Magnify Your Life

Magnify Your Life is a project involving The University of Utah and the town of Magna in a joint effort to promote healthy lifestyles.

The core of the Magnify Your Life program focuses on 12 Messages that promote human resilience, which is the ability to thrive in difficult times. The messages will be available through a number of local sources (schools, recreation center, media, senior center, etc).

The program also partners with other organizations within the Magna Healthy Community to “bombard” the community with the resilient messages in order to encourage healthy experiences.
