Activating people to improve their well-being
Blue Zones Project® engages people in activities that change mindsets and habits in lasting ways, ultimately transforming the places they live, work, learn, and play.
We are Blue Zones Project – Hawai‘i
We are Blue Zones Project. Our vision is a happy and healthy Hawai‘i where people are empowered to care for each other and their community. Ultimately, we want you to live longer, better. Brought to Hawai‘i by HMSA, Blue Zones Project is a community-led, well-being improvement initiative designed to make healthy choices easier through permanent changes to lifestyle, environment, policy, and social networks.
Upcoming events
One of the best ways to get engaged—and stay engaged—is to attend a Blue Zones Project event. Not only are events a great opportunity to add knowledge and practices to your own well-being journey, they’re also a way to connect with other community members as you inspire each other towards a higher level of health and happiness.
Purpose Workshop
Wake up each day with purpose and live 7 years longer, happier! Register to attend a free interactive purpose workshop to discover or re-discover your gifts, passions, and values.

Moai
A Moai® is a circle of friends who support and encourage each other through life. The small size of the groups allows the members to focus on building strong friendships—and those social connections are vital to well-being! Join a Walking Moai, Purpose Moai, or Potluck Moai in your community.
Walking School Bus
Children who walk to school are more alert and ready to learn, strengthen their social networks, and develop fitness habits that last a lifetime. A Walking School Bus allows a group of children to walk to school under the supervision of two or more adults.
Volunteer
Volunteering with Blue Zones Project is a rewarding way to make a difference in your community while reaping the benefits of being of service to others. Wake up feeling inspired and full of purpose, and use your gifts and passions to help improve well-being where you live, work, and play!
