As a physical education teacher at Hebron High School in Carrollton, TX, I developed a Health and Wellness Club for our ninth-grade campus as an initiative to reduce obesity and related comorbidities that are associated with sedentary lifestyles and a lack of physical activity. The goal of the club was to educate students on the importance of physical activity and provide them with resources that would empower them to take ownership of their health and physical activity habits.

For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic? Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

The role of hormones in skin and hair health When thinking about radiant skin and hair, often the first associations that come to mind have to do with topical applications, such as moisturizers, sunscreens, shampoos, and conditioners. However, healthy hormonal balance can also play an important role in achieving a healthy glow from the inside out — including supporting the physiology of clear, radiant skin and strong, luxurious hair.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.
