Ideas and Support for your 2016 Goals

The new year is a great time to think about your goals - including how to live a healthier lifestyle. Here are some ideas on how to improve your overall health and well-being - from practicing mindfulness to keeping an exercise routine going. 

• Everyday mindfulness
  Although we may be driving or waiting in line, many of us are thinking about other things - work deadlines, a recent spat or an unpaid bill. Taking the time to stop, breathe, observe, and connect with our inner experience can protect us from modern day stresses. Learn more about the benefits of mindfulness and how you can bring it into your daily life.
• Fitness: Tips for staying motivated
  Many of us start the new year with good intentions of keeping a healthy habit - such as regular exercise - going for the long-term. But we may be tempted to quit our fitness program when we get bored or don't see results as fast as we want. If you're tempted to skip your exercise routine, these tips can help you stay motivated.
• Wellness coaching
  Do you have a healthy lifestyle goal you want to achieve in the new year? A wellness coach can provide the personalized support you need to make a plan and see it through.
