(Lafayette, Louisiana) - School is back in session, and life goes on. But that doesn't mean you should ignore your health with all the distractions. Find some time to visit Moncus Park as they salute National Wellness Month with a series of activities throughout the park to help you get your mind and body aligned again.

What is National Wellness Month?

National Wellness Month is observed each August as a time to focus on self-care, healthy routines, and mindful living. The idea was launched in 2018 by Live Love Spa, with the goal of getting people to focus on their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. And let's face it, we could all use with a little focus on our well-being.

Over the years, National Wellness Month has expanded beyond spas and wellness centers to include community organizations, fitness groups, parks, and workplaces as well as Moncus Park.
