Wellness Message - Shana Hansen

So, what has been happening this quarter? Exciting things! C3 is ramping up its efforts to promote a sustainable health and wellness model to the complex employees and thereby our community. C3 continues to offer weekly yoga sessions, monthly chair yoga sessions, Lunch and Learns, and a host of participant challenges. All of these have garnered profound support from the complex employees and we constantly receive rave reviews. Several of the challenges C3 has offered: The Walking Challenge, C3 Recipe Swap, the C3 180 Day Makeover Challenge and the Couch to 5K Challenge. Additionally, Kelly McBride, certified personal trainer & weight loss specialist, graciously hosted a Lunch and Learn in our monthly series and led our first ever 5k Run and Walk, the Couch to 5K challenge. On April 7, 2018, C3 participated in the 8 th Annual Hot Diggity Dog 5k & Walk hosted by the Mississippi School for the Blind. It was such a fun event that C3 plans to make this an integral annual wellness event! Challenge participants have shown and provided first-hand testimonies that the organization of these activities are well worth the time and money invested. Participants have been motivated to challenge themselves and their co-workers. This has added a friendly competitive atmosphere to the education complex.
