2024 wellness challenge: Nourish
2024-04-08 08:00 - 2024-05-14 17:00
Kaiser Permanente is excited to announce our new 2024 wellness challenge, Nourish. This program is open to all employees at no cost. Nourish builds and reinforce healthy eating, sleep, exercise, and mindfulness habits — leading to the healthiest you. Eating more nutrient-rich and less nutrient-deficient food increases energy, lifts mood, and sharpens focus while enhancing well-being and helping you thrive.
The goal of this campaign is to grow 30 plants during the 6-week program. Aim for at least five plants a week to reveal delicious, healthy recipes featuring the ingredients you have grown.
Teams of up to five participants (yourself + four others) can be formed and may be the most fun part of this challenge. If you decide to join a team, you will be able to earn additional points upon completion of challenges on Thrive Thursdays. Scores are based on the team’s average points, including Thrive Thursday challenges.

Nourish is open to all Federal agents and household family members (18 yrs. old and over). Register below:
