I can’t afford a personal trainer or pricey health foods, so how am I supposed to get healthy? It just feels impossible.
It may feel impossible, but it’s not. Affordable changes can lead to powerful results. Wellbeing isn’t a luxury: it’s within your reach.
I know you have many other demands on your time and money, so the book offers many small but effective strategies that won’t add to your stress or deplete your bank balance. You don’t need a personal trainer or exotic and expensive foods to be healthy. I will show you what you need to do. Be prepared to find hope and self-belief as you build momentum and motivation.
Can you be healthy whatever your age?
Yes, you can. I will explain the research projects which studied people in their fifties and older and showed that change can happen at any age. For example, researchers found that “People who newly adopt a healthy lifestyle in middle-age experience a prompt benefit of lower rates of cardiovascular disease and mortality.” Another study looked at men between the ages of 50-72 taking part in an 8-week study. They found that the men who followed the lifestyle programme, decreased their biological age by almost 2 years in that eight-week period!
Do you know what you need to do but struggle to find the motivation?
I’m not surprised that this happens to you. So much advice involves building a huge new lifestyle with a strict plan about what you must do. I start from a different approach – putting you in charge of deciding what’s doable. Readers like that they can dip in and out of the book and choose what feels right for them. I make getting started as smooth and easy as possible, so you don’t need lots of willpower. When you see the benefits of these small changes, your motivation will catch up.
With easy steps that don't require willpower, you can reduce your risk of chronic illnesses and increase your joy in life. It's time to take control of your health and age well.
