WHERE ARE YOU IN YOUR HEALTH JOURNEY?
by Ngozi Osuagwu, MD | May 12th, 2019

National Women’s Health Week kicks off on Mother’s Day, May 12th and is celebrated through May 18th, 2019. This week is a time for all women to make their health a priority and for us to build positive habits for life. There is no one size fits all. Our health is a lifelong journey. It is personal. It is unique. It is yours. We all have different goals. We all have different motivations. Where are you in your health journey and where do you want to go?
What can we all do?
- Make sure you are up to date with your well woman visit which includes getting all your screening tests and vaccinations.
- Be active – Keep moving.
- Eat healthy – be mindful of what you are eating.
- Pay attention to your mental health – get enough sleep and learn to manage stress.
- Practice safe behaviors – quit smoking, no texting while driving, and take steps to protect yourself from sexually transmitted infections.

The Dalai Lama when asked what surprised him most about humanity answered:
“Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
