The NDSU Wellness Center is promoting the Healthy Monday Challenge to students this semester. The challenge is based on the Healthy Monday Campaign developed from research conducted by Johns Hopkins University that indicates people regard Monday as “a day for a fresh start and a chance to set healthy intentions for the next six days.”

The Healthy Monday Challenge encourages students to use Monday each week as a day to start improving their health. Health and wellness tips will be posted on the Wellness Center’s website weekly and participating students will be eligible to win weekly prizes. The goal is to help students improve their stress levels, time management skills, financial wellness and overall quality of life.

Students can get more information on the program at www.ndsu.edu/wellness/healthy_mondays. Registration to participate in the program is available on Blackboard.
