About The Nova Challenge
Although summer is giving us some motivation, Covid can be draining it. Queue The Nova Challenge! Let’s put in the basic effort now and reap the benefits throughout the summer.
Wellness Habit Building
The Nova Challenge starts April 5th and ends June 30th. This three month app based wellness challenge is open to all members and their families. The challenge has been designed for everyone, with multiple wellness components such as fitness, nutrition, mental health, rest and recovery, nature and community. This free challenge is meant to encourage Nova members to try new things and step outside their comfort zones to reach heightened physical, mental and spiritual health.
Daily Challenges
The Nova Challenge will be completed using an app called Obii, here you will find all the challenges for each day. When you open the app, you will find a card at the front with rules and tips, following that you will see cards for each day that will present you the daily challenges. As you open each day there will be anywhere from 1-5 challenges for the day with each challenge having an accompanying number of points for completion. These challenges can be completed at any time, and you can always go back to missed challenges. However, you cannot go ahead. That being said each day will unlock new challenges giving you more opportunity to try new things for points. Each day has something for everyone. Here are some examples of challenges:
- Fitness: 10 Pushups.
- Nutrition: Cook a recipe with this secret ingredient.
- Rest & Recovery: Take a nap.
- Mental Health: Breathe
- Nature: Cloud Spotting
- Community: Call or visit and old friend
Monthly Focuses
The Nova Challenge is broken down into three separate months each with its own focus. April starts with a focus on exercise, May incorporates more nutrition, and finally June dives deeper into mental health. Although this is a three month challenge, you can join any time. Each month also will have some bigger bonus challenges that you can work on through the whole month like sleep or steps.
Community
Check the leaderboard at any time to see where you stand alongside the other members. While completing as many daily challenges as possible is the goal, do not stress yourself out about it. Focus on trying new things, doing your best, and having fun. Although some may take this challenge as a competition, the goal is to support each other along the way so we can all grow to become better versions of ourselves. If you ever have any words of encouragement for fellow participants just throw them into the chat.
