HEALTH AND WELLNESS SPOTLIGHT
 
The Modern Life Athlete 
 
The Everyday Athlete... surprise, you are one of them!  You may not feel like an athlete, but the demands and challenges of modern life have become a challenging sport.  A delicate balance exists between achieving your goals without sacrificing your health in the process.  Is your body keeping up with the lifestyle you want to lead?  If you are like the majority of people, the answer is a resounding - no.  Aches and pains slow you down, and fear of re-aggravating an old injury prevents you from doing things you used to enjoy. If you are ready to make some positive changes in your health, write your own healthcare reform bill using the following guide.
 
Start by making a list of the things that you feel are slowing you down or keeping you from enjoying an active lifestyle.  Did you give up running because of an injury?  Do you have recurring or chronic pain?  Are you simply out of shape and unsure which activities will be safe for you?  Make your list specific enough that you can identify what is holding you back. 
 
Once you have your list, write down the next step required to move forward.  Some general steps will be simple: daily exercise, more sleep, or making healthy food choices.  Specific or complicated goals may require research and assistance to move forward; such as working through an old injury or relieving aches and pains so that you can safely increase your activity level.  If you are unsure of your next steps, arrange to work with a professional.
