CafeWell: A Healthy Social Network
Sunday, April 1, 2012
This post brought to you by CafeWell. All opinions are 100% mine.
CafeWell is like the Facebook/Twitter/Google+ for people focused on health and wellness. And like them, it's free. Registering is also just as easy. You hit the CafeWell site and just fill in your name, email, and birthday, and pick your screen name. Yep, that easy. Once your registration is complete, you have access to health experts, information, groups, challenges...Hmm, maybe it's more than just a social network.
After creating your profile page, it's time to explore your new support system for health and wellness! What kind of health issues are you interested in, weight loss, women's or men's health specific topics, nutrition? Or are you looking for some tips from coaches or experts? There are discussions going on in all of the CafeWell communities. If you don't see what you're looking for, start your own discussion. You can also start your own group and invite CafeWell friends. CafeWell does realize that sometimes health questions can be embarrassing, and they give you the ability to remain anonymous.
Information and support groups aren't motivation enough? Hold yourself accountable and enter your own personal goal. Then go join some of the great challenges to help reach that goal.
If you have an Altius health plan, you can join the Reach for the Peaks program, where members participate by wearing pedometers. They're eligible for prizes, special offers, and of course social acknowledgement. They also receive plenty of advice and support from the experts. Out of the mouths of members:
"So today I am taking a step forward to get off the couch and become healthy. I am overweight, underpaid and not so full of energy! I know if I think I can, I CAN! AND I WILL?
"I am absolutely thrilled with this motivating program."
Whether you join the Reach for the Peaks program, or you're in search of a little nutritional advice, CafeWell is a great on line community and resource to help you achieve and maintain your healthy lifestyle.
