Jan 30, 2026 January 2025 One Source EAP Newsletter: Wellness Planning for 2026

Woman planning with Post-It Notes

It’s that time of year again - making New Year’s resolutions that may not last to the end of the month, forget about the end of the year.

As with any successful venture, the key is planning! As Benjamin Franklin famously said, “If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.” One area where many of us fail to plan is our mental health and wellness, which is more important than ever.

Even one goal to improve self-care and mental wellness can make a positive impact. Whether it is improving your sleep, eating better, or moving more, good self-care helps reduce stress and improve resiliency when things go awry.

One Source EAP can help you improve your mental health and wellness planning with our January seminar, “Creating A Wellness Plan,” and can help you work toward your SMART goals:
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Realistic
Time-bound

Learn more about SMART goals here.

You and your benefit-eligible family members can use your One Source EAP benefit to help with 2026 wellness planning by calling (800) 300-0628. All calls are answered 24/7/365 and both the call and the services are strictly confidential.

Why Planning Matters

· Gives You a Sense of Control:  Feeling in control helps you process stress and take positive action.

· Identifies Triggers: Become more aware of the warning signs of stress or burnout so you can respond early.

· Simplifies Decision Making: Making healthy choices can be hard under stress. A pre-written plan helps you respond rather than react.

· Helps You Communicate What You Need: Allow others to support you such as friends, family, or colleagues to provide the help you need to keep you on track.
