3. Schedule a Wellness Coaching Session 

Be a resource for your residents. All students can benefit from an Individual Wellness Coaching  Session offered through the Office of Health Promotion. The session is a virtual, one-hour personal health conversation with one of our trained Student Wellness Coaches to discuss health goals and develop a personal plan. This conversation is a great referral to make to any of your residents seeking additional support towards reaching health goals and balance here at BC.

5. Promote Journey to Wellness

Encourage your residents to participate in Journey to Wellness: Mind, Body, Soul by participating in online activities around each theme and complete the monthly online activities and attend events around each theme. You can use content from these months for your own programs, incentive participation within your floor, and align your programming with these topics to promote holistic wellness.
