Wellness Week: "Move"
The UPEI Healthy Campus Committee is pleased to announce Wellness Week: Together We Thrive, running from November 17 to November 20, 2026. Designed to cultivate physical, mental, and social well-being of students, staff, and faculty across campus, the week presents a series of themed days that encourage connection, healthy nutrition, active movement, and school spirit.
On Thursday, November 19, is “Move,” an initiative dedicated to physical vitality, active motion, and functional wellness. Situated on the second floor of the Chi-Wan Young Sports Centre from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, this day offers multiple interactive ways to get active without needing to pre-register. Participants can take part in "Desk Reset: Chair Yoga and Mindfulness Break"—a 25-minute session offered at 11:30 am, 12:00 pm, and 12:30 pm featuring gentle chair yoga, desk-friendly stretches, and tension-releasing mindfulness techniques, followed by a brief Q&A. Limited space for the Desk Reset sessions is granted on a first-come, first-served basis. Additionally, attendees can take a guided tour of the Fitness Centre to learn how to operate various workout equipment or join the interactive Track Circuit led by kinesiology students, walking or running the indoor track while stopping at exercise stations designed for strength, movement, and balance.
