Overview

A healthy lifestyle forms the basis for the treatment of most civilization diseases. However, changing our lifestyle, i.e. daily habits, is difficult for most of us. If we want to motivate patients to change their lifestyle, then the relationship is trust. If we want to gain the patient’s trust, the critical assumption is that we trust him. To honestly believe we need to listen to the patient’s world, be interested in seeing the problem – the situation on the part of the patient. The text briefly outlines strategies on how to motivate a patient to change their lifestyle.

Keywords:

lifestyle – Motivation – habit – civilization diseases
