About this event

In this panel discussion, four health and wellness professionals share their best ideas for staying motivated to achieve better physical and mental health. Our panel will discuss walking, yoga, and other forms of exercise and activities that are good for your health.

Being healthy doesn’t mean looking a certain way, maintaining a certain weight, or being happy all the time. Rather, it’s about making a conscious choice to do little things every day that nourish your body and soul. This online event will help you get started.
