Health and Wellness
Tip:
The best habit to adopt is daily exercise. But don’t perform the same exercise every day. Have three or four different regimens, and rotate through them.
July is Social Wellness Month! For tips and information on how to improve your social wellness please visit the Words of Wellness website.
Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori shares her views on health and the Church today with fitness expert Peter K, and tells of her own efforts to maintain good health and wellness. Please click here to watch the video.
Ideas
- Setup a Wellness library with tapes and books on topics like how to communicate effectively. Topics could also include: How to Manage Stress and How to Manage Time effectively.
- Keep parish fridges and pantries stocked with low calorie drinks and food.
- Get active in the community!
- Promote annual medical and dental benefits. Did you know Church Medical Trust offers $0 Copays for annual physicals?
- Let members participating in Cigna Dental know that they are entitled to 3 free cleanings a year instead of 2.
