Mother's Day is only a few days away and there are plenty of healthy ways to show your mom, wife, or significant other you love her, aside from the traditional breakfast in bed or brunch out on the town. Show your  love  in ways that help her take care of herself;  Heaven knows moms generally put themselves on the bottom of the totem pole. Here are a few ideas to inspire a healthy lifestyle, so you can share many more Mother's Days together.

Plan a hike or bike ride together — get her a lumbar pack and fill it with healthy snacks

Some home fitness equipment like a gym ball, resistance band or tube, dumbbells, or a weighted hula hoop — get her a DVD to go along with it
Sign the two of you up for a fitness or wellness retreat

Spend the morning at a farmers' market and then make lunch together
