BONUS ACTIVITES
Engage in wellness activities and earn bonus points to help you achieve your goals. Once the Challenge has started, tap the Bonus Activities button* at the bottom of the Challenge App.
Social Connect: Earn 500 bonus points per connection. Just stop by the registration desk to pick up your Wellness Challenge ribbon to identify you to fellow Challengers. Then connect with them via your Challenge app and learn what they are interested in learning from others at this event. As you connect with others, also exchange your W.E.I.R.D. postcard with someone who made you feel sense of belonging—someone who made you feel seen, heard, recognized, and valued.
Sound Healing: Sound healing utilizes sound frequencies and vibrations, like those from singing bowls, to induce relaxation, promote healing, and enhance well-being. Find a quiet space away from external stimuli and follow along with the in-app video. You will receive 1,000 bonus points per day at the end of each session.
Gratitude Journal: Use the app and enter the 3 things you are grateful for or the positive events that have happened in your day. Practice your journaling daily to lower stress levels and feel calmer at night. You will automatically receive 1,000 bonus points per day for completing your journal entries.
Yoga: Follow along with the in-app yoga video session and you will receive 1,000 bonus points per day at the end of each session.
