June Healthy Challenge!

We're going back to goals again for our June Healthy Challenge. Summertime is a difficult time to stay on track with eating, exercising, and for some, even thinking positive.

Challenge Basis:

Each member will choose one goal per week, and accomplish that goal. The goal can be anything you choose--relating to healthy (mental, physical, or emotional). We suggest that you choose a goal of something that is different than your norm. Push yourself. Go for the gold!

Challenge Guidelines:

Dates: May 4, 2010 - May 30, 2010

Members will choose one goal per week and accomplish that goal each week.

Exceptions:  Each member is allowed one exception to be used as you wish - for any reason - you can not accomplish your goal for one week this month.

What constitutes a goal?

A goal can be anything that you opt for that relates to mental, physical, or emotional health. If you are working on a mental goal, you might choose to do a crossword puzzle each day (we have them on the Nest), or you might choose to post one affirmation each day in our Daily Affirmation thread, or whatever else you choose. If you are shooting for a physical goal, perhaps your goals are exercising for 20 minutes each day, or walking to get your mail from your doorstep instead of driving in and getting out of your car to retrieve it. Goals can be as large or as small as you wish.

Member Responsibility:  We trust our members. This will work on an honor system, however you will be required to check in to our Healthy Challenges Forum every other day and simply share how you are doing. Tell us if you stumbled, if you were able to turn it around in a particular instance, or if you need some motivation from other members. Remember, this is a healthy challenge that you are guiding, so don't beat yourself up if you do not make your goal one week. Simply choose a better suited one the next week.

Support:  Want to play but afraid you might not be able to keep up with the challenge? Does it sound silly? If you are worried about not being able to keep it up- that's what we're here for. We'll support you the entire way- every step! If you think the challenge sounds silly, then perhaps you are already meeting all of your goals in life. Good for you! Please come share your healthy habits with us! After all, you can never have enough friends, or bring enough good cheer to others:-)

We know you can do this!

We believe that, if successful, you'll be surprised at how good you will feel!

Good Luck!
