In a recent interview on Inside South Florida, health advocate and motivational speaker David Trofort shared insights into his journey towards health and wellness and his book "Eat. Pray. Run," which serves as a guide for mastering mental, spiritual, and physical development.
Trofort explained the inspiration behind his book, revealing, "I tore my ACL in 2009... I realized that I could not allow that to hinder me from what I wanted to do with the rest of my life." After undergoing physical therapy, he gradually transitioned from a passive lifestyle to an active one, culminating in running his first marathon in 2018. His love for eating, spiritual connections, and exercise converged in the creation of "Eat. Pray. Run," offering readers a holistic approach to health and wellness.
Reflecting on his own struggles with mental and physical health, Trofort emphasized the importance of transitioning to an active lifestyle as one ages. "As I got more active, I started feeling better... motivating and inspiring people all around the world to eat less, to pray more, and to exercise often," he remarked.
Regarding nutrition, Trofort advocated for a plant-based diet, citing its transformative impact on his well-being. While he still incorporates fish into his diet as a pescatarian, he underscored the significance of adopting basic nutritional principles to improve overall health.
With February being American Heart Month, Trofort offered practical advice for those seeking to take control of their health. "Start moving more... more activity is how we increase the length of our lives," he advised, urging individuals to prioritize their health and commit to regular physical activity.
For those seeking further motivation and guidance, Trofort directed them to his website, DavidTrofort.com, and EatPrayRunBook.com, where they can access resources and engage with his efforts to promote health and wellness worldwide.
