2018 Staff Wellness Fair—winners, tips and pics!

06.19.18

On June 14, benefits vendors and wellness professionals set-up at our downtown clinic to discuss wellness with staff members. To make sure no stones were left unturned, we played a fun game of bingo and also asked staff to share their favorite wellness secrets with us. See all the results below!

Wellness tips from staff members

LaVeda Bacetti

  • I walk to and from 201, 421, CCP and ODB
  • Try to eat healthy
  • Drink more water
  • At home, I bike occasionally with my son and I enjoy dancing—especially Latin dancing with my husband

Chauna Brocht

My tip is Community Acupuncture. It’s only $25 which is a lot less than private acupuncture. It is a great stress reliever. There are clinics all over but I go to Mend in Remington.

Edith Augustson

I wanted to share my secret to remaining flu and cold free prior to any flu shot (I have only had a flu shot twice in my life due to it being mandatory for a job). 

  • Echinacea
  • Golden seal
  • Ginseng
  • Vitamin C
  • Green Tea (loose—boil, strain and drink)

Method: I take 3 of each in pill form day and night after I’m exposed to someone sick or begin to feel any symptoms. 

 

A special thanks to the vendors that came out!

  • Smoothie King
  • Under Armour
  • Brick Bodies
  • PNC
  • Carefirst
  • EyeMed
  • Cigna
  • AFLAC
