Shaping Up Program
Shaping Up is a wellness program that helps support clients on their overhaul health journey. It pairs a person with a severe mental illness, such as depression, with a personal health mentor who is also a certified personal fitness trainer.
Together, the mentor and participant tailor a unique personal health plan that the participant carries out with the mentor’s support. A participant’s plan may include walking, lifting weights, swimming, tai chi, dance, yoga, playing sports, or engaging in a variety of other physical activities. Each participant maintains an activity log, recording targeted risk factors and the activities completed. Health mentors guide, coach, and help to motivate participants as they set specific personal health and fitness goals, track progress, develop personal nutrition plans, and learn basic cooking, food shopping, and menu-planning skills.
Health mentors also help participants find smoking cessation programs, form relationships with medical professionals for regular and preventive care, and access other services that an individual may need.
Shaping Up participants meet at regularly scheduled celebrations to share their achievements, swap tips and success stories, and support each other in their efforts to make health improvements.
