Integrated Wellness: Mind, Body and Finances

Join us for a half-day wellness event focused on supporting the whole self – mind, body, finances

Take a morning to invest in yourself and earn PLUs. This Saturday conference is designed to support your wellbeing in meaningful, practical ways — bringing together expert guidance, useful resources, and space to recharge alongside colleagues.

We know that wellbeing is shaped by more than physical health. That’s why this event brings together trusted voices to share strategies for managing stress, strengthening financial security, and building sustainable habits for everyday health — supporting you in your work, your home life, and everything in between.

We are finalizing the full agenda, with three engaging speakers planned:

• Janet Gerhard of FHE Health will lead a session on burnout and mental health wellness, along with resources available through a new NEARI partnership that connects members to confidential support outside of administration.
• Jim King of The Enrollment Network will present on financial wellness, including accessible options and services available through payroll deduction.
• Emily Tessier, RDN, LDN is a nutrition expert who will share realistic, time-conscious approaches to healthy eating — especially for those quick 18-minute breaks.

Beyond the sessions, the day is designed to be both energizing and restorative. Enjoy healthy food throughout the event, take part in raffles and giveaways featuring wellness-related products, and spend some time at our flower bouquet-making station — a chance to slow down, connect, and create something to take home.

As a brand-new offering this year, we’re excited to launch what we hope will become a signature annual event that grows alongside our members’ needs.

You’ll leave with practical tools, trusted resources, and a renewed sense of how to care for yourself in a demanding profession — because supporting educators means supporting the whole person.
