Wellness and Fitness
When you take time to look after your health, you’re not just feeling better—you're also setting yourself up for success in school. Students who practice good self-care tend to do well throughout the semester and keep coming back each term. Exercise, sleep, and healthy food help your body and mind work together so you can learn more and enjoy it.
All that being said, we know it can sometimes be difficult to balance work, school, family, friends, fun, and wellness. Don’t worry, our EMCC Fitness & Wellness Team is here to help! (Are you an EMCC Employee? Click here for employee-specific information.)
Self-Assessment
The first step to improving your wellness is having an understanding of where your wellness efforts currently stand. Take this quick self-assessment to help you reflect on whether or not you are intentional about caring for yourself in a healthy way. Make sure to include your email address if you would like a copy of your answers. Remember: This is a judgement-free zone!
