Whether your goal is to lose weight, exercise more, eat healthier or better manage your time – achieve it now!

The YMCA Healthy Lifestyle Program developed by Stanford University is a unique, ten-month program designed to help individuals achieve and maintain personal health and wellness goals.

Through bi-weekly meetings with a small group of 8-12 individuals and one coach, you will:
- Develop personal short and long term goals
- Focus on gradual lifestyle change and sustaining behavior patterns
- Draw support and accountability from others
- Learn specific strategies and gain the tools needed to successfully reach and maintain your goals

Meeting topics include: Building a Support Network, Identifying Rewards, Dealing with a Lapse, and Re-scripting Your Inner Voice

“You hear a lot of information about eating and exercising and it’s hard to decide which information is correct. I feel like I’ve been able to learn now what’s right for me and how to implement it. Also, the camaraderie with your group is great. The whole program has really helped me change my lifestyle.”
-Marla Lee Cesario, Healthy Lifestyle Program participant
