Engaging in Health and Well-Being

Chapter Chapter 12 in Well-Being, 2011, pp 139-148 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Whilst the case may be strong for the role of well-being in personal happiness and for increased productivity, the challenge faced by many organizations and health promoters is how to get people engaged in health and well-being. Sadly, many people only engage in their health once things start to go wrong; yet, there is extensive evidence2, 3, 4 that a healthy lifestyle can increase life expectancy and substantially reduce the risks of a raft of medical conditions.
