2. HEALTHY LIVING 101: South Acton Congregational Church is sponsoring a group program, Healthy Living 101 that is geared toward slow and steady shifts in some of our self destructive habits and changing them to productive self-care habits. This is a 6-month program designed to support those who want to find more clarity, energy and enthusiasm for living a radiantly healthy life.  The program is based on the idea that eating healthy – although vitally important -is just the beginning.  Full and radiant health is about finding power in your all areas of your life – your career, relationships, spirituality, exercise routine AND diet. Program starts at 7:30 p.m. and costs $20.
