Wellness Wednesday

Happy Earth Day! Get outside this week and enjoy all that Mother Nature has to offer with one of 80 Hiking Trails in the Rochester area. While you are out on your hike, pick up some items to make your own art at home. Whether it is rocks, sticks, moss, or leaves you can create so much beauty with things in nature. Make sure you post your creativity on our MCC Wellness Council Facebook page.

Tying in with the Earth Day project, do not forget about MCC Rocks! We are looking for you to help us make an MCC Rock Garden. Wherever you find your rocks, pick them up and bring them home. Clean and dry them off, brush some paint on them, add an inspirational message, let them dry and put them in a safe spot. Once we return to campus, The MCC Wellness Council will host a celebration where you can bring your decorated rocks to our official "MCC Rocks" Garden. Get the family involved. Post your rock photos on our Facebook page. Need some inspiration to get started, check out our MCC Rocks Pinterest Board.

This week's humor comes from Christine Cormack, Visual and Performing Arts, and a new rendition of Let it Go, Stay at Home, that will sure get you singing the lyrics in no time! You may even see a reference to Rochester in the video! Do you have a funny video you want to share with us? Help us promote health by humor by sending a funny video that has brought a smile to your face during this challenging time to MCCWellness@monroecc.edu. Include a sentence as to why this video was meaningful to you. We will feature one video a week during our Wellness Wednesday!

Do you have a favorite recipe? Is there something that your family raves about and wants you to make all the time? The Wellness Council wants to feature your recipe on our monthly calendar and Facebook page! Send your recipe to MCCWellness@monroecc.edu. This week's healthy recipe is Zucchini Lasagna and it is the perfect recipe to make while you are working from home.

Make sure to stay connected with us on Facebook and at our MCC Lib Guide at http://libguides.monroecc.edu/wellness.

Have a wonderful week!
