Build Healthy Habits

While self-care has its own rewards, benefits-eligible employees can also earn up to $280 (taxable) per program year by participating in BeWell offerings designed to help you build and maintain healthy habits. Such offerings include:

Wellness Check-in

Check in with a BeWell coach each year to stay aligned with healthy habits that support your energy, focus, and overall well-being. Coaches help you set goals and make the most of your BeWell experience.

Healthy Living classes

Explore evidence-based classes, apps, and coaching on topics like nutrition, mindfulness, resilience, and prevention through Healthy Living, the educational component of BeWell. Join virtual or in-person sessions, or watch on-demand webinars anytime. All offerings are free or STAP-approved.

Fitness assessments and personal training

Build a fitness plan and track your progress with free personal training and annual fitness assessments designed to help you stay strong, active, and motivated.

Mobile app and digital platform

Use the BeWell platform on your desktop or mobile device to build healthy habits with bite-sized wellness tips and tools you can access anytime, anywhere. Watch quick videos and track your movement and sleep to measure progress over time.
