Do you want to improve your health? Then this
game will help. Take a look at the True Health Pyramid
we have designed. Notice at the bottom of the pyramid there are
certain reasons your health could be going down the drain. For true
health, it is vital you stop those things in your life. For each
item, write O.K. if this is not a problem with your
current situation. Write DANGER if it is a problem.
Next going up the pyramid is your desire and
willingness to constantly follow good health principles. How
committed are you to true health?
Going further up the pyramid you find other
daily actions important to your health and to the right the number
of servings of water and foods recommended. The top of the pyramid
is joy which is a result of true health and living your life in a
fulfilling way.
To make this into a game you can play by
yourself, print out six pyramids. Each day for 3 days record on a
pyramid your actual actions. For example, did you have 3 or more
servings of fruit that day? Write the date on each pyramid. Now,
take time to evaluate your health habits and decide how you can
improve. Then take 3 days to try your new, improved health
practices. Record your actual actions and date the pyramids. Did you
improve during the second three days? If so, did you experience any
health benefits? Continue improving your health habits and
monitoring how you feel.
If playing this game as a family or other
group, have each member follow the instructions above. The advantage
of playing with others is the opportunity to share goals, problems,
actions, and results while supporting each other’s efforts. At the
end, celebrate in a way meaningful to your family or group.
