Perry County OSU Extension Office’s Spring Email Challenge

The Perry County OSU Extension Office is gearing up for a fun challenge to help with your wellness.

Misty Harmon, an Educator in Family and Consumer Sciences with the Extension Office, said the Finding Your Path to Wellness Spring Email Challenge will start on April 8th. She also detailed how the Email Challenge works.

“We send messages out once a week for 6 weeks about health related topics,” Harmon said. “Sustainability, how to be active, finances and just different things and then every week we have a webinar related to the content of that email for the week.”

Harmon said one way to take care of your wellness is with laughter. She said laughing can help improve things like your mood and mentality while improving relationships.

“Sometimes people say ‘I need to laugh or I might cry.’, well there’s a reason for that,” Harmon said. “It’s because that release of those endorphins helps us and it strengthens relationships. When we’re able to laugh with people and have fun with them, that does help to strengthen and build those relationships.”
