Prioritizing Men’s Health—Mind, Body, and Legacy:

June 2025: Prioritizing Men’s Health—Mind, Body, and Legacy
By Scherrie Scott

June is Men’s Health Month—a time dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of preventive care, physical fitness, mental well-being, and emotional balance in men’s lives. It’s a meaningful opportunity to pause, reflect, and take intentional steps toward better health, for ourselves and for the ones who count on us.

Men often carry silent burdens—responsibilities, expectations, and pressure to “hold it all together.” But strength isn’t just physical; it’s spiritual, emotional, and mental. Real strength is shown when men choose to care for themselves as much as they care for others. Scripture reminds us in 3 John 1:2, “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.” True prosperity includes health in every area of life.

This month, I encourage all men to:

• Schedule a checkup. Prevention is power.

• Move your body daily. Even 30 minutes of walking can change your mood and energy.

• Open up. Talk to someone—whether a counselor, mentor, or trusted friend.

• Rest well. Your body heals and restores in rest, not just in action.

• Strengthen your spiritual walk. A sound mind and a peaceful spirit are anchors in life’s storms.

As we honor the men in our lives—fathers, brothers, husbands, sons, and friends—let's celebrate them not just for what they do, but for who they are. Encourage the men around you to take time for their health this month. And if you're a man reading this, know this: your health is your wealth. Taking care of you is not selfish—it’s wise, responsible, and God-honoring.

So here’s to strong hearts, clear minds, and renewed strength. Let June be a turning point toward wellness that lasts far beyond this month.

Blessings,

Scherrie
