COVID-19 and Be Well Utah Update

Out of concern of our community, all Be Well Utah events will be held virtually until we can safely bring in-person events back to our community.

Wellness: Maintaining a Healthy Mind, Body, and Spirit

We want to share with you what it means to Be Well! Wellness comes from healing and maintaining a healthy mind, body, and spirit through nourishing food, proper exercise, and appropriately coping with stress, resulting in an overall feeling of well-being.

At University of Utah Health, we understand that achieving and maintaining wellness is an ongoing process. Wellness often means taking small steps toward healthier habits. We are committed to helping Utah families discover and adopt ways to enjoy a healthy lifestyle. As part of this commitment, We are bringing you Be Well Utah (VIRTUAL EDITION)—a celebration of wellness!

A Celebration of Wellness (Virtually!)

We invite you and your family to participate in our virtual wellness activities from the safety of your home. These consist of virtual cooking demos, virtual PE classes, a virtual Winter Wellness challenge, and more! The best part? Everything is free!

Join the Be Well Utah Winter Challenge: 4 Weeks of Winter Wellness.

How are you experiencing nature during the winter? Have you started an indoor plant garden or are you planning a hike or heading out to cross-country skiing in the Wasatch?

To bring nature into your lives, we want to encourage you and your family to continue getting outside (safely) during winter. Join us weekly as we challenge you to share your outdoor experiences with us.

This will consist of:

  • Facebook live events,
  • giveaways, and
  • a virtual community as we continue to be well.

For more information, check out the Be Well Utah Winter Challenge: 4 Weeks of Winter Wellness event page.
