Find Your Fit with Well-Being: Leaning Into Your Strengths to Build Healthy Habits
Wednesday, February 21, 2024 | 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Online event
Join HAP and the American Institute of Preventive Medicine for a live webinar presented by MJ Shaar. Most of us realize that our sleep, food, mood, and exercise habits are related. Yet, we rarely think about how to leverage these interactions, and use them to our advantage.
Thanks to the biochemical activity that they generate in the body, improving our habits in any one of these four categories will make change in other areas easier. So why stay stuck with poor food habits if that's what's most difficult for you to change when progress in sleep, mood or exercise can have a beneficial impact on your food intake? This session introduces a strength-based approach to habit improvement that will help you identify where you feel most empowered, build on initial victories, and harmoniously upgrade your sleep, food, mood and exercise habits. With this lifestyle management approach, your health goals will be within reach!
