  Facilitate the My health for life - a healthy lifestyle program for small groups of 6-15 people. This program is FREE for participants. It is a State Government-funded initiative designed to help Queenslanders stay well and decrease their risk of developing conditions such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and cancer. Group programs are available across Queensland and delivered to the community or workplace. Our face-to-face groups are held in Bowen Hill, and Workplace groups are within Brisbane. Online groups are delivered throughout Queensland. Participants get to explore topics such as nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress, understanding their personal risk of developing health conditions and how to make healthier choices a part of every day. Whether the goal is to get more active, eat better, stress less, or lose weight, the focus is on building a step-by-step plan to help people achieve their goals over time.
