208: Why Do All of this Healthy Stuff?

from The Health Courage Collective · host Christina Hackett

If doing the healthy behaviors that you feel like you should do always feels like an endless, joyless uphill battle, maybe it’s because you think {q} “being healthy,” -whatever that even means-, is an end in and of itself.  An end that you should obviously want.  That you should be scared of not achieving.  But that’s backward.  Keeping our reasons for creating a healthy physiology in the proper perspective is so easy to overlook.  But seeing things clearly changes everything about how it feels to do the hard work of putting more years lived in good health in your future.come connect with me:  www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me directly: [email protected] my Udemy Course about Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy$10 off EYE BUY DIRECT: https://www.eyebuydirect.com/referral/1615995 Lume Deoderant discount: http://lumedeodorant.refr.cc/christinahackett $10 off coupon for your first order at Built Bar.

Instead of viewing health as an end goal, the discussion focuses on using health to enhance one's life and character. The episode dives into the concept of character development through the lens of famous figures and the distinction between 'resume virtues' and 'eulogy virtues.' By caring for one's physical body akin to a musician caring for their instrument, individuals can better engage in life's challenges and personal growth. The importance of maintaining perspective on health and utilizing it to mature morally and spiritually is emphasized, ultimately aiming to add more years lived in good health.00:00 Introduction: The True Meaning of Health00:46 Welcome and Magnesium Check01:29 Caring for Your Instrument: A Metaphor for Health02:53 Challenging Health Norms and Values06:05 The Deeper Purpose of Aging Well08:58 The Struggle for Character and Virtue13:20 The Importance of Humility and Wisdom19:32 Final Thoughts: Health as a Means to an EndAre you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?  Join the waitlist for my new beta program here and help me figure out how best to help wonderful women like you get the hormone care they deserve!Join the Waitlist HereCome visit me: www.healthcouragecollective.comemail me: [email protected]
