Hey RAs!!

Happy Wednesday! Here's your weekly dose of wellness wisdom:

Upcoming Events

New Bulletin Boards! Check out your hall's "Stay Well" bulletin board for updated information on eating disorders and body image!

Campus Happenings

Just Desserts! What better way to get your post-Valentine's sweet fix than by enjoying free desserts?! Friday from 9-midnight in the Terrace Room, enjoy free fancy desserts that you can decorate yourself! There will also be a pie-eating contest!

Mind, Body and Soul Food Day! On Monday, Feb. 20, there are two ways to get information about food activism. At noon in LC 217, two food activists will be speaking at a lunch panel for students interested in health and wellness. From 5:30-7:30pm in the Center Room in the LC, there will be a discussion on soul food and related health and cultural issues. 

Wellness Tip

You can help! If you think that someone you know may have an eating disorder or disordered eating, talk to your friend privately and ask what's going on.  Ask how you can help, and get them in touch with available resources, such as a Resident Assistant, Program Assistant, or Assistant Director.  Know your limits for supporting your friend; you are not responsible for their choices but you can assist by getting them in touch with trained professionals who have specialized tools to help :) (The Nemours Foundation, About Eating Disorders, 1995-2012.)

Defining Wellness

Disordered Eating:  Any abnormal eating pattern, ranging from less extreme to extreme behaviors. Disordered eating includes a collection of interrelated eating habits; weight management practices; attitudes about food, weight and body shape; and physiological imbalances. Disordered eating includes classic eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder) as well as eating patterns of lesser severity.  (Body Image and Disordered Eating, pg 7-2, 2000).

Dorm Room Workout

I'm Sexy And I Know It: 30 push ups, 30 plank hold, 3 rounds for time.  Look at all you did!  Feel that awesome body work for you! :-D

Have a healthy week!
