Fun Wellness Widgets

A widget is loosely defined as "a device or control that is very useful for a particular job." According to wikipedia, a web widget is "a portable chunk of code that can be installed and executed within any separate HTML-based web page by an end user without requiring additional compilation."

In searching for Wellness widgets to add to the Creating Wellness Blog, I found several from the Wellsphere website. Their mission is "to help millions of people live healthier, happier lives by connecting them with the knowledge, people and tools they need to manage and improve their health."

Wellsphere Widgets

You can add fun and free Wellness Widgets or WellWidgets to your blog from Wellsphere.

I've added two of the widgets available, the WellTip of the Day and the Wellevation Widget to the sidebar on this Creating Wellness Blog. Every time you refresh your browser, you get a new tip.

They also have a Wellternatives that gives you healthy meal alternatives at your local restaurant. You can customize what you want to display in each of the widgets.
