This is the inspiration to the theme of “Upstream Well-Being Solutions.” My wife and I recently completed a long road-trip covering 26 states in America. Waterfalls were a common theme, as was rivers (we crossed the Mississippi twice, walked along the Rio Grande, and picnicked on the Colorado.
Here we are at Twin Falls (the “Niagara of the West”) in Idaho. These falls are on the Snake River.
It struck me that so much of our health system and the way we live our lives are focussed on radical interventions after we have a healthcare crisis, or a personal health crisis.
Let’s begin to think about ways to intervene above the falls before drifting over the falls.
