Revitalize your approach to personal development with our “Self-Care City Scavenger Hunt!” This event harnesses the dynamic VARK (Visual, Auditory, Read/Write, Kinesthetic) learning methodologies to create an engaging, self-guided adventure. Perfect for individuals or groups, it offers a fun and interactive way to explore wellness, which encompasses seven critical areas: Physical, Emotional, Intellectual, Social, Spiritual, Environmental, and Occupational. Our scavenger hunt is designed to support these facets of wellness through targeted self-care habits inspired by our Hot Habits series. Dive into this transformative experience to engage all your senses, explore your city, and create memorable moments that promote personal growth and lasting change.
