This Saturday, November 13, 2021, is World Kindness Day, a day that presents us with the opportunity to reflect upon kindness.

Kindness is not only a simple act that can spread happiness and positivity, but it can help improve interpersonal relationships, social connections, and boost your overall wellbeing, which can help you to achieve success on plan.

Here are just a few ways you can celebrate World Kindness Day:

• Reach out to the OPTAVIA Community. A quick message or text to someone in the OPTAVIA Community goes a long way. Let them know how much you appreciate them and how grateful you are to have met through OPTAVIA.
• Phone a relative. Call and loved one or friend you haven't spoken to in a while and catch up. Texting is great, but nothing compares to a heart-to-heart phone conversation!
• Help a stranger. Hold the door for someone, share your lunch, or purchase coffee for someone behind you. Sometimes, the smallest actions have the most significant impact!

Remember, implementing just one small act of kindness can leave a positive impact on others. Please reach out to me, your independent OPTAVIA, Coach to learn more about kindness.

Running through Life

Tim struggled with his weight for 25 years. He felt that nothing worked despite his many efforts to lose weight with different weight loss programs. He began to feel tired - he had a severe lack of energy all the time.

Tim was scrolling through Facebook one day and noticed a picture of an old friend showing his weight loss. Tim immediately reached out to his friend to learn more about how he had lost the weight.

“After telling me about OPTAVIA, I decided I needed to try this. Within a short amount of time, I was feeling better and losing weight in the process*."

Not to mention, as Tim turned 70, he was feeling more energetic than ever!

"I have a couple of small businesses and a homeless street ministry, and this new lease on life has changed my outlook, and I now look forward to other things my life has in store for me!"

Tim was so moved by his experience with the OPTAVIA program that he decided to become an independent OPTAVIA Coach himself so he could pay it forward and share his experience with others!

Tim is forever thankful to his independent OPTAVIA Coach for introducing him to this life-changing program. Today, he spends most of his time teaching how healthy habits can help achieve health and wellness goals.
