It is International Men's Health week June 10 - 16, and this year we are celebrating it's 30th anniversary🎈 This year we focus on the importance of men's health and hope we can promote and encourage the different ways we can keep men and boys healthier. Steve Collins, Senior Physiotherapist and Clinical Educator from our Redcliffe clinic talks about how important physical health is to men's mental health. Just getting out and moving more can have significant advantages to overall health to those who participate. Some other shocking facts about Men's health: 1. 10 men a day die from physical inactivity 2. Most men aren't active enough to stay healthy 3. Being unfit can be as bad for you as smoking What movement will you make sure you do this week and beyond, to keep healthy and to start a healthy habit. Gardening, playing with your kids / grandkids, playing sport, attending the gym, sitting less. 🏃🌱⚽ #menshealthweek #dva #exerciseforhealth

Remember the adage-"Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime. The same is true about health and well-being. What can we teach the men and boys in our lives about how to thrive at life? ##MensHealthMonth #MensHealth #HealthyMen#LifespanGenderGap#riverhillschc!

As someone living with chronic pain, attending events can be challenging without the right accommodations. Here’s what makes it possible for me to participate comfortably: ~ A later start (10 am or later) – I need time for my body to adjust and for pain medications to take effect. ~ Close proximity to public transport – The farther the venue, the more energy I use just getting there & resulting pain. ~ Access to an elevator – Stairs can be a barrier, and.... not just for me. ~ Short sessions with frequent breaks – Long, drawn-out sessions increase fatigue and discomfort. ~ Supportive seating – Proper back support is essential for managing my pain. ~ Free space at the back – This allows me to stand and move around without disrupting others. While these needs are unique to me, accessible changes benefit a wide range of people, from those with different disabilities to non-disabled individuals. Small adjustments create a more inclusive environment where everyone can can articipate comfortably. As a person living with chronic illness or chronic pain, what accommodations do you require to attend events comfortably? Let me know below :) #chronicPain #chronicIllness

Last week I finished reading ‘Just One Heart’ by Jonathan Fisher, MD, FACC Today I sat in my garden and wrote a review, here’s what I wrote about it on Goodreads: ‘Just One Heart takes the reader on an integrative journey of the heart and being human. It explores different layers of heart health through the lens of mindbodyspirit, seamlessly blending personal experience, professional experience (including case studies), science & contemplative traditions. The case studies are great examples of seeing & understanding the whole person and providing whole person compassionate care, this needs to be the norm in all healthcare settings. Each chapter contains practices that can support wellness & living with awareness in a compassionate, open & whole hearted way. Although the focus of the book is around the many facets that are entwined to create heart health and whole person health it goes deeper than this and it links into the connectedness of everything. It is clear that this book is written from a compassionate and heartfelt place and it contains much wisdom. It’s a book to dip back into and to engage frequently with the practices offered in it. It’s an important read for everyone.’ #justoneheart #hearthealth #wholepersonhealth #integrativehealth #compassion #connectedness #wellness #wellbeing #mindbody #mindbodyspirit #positivepsychology
