Episode #73: Balancing Activity and Rest as a Strategy for a Healthy Lifestyle and the Obstacles That Get in Our Way!
Introduction to Episode:
As healthcare leaders we know you are managing numerous changes and significant challenges while recovering from or moving through another COVID-19 surge.
If you are like many of the healthcare leaders we talk with you are overwhelmed and overworked, stressed out, and you may even be experiencing “change fatigue”.
While experiencing all of that, you are driven to support your team and community, which leads to the tug-of-war feeling between your desire to serve and support others and your own need and desire to live a healthy lifestyle.
Being active and getting adequate rest are key components of a healthy lifestyle but you may or may not realize that often these are the things that are sacrificed when workloads and demands increase.
In this episode we talk about the importance of having a strategy and some of the obstacles that get in the way.
Truth is, you can keep making the same choices you are making and put your health at risk or make more mindful choices and take the first steps toward establishing and sustaining a healthy lifestyle, so you can thrive! The choice is yours!
In the Episode We Discuss:
· Using a blueprint as an action strategy
· Activity and Rest are an interdependent pair
· Two key obstacles to activity and rest
· Embracing the identity of a healthy person
· The power of commitment
· The role of self-integrity
· The impact of self-talk and stories
· What will happen if you don’t act now?
