Build a Healthier You

Build a Healthier You
Build a Healthier Community
Lower Health Care Costs

It starts with you; a commitment to use the gift you were given at birth – your body. You are an important link in our entire health care system. When you stay healthy, it’s more likely your family will be healthy, your peers will be healthy, your neighbors will be healthy, and your community will be healthy. Your decisions multiply as others engage others that engage others that change behavior that change norms that change our culture that change our community, that change our nation. You are the beginning domino, the stone that creates the ripple, the vote that counts, the snow that begins the avalanche, the Paul Revere of our community. It begins with you!

There are many critical parts of living a healthy life. Some we can impact with simply choices like eat more fruit, laugh more often, breathe more deeply, smile, sing, skip and pray. However, others take more effort both mentally and physically like eat less, move more, find quiet in your life, listen intently without interruption, heal a wounded relationship. These are health actions that open the spirit and find new connections to a meaningful life.

I invite you to join in building health; and then inspire your family and friends with your choices and accomplishments.

We all need you to be healthy!

Keep Moving
Chris
