About my health blog


What can you expect from my health blog?

The word 'health' can cover a multitude of topics and ideas and 'being healthy' will be expressed and understood by each of us in different ways.  When writing posts for my health blog, I intend to keep things fairly broad, recognising that health isn't simply about our physical body but it's about how we think and feel too.  As a Health Management Coach (www.michaelahyde.com) I work with individuals who want to feel good and boost energy and seek to do so through changes to their diet and day-to-day activity levels.  Teaching good nutrition is empowering for my clients, however, the long-term success of their changes will frequently be dependant on what is going on in their mind.  Learning to think differently about food and activity and identifying triggers is a crucial part of behaviour change which really isn't as simple as deciding to eat less cake and eat more greens!
 
 
As you read my health posts, I will of course cover eating and activity because they form a central part of my understanding of a healthy lifestyle but I will also look at other areas and I welcome your comments and suggestions of things you would like to know more about or see in my blog.  My mantra for my coaching is 'FEEL GOOD/ EAT WELL/ LIVE LIFE' and I believe that a healthy life is one that is balanced; enjoys, but is not ruled by food; has an active lifestyle (which needn't be lots of vigorous exercise); and a happy and fulfilled life - made more possible by the physical, mental and spiritual health choices we make.  I'm excited by the possibility within us to change and to take our lives in a different direction as a consequence and I hope my blog inspires you to become healthier - whatever that might mean to you.  Please do share my posts as often as possible and enable your friends and family to engage with my blog too. 
 
 
Thank you
Michaela

Enjoy a little sunshine toast in your life!
