- Abstract
Recently translated and adapted to the French-Canadian context, the program Remodeler sa vie (Lifestyle Redesign) aims to develop meaningful and healthy lifestyle. The influence of this newly adapted program on older French-Canadians was, however, unknown. The aim of this study was to describe the influence of the Remodeler sa vie on older French-Canadians' life balance, engagement in meaningful activities, self-compassion and gratitude. A mixed-method design (preexperimental and qualitative clinical) was used in a pilot study with 16 participants distributed in two groups (with and without disabilities). Pre- and post-intervention questionnaires as well as semi-structured interviews were completed. An increase of life-balance in all participants (p =.03) and of engagement in meaningful activities in older adults without disability (p =.02) was observed. The participants also reported improvements for all outcomes. Remodeler sa vie is a culturally promising program to promote health among older French-Canadians.
