New Year, New Beginning!


With the new year just beginning, it's a good time to set a goal to improve your wellness! As you set goals, make sure you consider whether or not your goal is SMART:

Specific- the goal is clear and unambiguous, not general.
Measurable- tracking your progress is possible.
Attainable- the goal is realistic, not extreme.
Relevent- The goal is worthwhile and important to you.
Time-Bound- The goal has a deadline for completion.

If you haven't written your new years resolutions, it's not too late! The year has just begun and even small improvements to your health can make a big difference a few years down the road. To keep you motivated, write down your goals, give yourself reminders if needed, and decide on a reward for yourself as you make progress.
