Men’s Health Week is about highlighting the many health issues facing men and improving attitudes around men’s approach to wellness.
WHY MEN’S HEALTH?
“More males have accidents, more males take their own lives and more males suffer from lifestyle-related health conditions than females at the same age,” says Men’s Health Week Australia.
In a nutshell? Men’s Health Week is about:
- Recognising men’s health is a critical issue and that there are health issues which only affect men
- Promoting awareness of men’s approach to health
- Changing the way health care is provided to be more sensitive towards men’s needs
- Creating school and community programs which target boys and young men
- Connecting health and social policies to better pursue men’s health goals

ENGAGING MEN IN HEALTHY ACTIVITIES
Men’s Health Week is as much about promoting services that help with mental health and stress management as it is about the many medical issues facing men.
At Bodhi J, we recognise the wellness and beauty space often directs stress relief activities such as massages towards woman. But men need rest and recuperation too!
YOGA
The continued practice of yoga leads to a sense of peace and well-being, and makes the body strong and flexible. Yoga also improves the functioning of the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, and hormonal systems. It brings about emotional stability and clarity of mind.
At Bodhi J, we have a gorgeous studio at out Pier Street location with a schedule of various yoga styles for men to join.
