About this course

Maintaining good health is an important goal for everyone, especially those over sixty. Health can be defined as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of illness. Lifestyle medicine is an evidence-based approach to improving health by preventing and treating many chronic diseases, such as hypertension and diabetes, through non-pharmaceutical means. It emphasizes maintaining a healthy lifestyle, which includes following a nutritious diet, exercising regularly, getting sufficient sleep, avoiding harmful substances, and managing stress and social relationships. In this course, you will understand how to maintain your health and that health is not only physical but also mental and social. We will delve into the six pillars of a healthy lifestyle, covering nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management, social relationships, and eliminating harmful habits. You will learn about the behavior change model, which will help you turn knowledge into healthy daily practices, ensuring you can achieve lasting positive changes. We will highlight the importance of balanced nutrition and how a healthy eating plate can support your body and provide the energy needed for an active life. We will also discuss the benefits of regular exercise, different types of workouts, and how they impact your physical and mental health. Furthermore, we will explore the benefits of sleep, its stages, and effective tips for managing common sleep disorders. Additionally, we will focus on the risks of smoking and alcohol consumption and how to eliminate these harmful habits. We will discuss stress management and healthy relationships, where you will learn how to identify signs of stress and its triggers, and how to build a supportive social network that enhances your mental well-being.
