Start the Journey to Wellness

Being healthy, or keeping your workforce healthy, can be hard. Wading through all the resources can be overwhelming.

Mayo Clinic Health System has cut through the noise and bundled key materials into free monthly toolkits to keep you, and your employees, family and friends healthy. Each month, we'll focus on a different aspect of healthy living.

During this yearlong program, you use the provided resources and activities, choosing those that are important to you and completing them on your schedule. Those who register will receive access to a new toolkit each month that includes resources, such as blogs, videos, handouts and activities. You'll also have access to explore resources from previous months.

Employers can enroll on behalf of the workplace and send resources directly to their workforce each month. Or they can ask employees to enroll individually if preferred.

Individuals can enroll and guide themselves through the resources each month. Feel free to get family and friends involved.
