From Conversation to Action: Moving Medicine with Hamish Reid

Published on: 5th December, 2023

Join us in a conversation with Dr Hamish Reid, a sports and exercise medicine consultant, on motivational interviewing. Having helped create the Moving Medicine resource and the Active Conversations motivational interview course, Hamish is a leading light in motivational interviewing. Hamish explores how we can bring up physical activity in conversation, as well as quick, practical and easy ways to inspire change in people. Learn about the amazing tools you can utilise in primary care such as the ‘confidence question’ and ‘developing discrepancy’. I’ve no doubt it’ll influence your conversations, and maybe inspire you too!
