Healthy Heart Challenge: My Wellness points and weekly giveaway available

January 30, 2023

February is Heart Health Month! There are many ways to improve heart health – from eating a nutritious diet, exercising, practicing stress management techniques and more. Join the My Wellness Healthy Heart challenge to complete activities and learn tips to improve your heart health. The goal of the challenge is to complete three activities each week throughout the four-week challenge. Registration opens Monday, Jan. 30, and the challenge runs Monday, Feb. 6, through Sunday, March 5. Record three activities for each week by Sunday, March 5, to receive 25 My Wellness points. 

How do I enroll in the challenge? 

Go to My Wellness Portal and enter your personal username and password. Once you land on the ‘Challenges’ page, you are now enrolled in the challenge! First time users see the Enroll Today! section on the Employee Wellness website. 

How do I log my activity? 

Log in to My Wellness Portal, click on the ‘Challenges’ tile and record the activity you completed and click ‘Save.’ While it is recommended that participants log activities each day, you have until the end of the challenge to record your activities. 

How am I eligible for My Rewards points and chances for giveaway prizes? 

The goal is to complete at least three activities each week. Participants who meet the goal throughout the entire four-week challenge will be awarded 25 My Rewards points. Participants who log three activities in a week will also be entered into the weekly prize giveaway (the week ends each Sunday at 7 p.m.). The challenge will be held Monday, Feb. 6, through Sunday, March 5. Registration opens Monday, Jan. 30; register three activities each week by March 5 to receive your My Wellness points. 

Interested in working with a health coach? 

Challenge participants are encouraged to work with a personal health coach to take your fitness to the next level. You can connect with a free health coach by calling 800-882-2109 or visiting the ‘Coaching’ tab on your My Wellness Portal.
