Nightingale Wellness Program
Great Outdoors Month – Let Nature Nurture You! This June, we are inviting you to stretch beyond your screen and into the sunshine because it is Great Outdoors Month! Whether you’ve got five minutes or a free weekend, there is magic waiting outside your door. Summer is the perfect time to let the great outdoors become your wellness playground. Not sure where to start? Try sipping your morning coffee or tea on your porch, hosting your next Teams call under a tree, or even creating a backyard picnic for one. You can forage for wildflowers, try cloud watching, journal on a park bench, or explore a trail you have never tried before. Even short midday strolls count! Nature has a way of calming the nervous system, grounding our thoughts, and infusing us with clarity, without needing Wi-Fi. Just a few minutes outside can spark feel-good chemicals in the brain, helping to lift your mood, reduce stress, and remind you that you are a part of something bigger! Looking for a Challenge? You can plan a “no-phone nature hour,” make a nature-inspired vision board, or create a mini outdoor retreat with music, movement, and mindfulness. Turn your walk into a moving meditation, sketch what you see around you, or write a letter to your future self from the comfort of a hammock. You don’t need a mountaintop to experience the healing power of the Earth — sometimes, it’s right in your own backyard. The sweet bonus of all of this is when you engage in outdoor activities that support your wellness, you can log these activities in Personify Health to earn points while you nourish your body, mind, and spirit. Challenge dates run from June 1 to August 31. Collaborators can take part in these challenges once per month and up to three times total this summer. It is a breath of fresh air for your well-being and your rewards. You can find it under the “Benefits” tab on Personify Health for more information. Let’s get outside, play with intention, and let nature be our teacher this June. Adventure (even the tiniest kind) is calling — let’s answer it, together.
