Articles on Health | Topics: health, healthy
by Nori Vazquez
I used to think that reading articles on health was pointless at best and probably pretty counter-productive. You see, every day there was new health news on tv, and yet I never seemed to do anything. When I would see an article on health telling me, for example, that the food I was eating was bad for my heart or that more exercise would increase my longevity, it would make me feel more depressed about the way that I was living. I would not do anything to change it. Getting in shape seemed like such an impossible task, and it was so much easier to give in to apathy.
Now I know that the right article on health can really make a difference in the way that you live. It is all a matter of hearing the right thing at the right time. Inspiration, after all, can come from the least likely of places. In my case, it was one of those bland health articles on fitness that you see in the paper every day. They all say more or less the same thing, but this particular article on health somehow grabbed me for some reason. Rather than telling me that I had to exercise 3 or 4 times every single week for at least half an hour at a time, it told me that any exercise was better than no exercise. The important thing, the fitness article counseled, was to get started somewhere.

... what a family is without a steward, a ship without a pilot, a flock without a shepherd, a body without a head, the same, I think, is a kingdom without the health and safety of a good monarch.

After reading that article on health, I decided that I would do just that. I started off at a slow pace. The next day, I simply stretched, put on some sweats, and jogged once around the block. I was exhausted by the time that I got back, but at the same time, I was proud of myself. I felt that, for the first time in quite a while, I had really accomplished something. Within a month, I was up to half an hour of running every day. The article on health was right. You did not need to start off at a furious rate, getting everything done at once. The important thing was to start somewhere. Nowadays, I read at least an article on health or two every day. It is easier to get inspired now that I know that there are things I can do to improve my health. The important thing is to get started somewhere.
