Family Photo Contest

We are kicking off our Healthy Family Photo Contest this month. You can earn a LiveWell Credit by submitting a photo of you and your family members demonstrating a healthy activity. If you are already participating in the Team Up Challenge, grab your loved ones and bring them along to walk, jog, play tennis, snow shoe (who still has snow in their region?) or participate in any other healthy activity that you enjoy doing together.

Submit your photo to [email protected] and your photo may win you a prize and be featured in future LiveWell communications.

Before you become a statistic for non-emergency procedures performed as alternatives to more conservative treatment, talk to a health coach. As you will see from this link, this is NOT a new problem: http://nyti.ms/1yC5xAJ

None of us can change the past or what we have done to our bodies before right now. What we can control is what we do to them from this point forward. Click to read our newest WellThen! post - and let's make our next decision a healthy one: http://bit.ly/1iyuvV3

We had quite the rough winter in the northeast. If the news I saw from much of the rest of the continent was accurate, we were not alone. Unless you are a skier, snowboarder or sledder, you were likely driven indoors – except for when you were shoveling or cleaning off cars...
