Introducing the 2026 Sass Wellness Challenge

Sass Wellness Challenge 2026

The Sass Wellness Challenge empowers you to create a more positive, balanced lifestyle through small, intentional health and wellness shifts that add up to big results. We designed this challenge to feel supportive, uplifting, and fun — never restrictive or overwhelming.

Rather than focusing on fitness or weight loss, we take a holistic approach to wellness, caring for your mind, body, and soul. Each week, you’ll dive into a different wellness category, complete with practical tips, resources, and inspiration delivered through our weekly eNewsletter and social media.

As you move through the challenge, track your progress and share your journey by tagging Sass Magazine and using #SassWellnessChallenge on Facebook or Instagram. Every post counts as an entry to win fun prizes — because taking care of yourself should feel rewarding, too.

  • It gives us a reason to stay connected through the winter months and celebrate together at the end

When Does It Start?

The 2026 #SassWellnessChallenge kicks off on January 12, 2026 and runs for six weeks. You can jump in at any point — there’s no pressure to do each week perfectly or in order. This challenge is flexible, approachable, and built to meet you where you are.

Weekly Wellness Focus Areas

Each week centers on a simple intention designed to build awareness, consistency, and healthier habits over time.

WEEK 1: TIMEOUT 20 — Pause With Purpose

To kick things off, week one invites you to slow down and build intentional breaks into your day. Rather than pushing through constant hustle, you’ll practice pausing—even if only for a few minutes. Along the way, you’ll explore simple tools like breathing, intention setting, journaling, stretching, and mindfulness to reset your energy and refocus.

WEEK 2: EAT 5 — Fuel Up, Feel Better

Next, we shift the focus to nourishment. This week highlights how colorful, balanced meals support your mood, brain health, and energy levels. You’ll discover approachable recipes and practical tips that feel realistic, not restrictive—because the goal is progress, not perfection.

WEEK 3: SLEEP 7 — Restore Your Energy

By week three, rest takes center stage. Since sleep plays a powerful role in overall wellness, we’ll help you create routines that support deeper, more restorative rest. Expect cozy product picks, expert insights, and actionable strategies that show how quality sleep improves focus, mood, and emotional well-being.

WEEK 4: MOVE 30 — Feel Stronger Every Day

Then, we bring movement into the conversation—without the pressure of intense workouts. This week focuses on adding natural, feel-good movement throughout your day, whether you’re at your desk, at home, or on the go. You’ll learn accessible ways to stay active that feel energizing and supportive for every fitness level.

WEEK 5: HYDRATE 8 — Drink Up

After that, hydration steps into the spotlight. Through simple habits, helpful products, and creative ideas, you’ll find ways to make drinking more water both easier and more enjoyable. You’ll also see how proper hydration boosts digestion, focus, skin health, and daily energy.

WEEK 6: 4 ME — Build Your Sustainable Habit

Finally, week six ties everything together. This is your time to reflect, refine, and decide which wellness practices truly work for you. Instead of a short-term reset, you’ll build personalized routines designed to support your well-being long after the challenge ends.
