3 steps to change a habit with Omada
Your daily habits influence a lot—how you eat, sleep, your energy, and even how you feel. With Omada, your health coach works with you through one-on-one conversations to build a flexible plan to help you rethink your health habits and reach your goals, one step at a time.
Looking to change a habit this year? Try this approach:
- Make a list
Think about your daily routine and write down things you do daily that you might want to change, like skipping breakfast, or sitting for hours without a break, or drinking a soda every afternoon.
- Choose one habit to change
Pick one habit to change and make a simple plan. For example, swap out an afternoon sugary drink with water. To move more, go for a 15-minute walk at lunchtime.
- Commit to seven days
Focus on the new habit for the next seven days. If you miss a day, forgive yourself, and simply start over.
BONUS: Join Omada and get extra support, guidance, and accountability to meet your goals.
If you engage with your Omada coach or community in the first week of the program, you are approximately 94% more likely to achieve your health goals in the program.
