Healthy Living in 2022

Healthy living means making positive choices that enhance your well-being across all the dimensions of wellness: physical, nutritional, intellectual, social & community, mental & emotional, and spiritual. VIU supports your well-being through a wide variety of resources available to you and your family.

First up, consider your mental and emotional well-being as you move into 2022. Start your New Year right! The main reason that most New Year’s Resolutions don’t last is that people try to change too much. It soon becomes overwhelming, you feel discouraged, and ultimately give up and go back to the same old habits and patterns you’ve always had. The key to creating lasting, positive change is taking small steps consistently.

As we step into the new year, MindWell – a platform of well-being resources supported by VIU -- is offering bite-sized programs and classes to help you create lasting positive change and become the best version of yourself this year.

What’s on Offer?

Taking Care of the Mind that Leads

For all managers and people leaders, learn how to ground and remain resourced, relaxed and responsive as you effectively lead your team to success.

Learn to Meditate: Modern Mindfulness for a Busy Life

Akin to training your muscles at the gym, mindfulness capabilities can be strengthened by meditation. Learn the basics and create your own simple meditation practice.
