OCU StarPower Wellness Mission Statement

Oklahoma City University’s StarPower Wellness Program is designed to increase the health and wellness of its students, faculty, and staff through initiatives focused on the enrichment of the mind, body, and spirit.

OCU recognizes its responsibility to ensure our students, faculty, and staff are equipped with the knowledge, tools, and support needed to lead healthy lives. Studies have shown that individuals with healthy behaviors reduce the occurrence of absenteeism (sick days) and presenteeism (operating at a lower functioning level because of oncoming illness).

Upcoming Events

The Holidays—time for family, fun, celebration, decorating, stress, overeating, shopping in crowds, overspending, and, in January—regret (sometimes).
A fitness challenge to help you avoid the feeling of regret in January.

Commit to exercising (your choice of activities) an average of two times each week, AND watch what you eat by gaining LESS THAN two pounds between November 17th and January 3rd .
That’s it. Do it and you win.

Fill out and turn in by November 18th the form at: http://starnet.okcu.edu/admin/AdminServ/Wellness/Forms/AllItems.aspx

The Reindeer Workout Registration/Results Form, and print The Reindeer Workout Log to keep track of your progress
(You won’t be turning in the log with your weight on it, just the results form that says whether you did or didn’t meet the challenge).

Those that meet the challenge may choose from any of the lovely wellness incentive prizes on hand awarded this year: t-shirt, carry bag, water bottle koozie, travel mug, or reusable shopping bag.
