The Day "All Health Breaks Loose"

Our great friend and role model, Sid Lerner, recently passed away. In life, Sid was vivacious and hilarious. One of the original advertising “Mad Men,” he was also a brilliant creative. He understood the ins and outs of business and he never hesitated to call it for what it was. Sid leaves behind a legacy we’ll always turn to for inspiration and, since he was the CEO of The Monday Campaigns, we can’t help but think of him at the start of each week. It was Sid who coined their tagline “The Day All Health Breaks Loose.” And that it is!

So if you’re looking to take control of your health, that’ll be your new favorite phrase, and Monday your new favorite day. Monday?! We know, it seems a little daunting. But don’t worry if the only thing you can see “breaking loose” on a Monday is the to-do list you’ve skirted all weekend… You’re not alone.

Instead of feeling overwhelmed, you can feel optimistic about checking things off your list. Because according to science (Check out The Research Behind Monday from The Monday Campaigns), the first day of a FRESH new week is when you’re most likely to set healthy intentions, call the doctor, start an exercise program, quit smoking and/or research your health online.

All this positive energy is the reason we encourage our students at FRESH Med U to reset, reFRESH and refocus on Mondays – turning the “Monday Blues” into the “Monday Do’s”. With our Rx to health – Food, Relaxation, Exercise, Sleep, Happiness - you have five letters for five weekdays. The perfect prescription. (And let’s be honest, we can let Happiness stretch through Saturday and Sunday).

Tag @freshmednyc on Instagram and let Dr. Graham know what you’re doing to get with the Pro-Graham this week! And be bold with your goals… After all, it’s not every day “all health breaks loose.”
