I've started to write this week's blog several times today and keep deleting it, as I'm aware it sounds very sanctimonious and dull. I'm realising that my view of health and well-being is quite different to many other people I know. I really do think about and plan for long-term health and well-being in a way that it seems not many other people do.... apart from a former Olympic rower I met recently, who was talking to a group of newly-qualified teachers: she asked how many people use the phrase "Life's too short!" to justify less healthy choices, and went on to say that life doesn't have to be short, it can be long and fruitful and enjoyable. Making a healthy choice does not necessarily mean it's boring (or you're boring), it just means that you are investing in yourself and that you see the benefits of a long-term plan. Silently, I rejoiced as she said this, as finally I had come across someone who has a similar outlook to mine (which is where the similarities ended, as her upper body strength far outclassed mine!). Taking stock of what you do for your long-term well-being is an investment, not a denial process; it's what you and your body deserve.
