WHY PAVING
Our lives are busy. We are distracted more than ever before. Not all of us know how best to tackle what comes at us. A foundation is essential.
Being active is the first step
Aerobic exercise, strength training, and stretching are covered, as well as strategies to incorporate more movement into daily living.
ATTITUDE
The way you think determines the way you act
Participants are introduced to the “growth mindset” concept and encouraged to have an attitude of openness throughout the sessions.
Try different things?
Whether trying new vegetables, a different form of physical activity, or a new stress resiliency practice, “Variety” is emphasized throughout the lifestyle pillars.
Exploration is in our DNA
Participants enjoy investigating which lifestyle behaviors feel best for their body and are empowered to lead healthier lives.
NUTRITION
Healthy eating is key
Nutrition content encourages increasing nutrient density, preferring whole foods over processed foods, and helps participants gain skills through cooking classes.
Structure is paramont
Through learning to set SMART goals, successful behavior change becomes more likely.
Conquer your challenges
Participants are introduced to a variety of stress resiliency tools including deep breathing, the relaxation response, and mindfulness-based stress reduction.
TIME OUTS
Me time is key time
Participants learn the benefits of taking breaks from unhealthy influences, prolonged sitting, difficult conversations, and negative self-talk. A “Time Out” allows for increased clarity and overall wellbeing.
Energy powers us
Increasing the use of natural sources of energy such as healthful foods, exercise, and connecting with friends allows participants to increase vitality through healthy behaviors.
Purpose is paramount
Identifying priorities, examining life’s meaning, and seeing the bigger picture in life, allows participants to align their behaviors with their purpose.
SLEEP
Rest is never optional
Through evaluation of the quantity and quality of their sleep and what enhances or detracts from sleep, participants are prepared to make their nights more restful.
Social support is important
Throughout the course, high-quality connections with family, friends, and community are emphasized and meaningful connections with others in the cohort are experienced.
