We are a little more than half through
September. This month is known for many different awareness campaigns:
Childhood Cancer Awareness; Healthy Aging; Leukemia and Lymphoma
Awareness; National Childhood Obesity Awareness; etc. This list goes on
and on. Now I'm not trying to dog any of these campaigns. Please don't
get me wrong. They are all important and valid. The problem is we
just have so much to be aware of and not enough months in a year for
each campaign to get their own.
For
those out there who don't feel they can relate to a particular campaign
and don't just want to choose one randomly, you can think of September
as you did when you were younger--Back to School Time. Around Labor Day
all schools have started back and what are you thinking about at this
time? GRADES! People focus so hard on earning good grades in math and
science and maybe even health class, but what about your personal
health?
That's the HEALTH GRADE we should remember to focus on as well. Maybe
if our physical health was graded just as our math and science courses
are graded, do you think more people would try to earn an "A"? I think
we would. Some people need to see something tangible and a course grade
would do it. They also need the accountability that is required to
earn a good grade. People need good teachers and mentors as well as
"classmates" or partners. Quizes and tests help. And "group" or family
projects would be a great way to make sure everyone has strong Health
Grades.
We at the Chicago Herb Shop are willing to help you earn Great Health
Grades this year. In fact we have a line up of lessons for you to
follow to make the cut. Stay tuned for posted info of our first lesson!
