Deep Health is a holistic approach to wellness that goes beyond the typical focus on strength, appearance, and physical goals. It aims to address the multifaceted aspects of health and promote long-term changes and behaviors that can increase both Lifespan and Healthspan.
The concept of Healthspan is important because it emphasizes the value of extending the period of well-being in one's life. When a person surpasses their Healthspan, it means they are living with chronic illness or degenerative conditions that negatively impact their quality of life. Most people would agree that minimizing the gap between Lifespan and Healthspan is desirable, meaning fewer years spent living with poor health before reaching the end of life.
Deep Health acknowledges that the choices we make in various areas of our lives can either contribute to improving our Healthspan and Lifespan or lead us down a path of decreasing health and reduced lifespan. It highlights the importance of making conscious decisions regarding nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep, mental health, and other lifestyle factors that influence our overall well-being.
it is never too late to make a positive change in your health and wellness.
Make a commitment to yourself to have DEEP HEALTH.
