Just in time to help make
those New Year's Resolutions
a reality, the 5th annual
Washington State University
Wellbeing Fair will be held
on February 21, 2008, from
4:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m. at the
Student Recreation
Center.
University Recreation
recognizes wellbeing as more
than physical health alone.
There are eight dimensions of
wellbeing that include
social, environmental,
intellectual, emotional,
occupational, financial,
physical, and spiritual
wellbeing. Each of these
dimensions plays a unique and
important role in balancing
an active, healthy
lifestyle.
A wide range of organizations
and businesses from the
Pullman and Moscow
communities and several WSU
departments will be present
in celebration and
recognition of each of the
dimensions of wellbeing. Some
events to look forward to
include:
-
Physical: Want to improve
or maintain your physical
fitness? Find out your
body fat percentage with
our free body fat
testing, or have your
cholesterol tested by the
Cougar Health Awareness
Team.
-
Emotional: Relax and
relieve stress with free
chair massages.
-
Social: Meet and talk
with others who share
your interests in
wellbeing. Many student
groups and sport clubs
will be here!
-
Environmental: Need a
break from the daily
grind? Learn about
exciting eco-adventures
offered by the ORC and
Center for Civic
Engagement.
-
Spiritual: Learn about
mind/body awareness and
related classes at the
SRC.
-
Occupational: Learn about
how to become happier at
your current job by
visiting the Stress
Management Program booth
with Counseling Services.
-
Intellectual: Mark your
calendar for the fun,
instructional courses
offered at the SRC,
including bike
maintenance and swimming
workshops. Also, talk
with current students
from the College of
Pharmacy about health
topics such as diabetes
awareness, heart disease
and osteoporosis.
-
Financial: The whole fair
is FREE and will have
giveaways, raffles, and
much more!
Patrons of the SRC,
non-members, and Pullman and
Moscow community members are
invited to join the
celebration. Parking at the
SRC will also be free for the
duration of the Fair!
Get ready for an active,
healthy 2008 with the
Washington State University
Wellbeing Fair at the SRC on
Thursday, February 21. See
you there!
