As the new year begins, we often strive to make goals for ourselves. Here are some tips to think about when setting nutrition goals:
- Start with 1-3 goals. Setting too many can make it difficult to stay focused.
- Track your progress, this can help keep you motivated.
- Celebrate your success along the way. Choose a reward that is important to you.
- Try setting “addition goals”. Focus on what you can add to improve your nutrition rather than focusing on what to remove.
- Think progress, not perfection. Some days are going to be better than others and that’s ok!

Coworkers are often the first to notice if a team member is struggling with their mental health. Taking a few minutes to have a conversation can really help them. Start by asking if they’re okay. Listen without any judgments. Discuss some possible next steps. Offer information on counseling services, if needed. You don’t have to take on the role of a therapist. But, you can be there to listen and show you care. Your small effort can make a giant impact!

Visit www.TBDHU.com/giantimpact to learn more. Let’s make work a safe place to talk about mental health. Small effort, giant impact!
