Brief Description: Many of us make New Year’s resolutions to improve our health, only to find ourselves falling back into the same unhealthy habits a few weeks later. Explore new ways to take care of yourself, so you can take better care of your students. Learn how being healthy decreases health care costs, while contributing to our state’s economy by increasing effectiveness, productivity, and longevity. Participate in engaging and informative sessions including: completing a health-risk appraisal; checking your blood pressure and body fat composition; receiving specialized counseling on weight control and stress management; increasing flexibility; and establishing a fitness and walking program. Learn ways to lower your cholesterol, prevent osteoporosis, monitor your blood pressure, and get answers to questions about the correct vitamins and minerals your body needs. Return to your classroom and daily life with new knowledge and strategies for a new, healthier you. “Registration begins September 29, 2009.”
