Quarterly Campaign #1 - Whole Health Challenge
Make Your Health a Habit!
Commit to your health by joining us for the Whole Health Challenge on January 29, 2024!
This challenge focuses on eating well, moving more, sleeping better and stressing less. Participants will earn daily points for completing healthy activities such as:
- Drinking more water
- Improving the length and quality of their sleep
- Accumulating at least 30 minutes of exercise daily
- Eating 5 servings of fruits and/or vegetables per day
- Being mindful daily
Participants will be given support throughout the challenge and a chance to win $100 applied to their JACard.
We are pleased to partner with the Departments of Health Professions & Kinesiology to provide an opportunity for participants to monitor their health during the challenge. We will measure health variables (i.e., blood pressure, blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, weight, and physical activity, among others) before and after the 8-week challenge to give participants an opportunity to see how these healthy habits can really make a difference.
In order to successfully perform the health screenings, faculty and staff who participate in this option during the Whole Health Challenge will be able to select one of three different start dates (1/29, 2/5, or 2/12).
Please note: this is simply an additional option that we are offering to faculty and staff and is not a requirement for participation in the Whole Health Challenge. Faculty and Staff may opt to complete the Whole Health Challenge and be eligible to win the prize regardless of their participation in the health screenings offered this year.
