Override Your Health Wellness Challenge & Fair
Begins Saturday, September 9
Have you ever thought about what it would look like to “live better longer”?
We live in a world riddled with heart disease, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and diabetes. I have personally seen the effect of how these diseases rob a person of their independence, making them frail and feeble as their health and vitality spiral downward. I don’t want to suffer a painful old age, and I bet you don’t either.
That’s why we're excited to be partnering with Stephanie Blozy and four other experts in the field of health and wellness to host “Override Your Health” - a free 6-week community wellness challenge inspired by the New York Times bestselling book, Outlive, by Dr. Peter Attia.
In his book, Dr. Attia explains the science and art of longevity. These are the things we need to do to not just extend the length of our lives, but to extend our healthspan too!
While our physical abilities naturally decline with age, we can slow those declines by maximizing our health right now! Even little changes in our hydration, nutrition, exercise, sleep and mental wellness can yield big results; which is why our challenge centers around those six themes.
In conjunction with Dr.Attia, we want to help teach you that longevity is malleable. No matter our current age, we have the power to create a better life for our future selves. We have to be the author of our own story.
While the challenge itself is virtual with bi-weekly e-newsletters and a private Facebook group for support, tips and a wealth of knowledge, we are hosting an in-person Wellness Fair to kick-off our Challenge on Saturday, September 9 from 11am-1pm (scroll for details).
I say “our challenge” because I’ve teamed up with five experts in the health and wellness field to help guide us through this 6-week challenge: Dr. Christine Najjar (Food First MD), Eric April (Override Athletics), Erin Prather (Fleet Feet), Jon Maneen, DPT (Rebound Performance PT) & Michele Beaule (Imagine Float).
I’ve personally worked all of these people to improve my healthspan, and most importantly, trust to help you do the same. You will be captivated by their extensive knowledge in their fields and motivated by their passion.
