Have you thought about your resolutions for the new year? This year, put healthy living at the top of your list. You don’t have to make drastic changes. You can incorporate healthy habits into your daily routine to improve your health and reduce your chances for developing type 2 diabetes. Wondering where to begin? Here’s what you can do.

Setting a New Year’s resolution is quite popular for many people. Some of the most common New Year’s resolutions include losing weight, being more physically active, and quitting smoking. The good thing about making a resolution is that you are more likely to succeed. One study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology found that those who set New Year's resolutions are 10 times more likely to change their behavior than those who don’t. Having a support system or mentor to encourage you can help you be even more successful in sticking with your resolutions.

Whitney Wellness Workshops are all about keeping our community over 55 feeling fantastic! Our workshops are backed by science and lead by certified life coaches. And they're free thanks to the Live well at Home grant and the Older Americans Act.

Looking for the perfect gift this holiday season? Why not give yourself and your loved ones the gift of good health! By making changes – like eating better and being more physically active – you can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes and have many more years to make memories with your family.
