Making a resolution and sticking to it takes planning, so it’s a good idea to think about what your resolution might be before January comes around, so that you can be prepared and motivated to achieve your goals.
It doesn’t always have to be something major, even the smallest changes to your lifestyle can have a big effect!
You could decide to focus on your eating habits and reduce the amount of salt, sugar and processed foods you eat, or you could choose to become more active by walking to the shops instead of taking the car or parking further away and walking some, or all of the way, to work or the school gates.
If you would like to make a resolution to improve your health and wellbeing, but are not sure where to start, come and have a chat with the Living Well team at two events in January. Our team can help you to make (and stick to!) your New Year’s resolutions.
Keep an eye out for our pink and blue Living Well gazebo on Tuesday 7 January at the Airedale Shopping Centre in Keighley and Thursday 9 January at the Broadway Shopping Centre, Bradford. Come and say hello to our friendly team, we will be there from 10am – 2pm.
The Living Well team will be at the events offering free blood pressure checks and carbon monoxide checks for smokers. They can also talk to you about a wide range of health topics including healthy eating, physical activity, alcohol, mental wellbeing, quitting smoking, long term conditions, family health and lots more!
