What is Well-being?

Well-being means something different to everyone, but in general, it is the sense of feeling good about you and your place in the world.  Well-being goes beyond the classroom and career.  It is intentional, it brings balance to oneself…body, mind, and spirit. Staying healthy in body, mind, and spirit is a life-long journey.  Learn strategies to improve your own well-being with steps to security, health and prosperity.

Social Well-being

Social Well-being is having a sense of belonging—and a connection with others, which can significantly impact your well-being.

Getting involved on campus is a great way to find others who share your interests and passions.
