The Self-ish Life Program

Let’s talk about physical activity shall we! There are two types of physical activity; unstructured and structured. Unstructured physical activity refers to movement that expends energy however not typically structured or planned, rather, it represents natural movement throughout a person’s day. These activities include a typical workday, walking the dog, lawnwork and cleaning the house. Structured physical activity is planned and intentional movement or exercise that are normally scheduled, with a predetermined date and time, have a set duration, may use fitness equipment and are led by someone with a certification or a degree in physical or sports education.

Both types of physical activity are important however, to lead a healthy lifestyle and to decrease our risk factors for acquiring chronic diseases, it’s crucial to participate in structured physical activity.  Jacki and Toby will talk through the statistics, the negative and positive impact of physical activity and provide you helpful tips to getting you on track!

People often cite lack of  “time”  as a barrier to focusing on our health and wellness.  In today’s society, we have been socialized to be “pleasers”, “role players”, and/or “servants”, giving others our time and attention (family, relationships, work, community, etc.).  Many find it hard to make time for ourselves, or identify and advocate for our own needs.  We subscribe to the notion that we will have “time” in the future, leaving us to either recover, reverse, or prepare for medical intervention for the lack of attention to our personal needs.  So just to summarize, if we don’t make time, time will be taken from us.  That includes the time needed for building our health, fitness and nutrition-related skills and behaviors.  Possibly impacting us financially, our personal quality of life, and even our lifespan on Earth.  We can have the life we want however it takes work, being intentional and strategic, in these areas of our life.  But it starts with “self”, ensuring you are fit and healthy to perform.  To do this, you must plan, prioritize and prepare to achieve success.  Join us in this discussion as we explore the importance of planning, prioritizing and preparing for success!  Supporting documents can be found at www.theself-ishlife.com.   Need a coach?  Contact me on our website or at https://procoach.app/jacki-weaver.
