Menopause Guide to an Active Healthy Life – #1
Posted by: | CommentsWe Americans think of health as activity. We are healthy if we can “DO IT”. When we can go to work, take care of ourselves and our “stuff”, we consider ourselves healthy. That is why when we need to change to prevent problems, we don’t. We don’t like change to prevent problems. As long as we can GO, we don’t think we need to change.
Then there is the issue of healthy eating. I see patients that are overweight who tell me they eat healthy. That is how they say it “I think I eat healthy”. Yet they are overweight. In our country so many people are obese that we think people that are overweight are “NORMAL”. Here is the thing, you need to have an ideal amount of fat and muscle and that muscle needs to be able to do some work and needs to be required to do that work regularly.
We work while seated or with a minimum of activity. Indoor walking short distances, standing and prolonged sitting is the norm for the majority. The men who pick up my garbage are all slim. Even the men over 40. They walk, lift and pull all day, every day in all kinds of weather. Most of us don’t want that job and most of us carry too great an amount of fat in our bellies and under our skin. It isn’t good for us.
Bruce and I are going to try to explain what is healthy eating. How much food should you eat? What can you do to develop new habits of awareness or some call this awareness “Mindfullness”. What are healthy choices at the supermarket? What is it that you really want?
The first video by Anne is to introduce the concept of slow change. Also to let you know that Anne is available to help you. As a part of this program you will be able to connect with Anne live through the power of internet telecommunications to discuss problems, frustrations and to hear Anne’s coaching advice. She can’t be your “Health Care Provider” or part of that team, but she can be a coach and an encourager of healthy behaviors. OK, here is Anne and Video one:

Health Problems and Concerns Poll
Posted by: | CommentsPatients in our practice come to us with a variety of complaints. It is easy to help them because we know specifically what they want helped. We know if they want relief, reassurance or some advice. Sometimes they just need to talk and have us listen.
This poll is to help us understand the wants, needs and desires of our readers. Most of you are just readers. We understand that you want information at low cost and anonymously. This poll allows you to remain anonymous but provide us with information about your most important concerns with your life and health. A flaw is that is does not distinguish age groups or the sex of respondents. We assume most of you are women ages 40 and up. Let us know what you want to know. Look for these polls regularly. Thanks
