WELCOME TO…

For the Health of It, a playful and insightful exploration of our health. Enjoy light-hearted insights, activities, resources and a plain old ‘good read’ about the areas that comprise our health and well-being.

ABOUT THE BLOG

For the health of it – an expression that plays off an old cliché. While playful, health is a serious topic. Serious enough that we spend exorbitant amounts of time, energy and resources trying to attain and maintain good health. We do this because we’re told to, because we know it’s the right thing to do and because inherently we know that being healthy is the foundation of our lives -- not to mention that it feels just plain great to be healthy, like a bit of heaven on earth.

RULES OF THE GAME

There are no rules. Just play. Enjoy the time to just ‘be’. OK, one little rule (I look at it more as the prize) – take the time you deserve and need for some play in your busy day. Collect your winnings during and after each round of play…

During play: Be mindful – aware, notice – what you are feeling, thinking. Notice if you are focusing on the game or if your mind wondering about what you think you should be doing instead.

At the end of playing, ask yourself… How did it feel to take this time to play? What did you learn or insights did you have? What will you do with that insight today, tomorrow, next week?
