One of the best way to teach Beau about the importance of being active and curious is to model this behavior yourself. Get regular exercise, eat healthy food and show interest in learning new things.
Try to encourage Beau to participate in activities he enjoys, this could be sports, clubs or volunteer organizations
Provide positive reinforcements when he participates in activities by praising him or offering gifts. This will help him to feel good about himself and to be more likely to continue participating in activities in the future.
Be patient, it takes time for people to change habits. do not get discouraged and just keep encouraging them and providing them with opportunities to participate in activities.
Talk to Beau about his interests: What does he like to do in his freetime. What's he passionate about,
Make it fun: Try to find aways to make activities fun and engaging. If he doesn't like sports try new activity like hiking, biking, rock climbing, swimming.
Be a role model: Show Beau that you are active and curious about life. Talk to them about your own interest and hobbies, invite them to join you in activities that you enjoy.
Set limit on screen time: Too much screen time can be a major contributor to inactivity. Set limits on how much time your teenager can spend on their phone.
Expose him to new experience: Take him to places, introduce him to new people and encourage him to try new things.
