Discussing the way you live to enjoy the future you choose...

Are your lifestyle choices and the idea of changing them something you've been "wrestling" with? If you've already tried to make a change, chances are you've experienced some successes and failures and that "nothing ever really works" feeling. Of course you just might not know where to start and lack the confidence to believe that you could ever succeed if you did.

Alternatively you might be someone who is convinced that they really don't need to make a change and are simply here reading this because someone else has encouraged you to think about your lifestyle choices. If that's the case, you have absolutely nothing to lose by reading on for a few more minutes – and never know what you might find!

Whatever your situation, makesahealthychange.com is different and inspiring. Why? Because it makes a healthy change from being told what to do or being given loads of information or frightening statistics. makesahealthychange.com is about helping you find your own motivation to change, in a unique, easy and totally personal way.

Have a look around the site to discover more about what it can help with and how it might work for you or someone you know. Read more...

Makesahealthychange.com : Where does it fit? Last week I wrote about the future I would choose for Makesahealthychange.com? One of the things I wrote was that makesahealthychange.com “would be filling a gap that currently exists either because of a lack time or expertise.” I thought I might explain what I meant by this. As a health professional I know the value of motivating the patients I ...

Makesahealthychange.com : What does success look like? I have been thinking about this question recently. This is sometimes referred to as the miracle question: “if by some miracle you woke up tomorrow and all your goals, ambitions and dreams had come true.....what would have happened?”. We use it to help us think about what we want and then how to get there. It is a key element of solution focussed th...

The award winning SCIPit website - now makeahealthychange.com

Just in case there was any confusion, the website that you might have previously known as Scipit.co.uk is now relaunched as makesahealthychange.com. Here's just a few ways in which it's different and better...

Well for a start there's a new name and branding – we hope that this tells you at a glance that this is something different! In any case there are a number of films embedded in the site that bring to life the magic of what this site offers.
There are several new features including Resources and downloadable Journey Guides to help people along a journey of change.
There are real stories throughout the site – so that anyone using it can learn and be encouraged by others who might have had similar experiences along the way.
Referral Codes are another key new feature of the site, enabling both organisations and individuals to access the site for limited periods or as part of special initiatives. Contact us if you would like to know more about that.

But some things are just the same...

Despite these changes the site works almost exactly as previously. Healthcare commissioners and referring organisations can still have their own page through which to link makesahealthychange.com to their own 'Care Pathways' or infrastructure.

And credit where it's due...

The redesign and relaunch of this site has been an exciting collaboration between First Contact Clinical, web specialists The Website Lab and digital film and branding agency 39 Degrees.
