Dr. Pete Offers Health Coaching to Congress
Today I have another message for Congress.
Recently I called upon the new Congress coming in 2011 to focus on health, at least three times as much as they focus on health care. And I’m still calling on you guys to do that.
But I realized that focusing on health is actually hard, and some of you may not be healthy yourself. Also I do think that, you can’t give away what you don’t have. So how can our Congress help lead America to health if you Congressmen and Senators are not healthy?
Now I imagine a lot of you are very, very healthy, but I imagine a lot of you are not, because — let’s face it — a lot of Americans aren’t.
You’ve got stressful jobs. You travel a lot. You eat out a lot. I know how it is. So I imagine a lot of you aren’t healthy and that you might want to be healthy and maybe having a hard time doing it.
And that’s why I want to offer my personal service as a health coach to any congressman or senator that would like health coaching from me.
I’m very serious about this. It’s confidential (completely confidential) and the idea is, if you could use some personal health coaching, send me an email, or get in touch with me through your staff.
I’ll send you a copy of my book. Take a look at it. If you like the philosophy we’ll get in touch by telephone or by email (we’ll figure it out), and I will coach you through a process to change your lifestyle, change your habits and become healthy.
Why not? What have you got to lose? Believe me, coaching works. I’m a big proponent of coaching. Not only am I promoting HEALTH as opposed to health care, I’m promoting coaching as a way to get healthy and I will be very happy to coach you.
Now I know there’s 435 of you. So if a couple of hundred of you call, I’m going to be in trouble. But I don’t think that’s going to happen, because quite frankly it takes a lot of courage to say, “I have a problem, and I need to change, and I could use some health to change.”
But for those of you who want to change and have the courage to give me a call, I’d seriously like to help and it will be confidential. So think it over. If you want to grab my book off the library shelf or get it from Amazon to read it first before you call me, that’s fine too.
I’m just trying to help, and I’m here for you, so shoot me an email if you’d like some personal health coaching. Thanks.
