Ever wondered why men’s health needs more attention? Consider this: Men have a 41% higher mortality rate than women. Suicide is the leading cause of death for men under 45.. 41.6% of men over the age of 20 in the US are obese. It’s International Men’s Health Week this week, but what does that really mean? We’ll tell you what it doesn’t mean. Talking about going to the gym, making a smoothie, popping some painkillers for that shoulder injury you’ve had for a bit too long… It’s about prevention, making sustainable changes and forming new habits to improve your life. No, you don’t need to become Giga Chad, podcast bro Superman overnight (if you want to, we’ll cheer on from the sidelines though). It’s about those small, daily wins – getting up 30 mins earlier to walk to work instead of driving, cooking dinner with your partner instead of sitting on the sofa individually scrolling while waiting for Uber Eats, taking the stairs instead of the escalator, skipping the beer for a soda water once or twice a week, spending 20 minutes reading before bed instead of rewatching that funny episode of whatever sitcom you’re binge-watching now. And no, don’t tackle everything at once. Start with one aspect of your life that needs the most attention. The rest will follow. As for which aspect to figure out and choose? We’ve sorted that for you. Meet The Wheel of Life: six important facets of life that, when optimized individually, create a balanced and fulfilling life. Which will you be taking action on this week? #MensHealthWeek #Pitstop #HealthyHabits #LifeBalance

Time blocking gone wrong! 😂 A lot of you all got quiet after this one! But it’s true. Look at your calendar and tell me what type of appointments are on there that you BLOCKED out time for.. 👀 What’s on your schedule right now that is dedicated to pouring into yourself by focusing on your health & wellness? Don’t worry… I’ll wait 😇 This is a form of setting boundaries. Put this time into your calendar and stick to it. When you look good, you feel good. When you feel good, you show up even better and prepared to serve in your purpose. Now, I’m giving you more homework. If you have nothing blocked off, I’m going to challenge you to schedule 2-15 minute blocks for yourself next week. Just 2! Stay consistent week after week, then add from there. To be honest, all you need is 15 minutes to start! Grab your e-book for your action plan: https://lnkd.in/eEyAGsNi #workplacewellbeing #healthandwellness #selfcare #speaker 📍Baltimore BizCon

Taking a moment to reflect on these powerful words I stumbled upon today: If we don't carve out time for our wellness, we'll be cornered into making time for our illness. It's a stark reminder that self-care isn't a luxury; it's a necessity. In the hustle of life, we often sideline our well-being, but our health shouldn't be a compromise. It's a call to action I’m taking to heart. Wellness over illness, every time. Let's not wait until we have no choice but to listen to our bodies. Let's listen now. Will you join me in this commitment to self-care? It's not selfish; it's self-respect, self-love. Who's with me? #SelfCare #HealthFirst #WellnessReminder

Hi Mr Hardworker, I wanted to share a personal message with you. As it is Men's Health Day today, your health matters more than wealth. People often say health is wealth, but the truth is, a dead man isn't counting the zeros in his bank account. Take time to relax, go for a walk, spend time with friends or family, watch a movie—step out of your hectic routine and remember to stay hydrated. This is my message to you on #MensHealthDay. #HealthMatters #SelfCare #WorkLifeBalance #menshealthweek.

June is Men’s Health Month. An important time to raise awareness of the unique health concerns impacting men, providing necessary resources to improve overall wellbeing, and encouraging open conversations about men’s health. It’s extremely important for men to stay healthy; whether a working professional or a devoted caretaker. Taking time to build upon your own health is the greatest gift you can give your family, your career, and, most importantly, yourself. Implementing regular exercise, healthy eating habits, stress reducing activities, and routine healthcare check-ups and screenings. 👆🏽These are some of the most critical elements to sustain a health-first lifestyle! Men, take the time to pause and recognize the importance of your health. Your health is extremely important to being your best both personally and professionally. Take the time you deserve to look inward vs only looking outward. #MensHealthMonth

👨⚕️ It's Men's Health Week! 🚹 Men's Health Week is dedicated to raising awareness about the health issues men face and encouraging them to take proactive steps towards better health. It's a time to focus on physical, mental, and emotional well-being, and to promote healthy lifestyle choices. The theme for 2024 is “Let’s Talk Prostates,” inspired by King Charles, whose sharing of his own experience led to nearly double the number of online health checks. This proves that talking about it works, so let’s start the conversation! #MensHealthWeek #Wellness #HealthyLiving #MensHealthMatters
