Sophomore, Teresa Uczekaj, is a regular yoga practitioner, but decided to use the Mind and Body Week's opportunity to take free classes as a way to get together with friends.
"I think it is a great idea for a lot of people who are afraid to spend the money," said Teresa, referring to class fees waived by HellWell during Mind and Body Week.
Classes are not the only thing free during Mind and Body Week; so are the prizes raffled off at every class. Prizes include yoga mats, aromatherapy oils, yoga straps and inspirational quote books.
There also will be a drawing at the end of the week for a free mind and body pass for fall 2007. Anyone who attends a mind a body class this week will be entered into the drawing.
Besides providing students with free classes and useful giveaways, HellWell is also providing students with information on positive body image and eating disorder awareness.
These brightly colored pamphlets available at HellWell offer advice on helping a friend with an eating or body image issues, a schedule of mind and body week classes, 10 steps to developing a positive body image and information about enhancing male body image.
"Your body is the most important thing you own," said Hendricks, who has seen eating disorders become an increasing problem on campus over the past few years.
"It's not always rush, rush, rush to get something done," said Hendricks, who encourages students to spend a few hours each week focusing on themselves, which she believes is just as important as staying active.
