Physical… fueling your body
Your physical well-being is about so much more than just preventing illness or disease. It involves embracing healthy habits, taking preventive measures, and focusing on your body to give yourself the endurance and motivation to thrive.
Be well, stay well
Well-being is about taking care of yourself when you’re healthy, as well as getting the care you need when you’re sick. Taking the time to get an annual preventive care exam and regularly checking up on your health can help you stay healthy and reduce your risk of long-term health problems. Through Limeade, you can get a biometric health screening and take the Well-being Assessment to help you evaluate your current health and well-being. When you know your starting point, you can more accurately set goals and take steps to improve your health.

Eat well – your stomach and brain will thank you
You have access to nutrition classes through Wellbeats, so you can build perfect meal plans that work for you, your lifestyle, and your personal nutritional goals. With our busy schedules, it’s often more convenient to stop for a quick bite or order in from a restaurant – a choice that may not always be so healthy since many prepared meals come with higher amounts of salt, fat, and calories. Wellbeats can provide nutritional education so you feel prepared and confident to make healthy choices that fit into your daily routine.
Make your move
Being physically healthy comes with many health benefits, including strong muscles and bones, reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and Type 2 diabetes, and increased chances of a longer – and healthier – life. Your body’s reaction to sustained exercise also helps reduce stress and anxiety, boosting your social and emotional well-being. Stay active in a way that interests you and makes sense for your goals – participate in a competitive team sport, practice yoga, go for a walk or run, lift weights, or go swimming.
Prioritize good sleeping habits
On average, adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep a night. Giving your body the rest it needs is key to your overall well-being, can improve your mental health, and helps you make decisions and process emotions. Sleep deprivation can increase your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and stroke. If you find that you struggle to fall asleep (or stay asleep through the night), try to set a consistent bedtime and wake-up time for yourself and stick to it as much as possible. If you find it hard to calm your mind to sleep, consider taking advantage of information and resources through meQuilibrium (including reading helpful articles).
