Don't forget the "Me Time"!

Most of us have heard the flight attendant briefing telling us to 'put our own air mask on before assisting someone else' . This advice has so much practical advice throughout all areas of our lives, but it is especially important to take heed when you make a living taking care of other people. 

Career-related stress can have a very negative impact on our health. One of the most common results being the demands of balancing work and family can leave us too exhausted at the end of the day to properly care for our bodies through good nutrition and adequate exercise. If we fail to practice preventative care for ourselves, we will not be available to fulfil our duties to the seniors in our care.

If you are reading this newsletter, you are probably involved in the decision to provide fitness classes for the seniors in your care. You have certainly witnessed the long-term effects of neglecting preventative care of the body in many of your residents. This newsletter is dedicated to the staff and administration of our senior living communities – to serve as a wake-up call that NOW is the time to begin taking care of your health through proper nutrition, adequate sleep and a renewed commitment to your own physical fitness.  

Live 2 B Healthy® is committed to helping seniors, and

those who care for them,

maintain health and wellness for the duration of their lives. To that end, we provide on-going health and nutrition information for all ages on our blog and our social media outlets.  

We also have a FREE Self-Starter Staff Fitness program that is accessible to all staff members of each community with an on-going senior fitness contract.  With our FREE Self-Starter program, employees can exercise in the comfort of their own home or at the gym. There are programs for Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.  The program is available at :  FitstaffLive2BHealthy.com . To download the program, contact us for your password. 

If you or your staff is interested in getting information about taking your fitness to the next level, speak to your local Regional Owner. They can arrange to add a Staff Fitness class to your schedule, or many of them do offer one-on-one personal training with any of their professional Certified Personal Trainers. Sometimes, that extra professional coaching is just what you or one of your staff may need to get them started on a rewarding path towards a lifetime of health and fitness.
