Wellness Challenge

For any of you "New Year's Resolution" folks, the therapists at both our Peoria and Washington offices can now sympathize with your pains. That's right, we just finished up a 10-week Wellness Challenge (beginning at the start of 2013), coordinating with teams all from within the Rock Valley system. This was a competition based on various wellness categories (not just focused on weight loss), and we know that sometimes all it takes is that competitive edge to get us going!

Although we didn't place too high in the competition, I think it's safe to say that we all got some friendly reminders about things we can do to improve our overall health and well-being. Even for us, who consider ourselves to be fairly health-conscious, we can admit that there are areas where we were definitely slacking.

I thought it might be nice to share with our readers the type of categories and activities that we tracked during this time period. Although you don't have to score yourself with a point system, feel free to use these ideas to jumpstart your own personal Wellness Challenge.
