What is wellness?

In simple terms, wellness means feeling good in all parts of your life. It's not just about being free from sickness, but also about feeling happy, energetic, and balanced. Wellness includes taking care of your body by eating healthy foods, exercising, and getting enough sleep. It also means taking care of your mind by managing stress, staying positive, and having good relationships with others. Wellness is about finding a balance that makes you feel your best, both physically and mentally.

Canadore has a variety of wellness supports in place for International students.
