My writing (250-300 words)
When I look at all the different approaches to health, I notice you can divide them into 2 different categories: Health From and Health for
Health From is when people aim to be healthy because they’re afraid
They’re afraid of getting sick They’re afraid of looking unattractive They’re afraid of death They’re afraid of being weak
And that’s fine, but it’s completely different from Health For
What is ‘Health For’?
It’s when you choose to be healthy not because you’re trying to avoid something. But because there’s something you want to do or experience
I want to be healthy so that I can play with my kids I want to be healthy so that I can hike and travel I want to be healthy so that I can enjoy my old age
Are you in a health from? or in a health for? state of mind
