Once upon a time enjoying good health was a given. Unfortunately this is no longer true.
We live fast paced lives full of stress, poor food choices, not enough physical activity, and most of us don’t get enough sleep.
Over the next nine posts I will share with you simple steps from Dr. Bill Sears you can take to ensure you enjoy health into your prime.
Dr. Sears nine steps for prime time health are:
- Make Health Your Hobby
- Keep Your Arteries Clean
- Move!
- Graze on Good Food
- Reduce Your Waist
- Eat More Seafood, Less Meat
- Eat More Fruits and Vegetables
- Take Juice Plus
- Practice the Pills vs Skills Model
My question for you is what are your hobbies?
Perhaps you enjoy gardening, sewing, playing a sport, fishing, or photography.
Have you ever considered maintaining your health to be a hobby?
We can no longer presume we will enjoy good health. To experience good health you must make your health a priority.

Why I think making health your hobby is important
After enduring chronic pain for over 25 years I learned the chronic pain in my hands and back was due to a food intolerance. Experiencing first hand how whole foods helped my body heal opened my eyes to real health care (versus traditional ‘dis-ease’ management).
I am passionate about sharing this information. This lead me to become an AADP certified health coach. I am continually reading and learning more about natural treatments to restore health to the body. I know our body has the ability to heal itself if we address the nutritional deficiencies and conditions that led to ‘dis-ease’.
I live on an 8.6-acre farm with my husband in Montrose, Colorado. We moved to this small farm to be able to produce as much of our food as possible. We raise goats (for milk), sheep (for meat), and ducks (for eggs). The garden is still under developement. Living a lifestyle that promotes health has become not just a hobby for me, but a way of life.
Healthy prime timers learn to take care of their body.
Healthy prime timers create a maintenance manual and follow it.
To assist you with developing your very own maintenance manual I will be sharing resources, to accompany the videos, I have found helpful to take better care of my body.

Don’t get complacent. Once losing weight becomes your hobby that doesn’t mean it won’t be challenging at times. I’m sure there are times when a scrap-booker or model builder gets frustrated when the pages don’t turn out right or they use too much glue. The main idea is that you learn from your mistakes, welcome the challenge, and enjoy learning about and fitting your hobby into your life!
