Get Well, Live Well and Thrive with the Eight Dimensions of Wellness

Dallas College is here to help you live a life that’s balanced and fulfilled. That’s why we’re kicking off the new year by launching the Eight Dimensions of Wellness — designed to help you get well, live well … and thrive!

Each dimension represents an area of your health and personal fulfillment that we support at Dallas College:

  • Physical
  • Emotional
  • Social
  • Intellectual
  • Occupational
  • Environmental
  • Financial
  • Spiritual

You can learn about each dimension and explore the resources and services we have available for you on the Eight Dimensions of Wellness webpage.

Join the Dallas College Thrives Scavenger Hunt (and Win Prizes!)

Ready to get well, live well, thrive — and win prizes? Welcome to the Dallas College Thrives Scavenger Hunt!

Build your awareness of the Eight Dimensions of Wellness and the services Dallas College offers by solving clues, taking photos and visiting key areas on your home campus related to wellness. 

  • The hunt begins Feb. 1 and runs through April 30.
  • Complete the hunt at your own pace within this time frame!

How It Works:

  1. Join the scavenger hunt on BrightSpace. You’ll be enrolled in a dedicated Brightspace module where the scavenger hunt challenges are posted.
  2. Complete Challenges. Each challenge will be related to one of the Eight Dimensions of Wellness. To complete a challenge, take a photo of yourself in the designated area (e.g., with the room number or specific signage) and submit it via BrightSpace for review.
  3. Win Prizes! There are a wide variety of prizes (including totes, tumblers, chargers and more!) that can be picked up at your campus. Prizes will be awarded throughout the semester for completing challenges. Not all challenges, however, will result in a prize.

Get More Wellness Tips

We’ll be highlighting wellness tips in the Student Newsletter throughout the Spring semester. Be sure to check your Dallas College email for the latest edition — the Student Newsletter hits inboxes every other Tuesday.

For questions about the Eight Dimensions of Wellness or scavenger hunt, contact the health promotion coordinator at your campus or email StudentWellbeing@DallasCollege.edu.
