Well-Being
There is no time like the present to check in and develop a greater understanding of your well-being! We define well-being as “an optimal and dynamic state that allows people to achieve their full potential” (NIRSA, 2020). Here at Mason Recreation, we strive for this to be done as an individual and within a community.
