As employees of EDGE Building Services, we truly care about your health and overall wellness as a person. Over the next 12 month’s we’d like to work as a team in taking  small steps to improve of our health, mind, fitness motivation, family life, and work environments.  The goal of this program, is to provide you tools, resources, and motivation each month that will help promote healthy living. 

 

Studies show:

 

• Healthy behaviors lead to lower health risks, and lower health risks lead to less chronic disease.  With less chronic disease you will have fewer health care costs.  

• You can improve most health issues dramatically in just six weeks. Those who maintain healthy behaviors experience lower health risks for six weeks, six months, 12 months, and even out to 18 months after programs start.

• Unhealthy individual lifestyle choices may result in substantially higher levels of lost productive work time.

• When everyone within a group shares the same values of building a healthier lifestyle, it’s easier to stay motivated as individuals. 

• healthy living — both in terms of exercising, eating well, and staying on top of health screenings and physicians visits — can keep you living healthy and living longer! 

• Exercise stimulates the release of feel-good endorphins that not only make you feel better but also up your energy levels.

• Exercising for 30 minutes, three times a week can help an estimated 60% of patients overcome their depression without using anti-depressant medications.
