Spring into Wellness - Free Health Screenings and Lunchtime Fun

For those of you in and around the Hanover County Courthouse complex (of course, all are welcome), here are two exciting wellness opportunities beginning and/or taking place next week that you'll want to check out:
Lunch Yoga starts a new spring session on Monday, Apr. 8. What's in it for you? You'll gain better overall health, improve your self-esteem, get energized for those long afternoons at work, increase both your physical and mental flexibility, and feel happier and more relaxed than before! As always, don't forget about the 50% off payroll incentive available for attending a minimum number of classes each session. Drop an e-mail to Silvia Crumpton at smcrumpton@hanovercounty.gov to register. Space is limited, and you don't want to miss out on the fun!
Be Well's Spring Health Fair takes place Tuesday, Apr. 9 at the County Complex's Wickham Building Lunch Room from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. By participating, you'll improve your overall well-being but also possibly advance your sense of success, prompt changes in your lifestyle, gain awareness of conditions such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol, or find creative ways to deal with stress. Health screenings (including cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, and blood sugar) will be administered by professionals from Bon Secours. Check out the fitness testing station and find out just how fit you really are - then talk to a personal trainer about your goals for free. Plus, pick up a free walking pedometer while supplies last and enjoy a wonderful five minute chair massage, too! Please note that each event (health screenings, fitness testing, and chair massage) have separate registrations, and that you must register for and participate in the health screenings first. Walk-ins are welcome on Tuesday for the health screenings only. Make the investment in yourself and attend this fantastic free fair!
