Introduction: Your Passport to Healthy Living The Passport, developed by experts across Canada is based on current clinical evidence. The Passport is a self-management tool, acknowledges the influence of beliefs and values and stages of change, and provides tips for action to improve overall health. It provides information on the benefits of physical activity, healthy eating, and maintaining mental health. It also provides information on diabetes and other chronic diseases that can be prevented or better managed with a healthy lifestyle. Session 1: Online Passport with Older Adults 13

Exercise This exercise, which targets and stretches the chest muscles, is also good for your posture, and can be done at home. You can do this stretch while standing or sitting in a sturdy, armless chair. 1. Keep your feet flat on the floor, shoulder-width apart. 2. Hold arms to your sides at shoulder height, with palms facing forward. 3. Slowly move your arms back, while squeezing your shoulder blades together. Stop when you feel a stretch or slight discomfort. 4. Hold the position for 10-30 seconds. This may be a shorter time in the beginning and people can build up to this. 5. Repeat at least 3-5 times. For the class you may just want to repeat it once or twice. Session 1: Online Passport with Older Adults 18

Daily Dose Session 1: Online Passport with Older Adults 19

Introduction to Goal Setting The pros and the cons to making change: Pros: The pros are the things that are making you want to change, i.e., positive support, feeling better, having more energy and being social. Cons: The cons are things that will stop you from making a change, i.e., barriers, such as weather, lack of support, fear. The only way that you are going to make the change is if the pro is greater than the con. Example: Someone wants to start walking for 10 minutes every day to increase their physical activity. What are the pros? What are the cons? How do you overcome the cons? Session 1: Online Passport with Older Adults 20
