Do you know about the Monday Movement?
It's Monday here at APHA and I was excited to pick up some Meatless Monday schwag, since I've been observing Meatless Mondays since I started the MPH program two years ago. But today I learned that it's now going beyond Meatless Mondays to Healthy Monday.
The idea is that Monday is a great day to reset; the weekend or a hectic week is in the past and Monday is a time to engage or re-engage in a health-supporting activity. People tend to do this naturally, but we as health educators can leverage this tendency to facilitate moving people from thinking about a change (or contemplation, thank you Dr. Prochaska) to action, or even from precontemplation to contemplation to action by educating others about the Monday Movement.
