​The Most Valuable Gift
Quality Life Forum ​Advocacy and Empowerment Series​
Dec, 2018

If asked for the most valuable in life, what would come to your mind? Happiness? Wealth? Family? Youthfulness? ...... Yes for all, and first comes your HEALTH. The value of health is the number “1”, and everything else will follow by adding “0”s after it, making the wealth value grow and remarkable. However, when the “1” falls, then all the “0”s counts for nothing. Thus, health is your most valuable asset. It’s great if you have a good health insurance plan; however, investing in health is better than focus on health care.

I knew a brilliant engineer in his late 50’s , with successful career and family life, was diagnosed with end stage lung cancer and passed away less than 2 years afterwards. He was a long time heavy smoker (more than one pack a day) and also obese. The sadness overshadowed me for a long time. Too often,  people don’t pay enough attention to the value of health and the importance of daily healthy life style until the fatality shock.

Understand the true value of health is such a good lesson learned and too important to ignore. Health is the best gift you well-deserve. Life is busy, and to value health means to make it a priority in your life. If not, your health will worsen as your body is aging, you will face challenges when your body is not fully functionally operating, experience pain and suffering, loss freedom and independence of life, and your life may be cut short.

Are you fully aware what you need to do for enhance optimal quality of life of your life span,? Are you doing your best? Need motivation? Get lost somewhat? Trying out by errors? Frustrated with set-backs?

Health coaching can help you get started and stay on track on your wellness journey.  Talk to me to find out how a personalized health coaching program can help you achieve your health goals. Feel free to check it out – the initial call is at no cost and with no obligations.

Good health is more than free of illness or suffering. It also includes healthy weight and healthy life style maintenance, mental and physical well-being. A healthy body feels good, energetic, and full of life.
              
Mindset can build health or take away from it. Negative thoughts are toxic. Aware of this can give you power over your mental and physical health.  You are accountable for building your well-being.
​
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is about more than showering regularly and brushing teeth at night. It’s about keep your body active through regular exercise and commitment to eat healthy. It’s about making good judgments on a series of life choices on daily basis. It’s about to keep up learning evidence based health science and not misled by myth or fraud.

Important decisions have to be made on daily basis, such as -
  • Get up for a walk or stay on the couch watching TV? Furthermore, what fitness program is right for me? Am I too old to get results on belly fat loss?
  • Eat breakfast or not? Eat in or out? What and how much to cook/order for dinner?
  • Drink beer, or soda, or tea, or water, or regular or decaffeinated coffee?
  • Do I need Vitamin or other supplements? What’s the benefits and risks?
  • How much night sleep do I need? Can I catch up later? Should I take sleeping aids?
  • What to do when I stressed out? How much control do I have?
  • Is my feelings important? Should I talk about my feelings? With who?
  • How to deal with chronic health conditions?

Life is a series of choices and as we get older, the choices we make have a lasting impact on us. What healthy choices have you made to date? Have you been behaving consistently? Or if you have not been making these decisions consciously, think about your health value seriously.

Prioritize your health; you are worth of it. A customized private coaching program will be perfect for a kick-off start from getting up from the couch, or develop a personalized healthy life style, or target a specific health concerns, or manage chronic conditions by therapeutic lifestyle, or breakthrough loneliness and depression, or for what your special needs may be.
​
Your health is most valuable. Don’t take it granted; it requires your commitment and you are accountable for life lone maintenance effort. Act now, the health journey begin with your first step today and a small step every day.  To get started, contact me at
qualitylifeforum@outlook.com to find out how health coaching can help you get to where you want to be, from where you are now. The initial call is totally free – it’s my free gift for you. 

Happy Holidays.
