Health First!

For Ladies, It’s Time To Put Your Health First..

• many women are great at caring for others but often put themselves last.

• So we are encouraging women to make time to better care for their health…

• Try to add this simple things to your day list:

Fitness…

Making time to exercise and live a healthy active lifestyle will likely reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke, diabetes and metabolic syndrome, depression and anxiety, as well as colon, breast and possibly lung and endometrial cancer.

Spend at least 30 minutes a day doing a moderate activity such as walking. 

Three 10-minute sessions are just as effective as 30 minutes of continuous activity.

Nutrition…

• Invest time in your nutrition by shopping fresh and preparing your meals at home, or swapping unhealthy snacks for healthier options (such as your afternoon biscuit for a piece of fruit).

Have Fun…

• Jean Hailes for Women’s Health also invites women to host their own. It could be a morning tea, a fun health information session, a workplace gathering, a book club session, a bike ride, or even just a walk with friends – whatever you like! It’s easy and fun.

Sleep…

• can have negative effects on your productivity, your memory, your mental health and your immune function.
• So you need to sleep around seven to eight hours each night. To improve your mind and health.
