Episode 2471:

Marc Bilodeau of FitTrend.com challenges the superficial standards of health shaped by society and social media, advocating for a holistic view that encompasses physical, mental, and social well-being. He encourages small, sustainable changes over sweeping overhauls, emphasizing the importance of balance in diet, exercise, sleep, mental health, and social connections to truly define what it means to be healthy.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.fittrend.com/what-does-it-mean-to-be-healthy/

Quotes to ponder:

"Being healthy generally refers to your overall well-being, where your body, mind, and spirit are in a good condition involving physical, mental, and social aspects of life."

"Maintaining good health doesn’t mean you need to be perfect in any particular aspect. Rather, it is about consciously making choices to nourish your body, mind, and spirit in the way that suits you best."
