Committed to Health
Spotlight on: John Cantrell-Blaine
When it came time to lose weight and get healthier, John Cantrell-Blaine was personally motivated by helping his co-workers achieve their health-related goals.
John, an Assistant Deli Manager at Safeway, formed a support system in his store to encourage his co-workers to make both physical and mental healthy choices.
“I try to take a whole body approach to health,” said John. “Healthy decisions can be as simple as parking your car in the last spot in a parking lot to learning how to manage your stress better.”
John was recruited to join the Wellness Volunteer network last summer and used his creativity to put on a program in his store to allow each employee to participate in their health.
“On a bulletin board, I placed a paper tree to represent the store and its employees,” explained John. “Employees would take paper leaves and fill out a small promise like eating breakfast everyday or spending an hour every evening doing a hobby.” The program allowed employees to set health-related goals for themselves and motivate each other to keep those promises. Caring for the tree meant taking time to care for their health.’
After attending the Own Your Health small group discussion in Kent, John has taken a particular interest in helping participants in his store become better health care consumers. “I see a lot of misinformation about health and health care and for some reason talking about your health can be taboo,” said John. “Being open, especially with your doctor, will help you identify issues and correct them”.
John’s favorites:
- LiveWell wellness program: Lifestyle Coaching
- Favorite healthy food: Sautéed scallops in white wine with brown rice and salad
- Favorite outdoor activity: Hiking
Thank you for your creativity John! Keep up the great work.
