| What is Wellness?
Wellness is an active, personal approach to making lifestyle
choices in the following areas: cultural, emotional, environmental,
intellectual, occupational, physical, social and spiritual.
Each individual assumes personal responsibility for their
quality of life. The Wellness Office emphasizes the physical
dimension of wellness.
Mesa State Wellness Benefits Program
In January 1997, the Wellness Benefits Program was established
with major support of President Michael Gallagher. The purpose
of the program is five fold:
- Increase awareness for each student/faculty/staff member's
health via a fitness assessment;
- Provide student/faculty/staff members activity programs
to improve/maintain their current levels of fitness;
- Provide invaluable hands-on experience for Kinesiology
majors who conduct the fitness assessments, data analysis,
and fitness program design; and
- Expose student/faculty/staff members to the healthy on-campus
environment of the Student Recreation Center.
- Recognize and reward student/faculty/staff members who
exercise regularly and meet certain criteria (The Fitness
Club).
The first step in the Wellness Benefits Program is to register
for a fitness assessment. Complete the enrollment form and
return it to Campus Recreation Services today!
Please call 248-1591 or email Bob
