UAA Employee Wellness

UAA Employee Wellness UAA Employee Wellness is an initiative of the University of Alaska Anchorage, Department of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation (HPER).

The UAA Employee Wellness is a student-led program out of the Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation at UAA that provides learning opportunities for students and improves the wellness of the UAA campus and Anchorage community. In August 2015, the UAA Staff Council requested the department to conduct an on-campus wellness program for staff. We have developed our program in response

to a survey according to staff needs. The facilitators are students in the Bachelors of Science in Physical Education program who will benefit from the learning and leadership opportunities. Our employee wellness program is about offering wellness breaks to all UAA employees that involve fitness, health, and wellness activities all around campus for them to attend either on their lunch or some break time between their work day. The benefits of getting up and moving will greatly affect the rest of your work day in the most positive and productive way.

Happy Thanksgiving Eve!
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I am sharing a brief article on the Practice of Gratitude.

Practicing gratitude helps us view life through a more positive and optimistic lens. This Thanksgiving, I encourage everyone to use the following tips and really reflect on the things you are grateful for in your life!

While practicing gratitude may sound like just another lifestyle trend, there’s plenty of evidence to suggest that it can have a powerful transformative effect on people’s lives.

For today's breakfast, I am having homemade gluten-free honey bread with honey butter, apples, and pears, complimented by some mint leaf tea and a fresh smoothie!

This is the amazing recipe I follow to make this delicious homemade gluten-free honey bread!
https://glutenfreeonashoestring.com/gluten-free-honey-bread/
In addition to the recipe, I like to add lemon or orange zest to give the bread that little extra zing and I always try to use local Alaska honey!
Stay Wellthy!
