WLA Dream Team Moves, Grooves, and Wins
Congratulations to the WLA Dream Team, winners of the Pump Up the Jams Challenge in February. This fantabulous team logged the highest average number of cardio minutes during the challenge. Team members include Irwing S., Ze’ev G., Arthur Y., Taylor C., Melvin A., and Erik R.
Individual prizes for the most cardio minutes logged during the challenge were awarded to Elwood H. and Anna I. Way to move and groove, winners!
If you participated in the challenge and logged 500 minutes of cardio between February 1 and March 5, you earned 500 bWell points. Stellar.
The Brick is Back
Brick mobile phones were a status symbol for Yuppies in the 80s. That’s why Totally bWell has elevated it to top-level status. Participants earning 8,000 bWell points and reaching the Brick Phone level by August 31, 2021, are eligible to win rad prizes.
After six months of awesome effort, Totally bWell participants are blowing through the levels and collecting rewards along the way:

Self Care
Everyone has the tendency to over-extend themselves in caring for others. Whether it be caring for coworkers, neighbors, children, or friends, we all tend to make more time for others and less time for ourselves. Self-care can mean many things to many people, but don’t overthink this challenge’s focus. If you feel as though you carved out a couple of minutes for yourself today, track “Yes.” It could be five minutes with your eyes closed before you open your email or maybe a whole day spent outside at a park. Take what you can give yourself at that moment. Find the Self Care challenge under the Quarterly Challenges section at mybmcwellness.com.
Track “Yes” 60 times out of the next 90 days to earn your 150 bWell points.
