Engagement in one’s own health and wellbeing has been shown to be one of the most important indicators in a person’s overall health. And for those battling chronic illnesses, the more the patient is engaged in their treatment plans and therapies, the more likely they are to get better than those unengaged patients with similar illnesses, treatment plans, and therapies. Some data also indicates people who are more engaged in their health see overall financial savings, which is never a bad thing.
So why is this important to me? Because as women, we are seen by many of those around us to be leaders, friends, guidance counselors, caregivers, and, most importantly, parents. And because we care deeply about those we work with, play with, live with, and love, we must be more than just examples of health but also inspire them to be healthy.
So, I thought I would provide a few thoughts on how you can be an inspiration of health to others in your everyday life.
