As you might have noticed, we recognize that wellness encompasses more than just physical wellness. So, although we strive to support your physical wellness with fitness classes, programs and special events,by recommending virtual fitness and health resources,and by making a wide range of recreational activities available on campus,

we also strive to foster other dimensions that contribute to your well-being.

Here are links to some of our other wellness opportunities and resources:

When talking and thinking about wellness, it helps to have a common understanding of what we mean by wellness, as well as the terms we use to define it, such as aware, choice and success. We offer you the following definitions as starting points for establishing that common understanding.

The state of being in good health; an interactive process of becoming aware of and practicing healthy habits and choices to generate positive energy, balance and success in your life.

A state of knowing or realizing something, usually by being attentive and well-informed.Elaboration: Being aware involves continuously seeking more information about yourself, others, issues, ideas, cause-and-effect relationships and other aspects of life. It may also entail challenging your assumptions.

The act of selecting or making a decision among two or more possible options; the possibilities or options themselves.Elaboration: To make healthy choices involves considering a variety of options and selecting those that appear to be in your best interest and do no harm.

The achievement of your aim(s) or goal(s).Elaboration: Whether you have actually accomplished the particular goal you set out to accomplish is not the only measure of success. Some people equate putting forth maximum effort toward the achievement of a goal as success; others measure success by how close they have come to achieving a goal; still others measure success by how well they have fulfilled a constellation of important goals or maintained a commitment to their values. In most situations, your measure of success is up to you to determine.

The awareness and acceptance of your feelings and emotions.
