Health Rewritten: A New Narrative for Living Well
Health Rewritten is a new approach designed to help individuals question the old, inherited messages about health and wellness—and replace them with a purpose that fits their lives. Much like the other Rewritten programs, this one encourages you to identify unhelpful or outdated “scripts” about diet, exercise, and self-care, then rewrite them to align with your unique goals and values. The emphasis is on authenticity over cookie-cutter routines, ensuring that every participant’s journey toward better health feels realistic, empowering, and sustainable.
Each session is tailored to the goals of the organization.
Audience
- Those Tired of One-Size-Fits-All Diets or Exercise Plans: Anyone who’s tried program after program only to wind up frustrated when “universal” approaches fail to address personal realities.
- Busy Professionals: Those struggling to find a balance between career demands and the desire for a healthier lifestyle.
- People Facing Chronic Conditions or Lifestyle Diseases: Individuals who want more than a standard clinical approach—seeking deeper insight into the social, emotional, and mental stories that shape their health behaviors.
- Anyone Looking to Embrace Authentic Wellness: Individuals eager to replace guilt, shame, or impossible beauty standards with a more meaningful, long-term vision of good health.
Key Elements
Identifying Outdated Health Narratives: Many of us carry stories about what “healthy” looks like—perhaps shaped by family, media, or cultural norms. Participants learn to spot these unspoken beliefs and see how those stories might be sabotaging their well-being.
Rewriting the Script: Borrowing from narrative coaching principles, Health Rewritten invites participants to frame health goals around personal values and genuine desires rather than external standards.
Practical Strategies and Tools: Rather than a one-size diet or exercise plan, attendees learn adaptable methods—like setting non-negotiable health routines that align with their work-life realities, leveraging small daily shifts, and using mental reframing to avoid self-sabotage.
Community and Accountability: Health Rewritten recognizes the power of shared experiences. Group sessions, peer check-ins, or online communities reinforce newly written health narratives and provide motivation to continue. Participants discover that they’re not alone in challenging old messaging and that encouragement from others is a powerful accelerator.
Long-Term Integration: True wellness isn’t a quick fix; it’s an evolving story. By the end of the program, participants have an individualized action plan that nurtures them beyond their initial enthusiasm. This plan focuses on realistic milestones, meaningful self-care, and ongoing self-reflection.
