“Harness the Power of All Over Health”
Whole-body wellness is about finding balance in all areas of life: staying active, eating nourishing foods, getting enough sleep, managing stress, and nurturing mental health. When you care for your whole self, you build resilience, boost your energy, and improve your overall quality of life. Here’s how you can make small, sustainable choices that help you feel your best every day:
EAT RIGHT
It’s well known that a healthy diet can help you live longer. It also prevents disease, improves mood, and builds strong bones.
■ Ask your health provider for resources to help you manage conditions like high cholesterol and blood pressure, digestive issues, or pre-diabetes, through a science-backed meal plan.
■ Get nutritional counseling to help manage diabetes or eating disorders, or for obesity-related treatment. Your benefits cover this service in these situations.
GET MOVING
You’ll immediately feel better, function better, and sleep better. Aim for at least 150 minutes a week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity.
■ Work with a health coach to get fit (or eat healthier, reach a healthy weight, quit smoking, and more). Ask your healthcare provider for a referral.
GET PREVENTIVE CARE
It’s key to helping you stay healthy and detect health problems early on.
■ Schedule a routine physical exam and talk to your provider about the screenings that are right for you. Your benefits cover 100% of U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommended services at an in-network provider.
GO TO THE DENTIST
Routine dental care helps prevent cavities, reduces gum disease, stops tooth loss, brightens your smile, and boosts your overall health.
■ Your benefits cover two routine cleanings/exams per year (coinsurance varies by Plan).
GET EYE EXAMS
Regular eye exams maintain optimal eye health and overall wellness, as well as provide vision correction. ■ Your benefits cover comprehensive vision exams (coinsurance and frequency varies by Plan).
PRACTICE MENTAL WELLNESS
Building resilience can help you handle life’s challenges while maintaining a sense of calm, balance and well-being.
■ The Fund gives you several ways to access behavioral health care (see “Mental Health, Made Simple”).
■ Try Aetna’s MindCheck (mindchecktoday.com) to get a quick read on your emotional health and access self-help resources.
