Webinars

Sometimes, making changes isn’t easy, but when you find your own motivation and take change one step at a time, it’s more manageable. Our lifestyle programs can help you make the positive changes you want to – and stick with them!

The Healthy Habits Coaching Program has three areas of focus:

• iCanChange uses a personalized, flexible, and supportive approach to help you reach your weight and health goals.

• iCanThrive can help you learn how to fuel your body with healthy foods, begin a program of enjoyable physical movement, and relax more.

• iCanRelax can help you become aware of stress and how it affects you, and gain skills for handling your reactions to stressful demands and changes.

The programs feature an optional telephonic or online personal health coach, a personal homepage with a tracker, interactive tools, and much more!

Join us as we answer your questions and discuss how the iCan Programs will help you understand your behaviors and help you make changes.

As we approach the holiday season, many of us envision festive dinners where the food is plentiful, delicious, and non-bloating; family get-together’s lacking in boredom or arguments; and mountains of much appreciated gifts with no corresponding credit card bills. The trouble is, when the holidays arrive, we try too hard to make reality fit this picture. We agonize over gift lists and rush from store to store in search of the perfect items. We eat too much and drink too much, but find ourselves still hungry for that indescribable “holiday spirit.”

And when the holidays don’t meet our expectations, we find ourselves feeling anxious,depressed, and even angry. But there are things you can do to keep from overindulging and feeling guilty or angry during the holidays.

Join us as we discuss tips and strategies for maintaining a sense of balance during the holiday season, and the resources available to you through the Military OneSource iCan Coaching Programs.

Having a child with special health and/or educational needs can be especially challenging for military families. Services for special needs children vary from state to state and knowing where to go for high quality, current information is critical.

Isabel Hodge from the Military Family and Community Policy at the Office of the Secretary of Defense will provide an overview of useful Department of Defense and other government and non-government resources that families with special needs should be aware of.

Topics Include:

• Locating local, state and community resources.
• Government websites
• Evaluating online resources
• Connecting with other families
