EBOOKS AND AUDIO
FILES
First up
here's the
link the ebooks and audio files (no videos yet) that can form
the basis of a continuous health, fitness and wellbeing campaign
for your staff.
In the main the books come with a seminar presentation, but
they're sustainable in their own right.
A WEEK AT A TIME
The suggestion is that
you run a particular campaign for at least a week. You can
distribute the books by email (attachment) and prepare
follow-up messages throughout the weeks, based on sections of
the ebooks.
HOW TO GET A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP WEEK
The 'How to get a Good Night's Sleep' ebook and the audio
file that goes with it form the basis of the 'sleep week'. A
high proportion of people don't sleep as well as they'd like.
Some take longer than they feel they need to get to sleep. Some
keep waking up during the night. Some don't get as much of the
deep sleep as they know they need. As for the audio file, of
people can find a way to get it onto their phones, all they need
to do is stick in the ear piece, crank up the audio file and
drift off with the fairies.
HEALTH CLIMATE SURVEY
Send every one a copy of the Health Climate Survey. Encourage
them to fill it in and then lets see at the time of the next
health seminar
if they've been able to lower their score. The information is
personal - not for sharing.

Those who complete it can be given any of the following tokens
of appreciation!

GREEN TEA WEEK
Too much caffeine at
work is probably not a good idea. If you had a program to wean
people of coffee and 'ordinary' tea and replace it with green
tea, then they may avoid the ups and downs that come with
caffeine addiction.
How 'bout a green tea week?
We want to encourage people to re-hydrate through the day
without 'weighing' themselves down with caffeine.
The benefits of green tea are legion. |

WATER BOTTLE - and bag
Have you thought about giving your staff a water bottle. The
nature of the bottle would depend on where they work.
The object of the exercises is to drink 'n' bottles of water a
day.
What better look is there than a water bottle at the front
of a ute, truck or grader?
'What ever
you do, just don't smoke.'
|
Believe it or not there are still people who still smoke. The
cost to their health - and the housekeeping - is high.
A small percentage are incorrigible. They're not ready to give
up. They don't want to be nagged. But give the encouragement,
there is a percentage who would like to give 'giving up' a try.
The program outlines the costs of smoking
and the benefits of breathing just fresh air.
It comes with an inner mental training
program.

LOW ALCOHOL BEER
They say that a 'hard earned thirst needs a big cold beer.'
But do people drink for the taste or the
alcoholic kick.
A suggestion. Get Coopers to 'sponsor' your health days.
Introduce your staff to a next-to-no-alcohol beer. The beer is
available from Woolworths super markets. A Coopers Birrell beer
and a few nibbles at some of your social functions maybe just the way
to get people thinking about taste, and not
just 'alcohol'. |

20M RUN - test of aerobic fitness
The 20m run is the gold standard test of
metabolic health for 'regular folks'. Most people have had
every test under the sun to determine their metabolic health
status but never the 20m run.
All people have to do is see how many laps of
a 20m course they can complete in 5 minutes - walk, shuffle,
jog or run.
|
Participants
receive a copy of the 20m run ebook that
includes information about what their scores
mean.
Anyone who
completes the test and comes forward to
share their results is certainly worthy of a
health campaign token of appreciation! |
