Welcome to the Winter STREAK Wellness Program! We invite you and your family to embrace winter, keep moving and stay healthy! Ready to join others in your community, committed to keeping up a “streak” of physical and mental well-being activities through the next few months? You can do it!
"Winter STREAK" stands for
- S - Start: Get motivated, set individual goals, determine your readiness to change and get started.
- T - Trekking: Get active outdoors in the cold weather.
- R – Relax: Practice relaxing, mindful behaviors.
- E - Eat Healthy: Make healthy food and drink choices.
- A - Activity: Commit to increase physical activity.
- K - Keep it Going: Find personal and community resources and supports to help you keep it going.
The Winter STREAK Wellness Program is a FREE 12-week community program designed to promote wellness by encouraging participants to increase physical activity, eat healthy and reduce stress. It is a fun and effective way to increase your health and well-being during these cold winter months. Programs and activities will focus on the STREAK concepts.
Who can participate?
This challenge is open to everyone. Invite your spouse, partner, children, co-workers and friends to participate with you as you “STREAK” through the winter!
When do we start?!
The Winter STREAK runs Monday, January 4, 2021 through Friday, March 26, 2021. But you can join at any time to qualify for prizes.
What is the goal?
Complete a STREAK in any form or fashion to string together daily, consistent, healthy habits over time. WellSpan Health and its community partners have created a series of workshops, bingo cards, a guide and a resource library to support you on this journey.
