Wellness Goals Worksheet

Principles Of Wellness Goals

Group Activity: Read & respond as a group to the following:

Life Point Church has partnered with Dooable Health (www.dooable.com) to provide online resources as well as free consultations with a health coach.  This handout can be read in a small group setting, one on one or individually. It will provide a very clear way for you to get started in your physical wellness journey.

Starter Questions:
1. What is the worst diet plan you ever did and why was it so awful?
2. When was the time you were the most healthy? What types of things were you eating/doing that made it so healthy?
3. When you think of starting a healthy lifestyle, what are some of the obstacles or challenges that pop up in your mind and why?

3 Levels Of Entry:
Instructions: As a group, read through the following levels & answer the discussion questions that follow.
Below are three levels of entry to choose from to help you get started on your wellness journey. You can select one of the levels and get started or you can start at level 1 and progress through to level 3 as a way to introduce and build up new habits.

Level 1: 8 Weeks
  • Eat Well: Food/Drink
    • Food: I will eliminate the following food choice(s) from my diet:
    • Drink: I will eliminate the the following drink choice(s) from my diet:
    • Move Well: I will go on a daily walk ______ times a week for ______ minutes per day.
Level 2: 8-12 weeks

    • Move Well: I will go on a daily walk ______ times a week for ______ minutes per day.
    • I will do the following type of exercise ______ times a week for ______ minutes per day.

Level 3: Lifestyle Change
  • I will work with a Dooable Health Coach or with Arlene Peters to come up with a nutrition and exercise program.
  • This will involve a more extensive food & drink elimination process, and elaborate meal planning and preparation.
  • This will also involve a more extensive approach to planning and managing exercising on a regular basis.
Discussion Questions:
1. Which of the following levels appeals to you the most & why?
2. What resources or type of support would help you stay motivated to follow through on one of the levels?
3. If you schedule a call with a health coach, what types of questions would you ask him/her?

Goal Worksheet
Instructions: Get into groups of two or three people & read through the following and respond to the questions:

1. Finding Your WHY:
Finding the right motivation is the key to starting and keeping a healthy lifestyle. Think about the reasons WHY you want to lead a healthy lifestyle. “Losing weight” or “looking good on the beach” isn’t the right kind of incentive. Instead think about activities you once did, but can’t anymore. Think about the people you would like to be active with as a result of improved health. What type of activities would you do and who would you do them with?
Bottom line, if you were experiencing a new level of physical health and wellness, what would you be doing and why?

2. Finding A Wellness Partner
We all need cheerleaders in our life, especially when developing new habits. Is there anybody in this small group or at the church that could be your partner in this endeavor? (It would be great if each person could pair up with one, or no more than two other people to keep each other motivated!)

Write down several names of people you think could be your wellness partner:



3. Making A Plan (Decision Time!)
What is your “why” and how will you measure your progress toward that goal?


What excites you about making some lifestyle challenges for your health?


Which level have you decided to begin with and why?


What foods will you eliminate or add?


What drinks will you eliminate or add?


What physical activities will you begin?


What days & times will you engage in physical activities?


How will you track your progress? (Notebook, Fitbit, My Fitness Pal App?)


Will you schedule a call with the Dooable Health coach or with Arlene Peters to help you develop your plan?


If you have selected a wellness partner, please contact them & set up a plan for communication & mutual encouragement.
