As a pillar within the Werklund School academic plan, the wellbeing of our faculty, support staff and students matter.

Profiles in Wellness at Werklund

At Werklund, we're interested in how academic and support staff, as well as our students, support their wellness. We believe that sharing the benefits of our self-care activities with each other can help build our collective well-being. 

We invite you to participate by describing your wellness activity in a personal quote in the form below, and then upload a photograph of yourself taking part in the activity - whether it's meditative or athletic, enjoying a still moment or something more action-oriented.  We're interested in learning how each of us takes care of our wellness. 

This initiative is supported by the UCalgary Health Champions Committee, led by Dr. Shelly Russell-Mayhew and Ever Active Schools, and is meant to elevate the profile of wellness within the Werklund School and across UCalgary. 

Thank you for your participation!
