Social Wellness: Put It Into Practice and Happy Holidays from PCOW

As we head into our holiday break, how can we define Social Wellness in our lives? How can we connect better with our friends or immediate and extended family? Time is our most important treasure that we can give someone every day of the year. Whether we are interacting over food, writing a hand-written note, or enjoying an event together, let us take time this holiday break to practice good wellness, not just social, but also the other dimensions of our wellness wheel: spiritual, financial, mental, occupational, and physical.

The President’s Council on Wellness would like to wish you and your family a Happy Holiday season. In gathering with family and friends and celebrating our wonderful holiday traditions, let’s continue to build our relationships with those around us to help create and practice good wellness. As we welcome in 2020, plan those lunches with friends, attend a UMW Great Lives Series on Tuesdays or Thursdays, or find fun events to attend in downtown Fredericksburg. Share those with us on our Facebook page: UMW Wellness and enjoy the beauty of the holiday season.
