Today's Wellness Pathway is brought to you by Kevin Eikenberry and Marianne
Robinson. Kevin sends out a daily "power quote"
Click. His quote for Thursday
came from the 19th century Dutch artist, Vincent Van Gogh: "Great things are not
done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together."
That's never more true than when it comes to health and wellness. No matter how
hard we try, there is no way to lose all that weight, to run all those miles, or
to release all that stress today. Great things are not done that way. They are
done by a series of small thing, brought together.
Marianne Robinson, Program Manager of the Faculty and Staff Wellness Program at
the Ohio State University, sends out a weekly Wellness Tip
Click. She recently reprinted a
list of twelve small things we can do for health and wellness, taken from the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
Click. These small things, brought together, can quickly add up to greatness
1. Skip the buffet.
2. Do sit-ups in front of the TV.
3. Avoid food portions larger than your fist.
4. Walk instead of driving whenever you can.
5. Sit up straight at work.
6. Eat breakfast every day.
7. Ask a friend to exercise with you.
8. Drink 100% fruit juices over soda and sugary drinks.
9. Play with your kids 30 minutes a day.
10. Drink lots of water.
11. Choose a physical activity that fits into your daily routine.
12. Snack on fruits and vegetables.
Coaching Inquiries: Which of these small things do you already do on a regular
basis? Which could you easily incorporate into to your routine? Would it help to
pay attention to all twelve, every day, for a single week? How could you get up
and get going? Who could assist you to make these twelve small steps a regular
part of your identity and lifestyle?
