuse to drink a smoothie for breakfast to get down to a size 2. It's just not going to happen with me.

Viola Davis

So in order for you to be able to execute all of those different qualities as a woman and as a person, you have to take care of yourself.

Tia Mowry-Hardrict

A lot of people say video games can be bad for kids, but I disagree. I think it’s the best thing for an autistic kid. Their dexterity muscles to get sharpened. It helps their occupational therapy.

Toni Braxton

I still eat a donut, I just take 2-3 bites and throw it away. I use to eat like three or more. I don’t deny myself the treat.

Anthony Anderson

So I tell people, get those B-12 shots, get yourself checked out, get a cat scan as part of your physical that you do once a year. Get everything checked out just to be on the up and up because, again, no one thinks someone 23 will have a brain aneurysm.

Tamala Jones

A year ago, I started doing Ashtanga yoga five or six days a week. Even if I do 30 minutes, I can clear my head.

Paula Patton

I remember blaming myself; I thought it was my fault. I wish I knew what triggered it. Still, often, as a mom, I blame myself. I didn’t take my vitamins every day … maybe it was the medications I was on before I got pregnant.

Toni Braxton

You beat cancer by how you LIVE, why you live, and in the manner in which you live.

Stuart Scott

With physical failures like liver, kidneys, heart, something else has to be done, something fixable that’s not in one’s own hands. But if it’s in your hands, then you have to pay very close attention to it, rather than get depressed or unnerved or feel ashamed. None of that is useful.

Toni Morrison

The thing about being in denial and being in the closet and bowing down to stigma is you don't get any information.

Bebe Moore Campbell

I feel the difference if I've had a quality breakfast or if I've gone to the gym in the morning.

Mayor Aja Brown

I do get regular checkups. I even had the test where you have a monitor all night long. Because of our family history, I have also educated my children about their eating habits, their workout habits and things to look out for. More women die from heart disease than breast cancer.

Debbie Allen

Before I eat something now, I go, 'Is it worth your feet? Is it worth your feet? Do you want to walk? Or do you want to eat that?' And I kind of want to walk. And also, having my dad, I want to live longer. I have to take care of him so I have to take care of me.

Yvette Nicole Brown

Whether it’s your heart or your head or your legs or your arms, if it’s too much pain, the doctor’s the only place to go. Not staying at home and wondering if this is ever going to go away.
