Happy Valentine’s Day – not just for lovers.
I wanted to address this day of “love”.
Most people approach this day thinking it is a Holiday only for lovers.
We teach the kids to give out cards to their friends to show them they care, and on that special day, if you are in a relationship… there are cards, candy, flowers and romance. But I want to think of this day as a day to show appreciation for who YOU are. I keep thinking of all the ways we show love for others, but how do we show it for ourselves? I want to ask you… what are you doing to honor yourself today? You know the old quote “ you have to love yourself before you can love someone else.” Let’s put that into action. Do something nice for YOU. Celebrate and love YOU. If you treat yourself with respect and love – you will have so much more to give!
Have a wonderful day!
A Health Coach
"We start with basic things like listening skills," says Julie Kosey, Duke's integrative health coaching manager, who also was Kathy Hare's coach. "We teach how to be present with a person, to listen deeply and understand their goals and motivation. We let the client hold the agenda."
Also critical to helping people adapt a healthier lifestyle, says Linda Smith, director of programs for Duke Integrative Medicine, is understanding and appreciating the patient's idea of an ideal lifestyle -- be it walking three miles a day or simply being able to perform basic household chores -- rather than telling the patient to lose 30 pounds or lower his or her cholesterol 50 points.
