Healthy Dawg
Introducing Healthy Dawg!
Do you want to be a Healthy Dawg? Doesn't everyone? Learn how!
Who can be a Healthy Dawg?
If you are a member of the "Bulldawg Nation" and striving towards health, you can be a Healthy Dawg. That means students, faculty, staff, alumni and fans!
What is considered healthy?
Healthy behaviors enhance the general condition of the body or mind in order to increase the ability to live life fully with vitality and meaning.
What are the Healthy Dawg dimensions?
We often think of health in terms of being physically fit or free from illness. However, health is defined as being multidimensional. The six health dimensions represented by the Healthy Dawg mascot's juggling balls are: emotional, intellectual, physical, environmental, social and spiritual.
What should every Healthy Dawg know?
- Health goes beyond the absence of illness or injury.
- There are multiple dimensions of health.
- Balance is key.
- Striving towards health requires effort.
- It's important to be an informed health care consumer.
- Striving for good health is a life-long pursuit and involves continual learning and making changes to enhance your state of well-being.
