The healthy wealthy absurdity

Did you see that the fancy gym Equinox is now offering a $40,000/year health plan? It’s absurd. So I guess the wealthy just get to be healthier because they have more money?

There’s so much news out there about all these fancy things that could make us healthier — expensive creams and bath bombs and candles that calm our nervous systems and cryotherapy and saunas and…and…and…. It can feel overwhelming and completely out of reach to take care of ourselves effectively.

So I keep coming back to the basics. There may be some “easy fixes“ out there that are just out of reach for me or for you.

But that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t do anything. Instead of feeling discouraged and overwhelmed by all the options and feeling like you have to do it all or do nothing, consider what is within your control?

What you eat, how you move your body, how you set yourself up for quality sleep, the relationships you cultivate… These are all things that can transform your lifestyle and health that don’t require thousands of dollars and all the fancy products that you see advertised in the media.

It might feel kinda boring compared to what you see on social media. It’s definitely not fancy. But it does the job.

​So if you can’t go to the spa every day, what can you do to support a healthy lifestyle? Comment below and let me know!
