Keeping the brain sharp is just as important as caring for the body! The Brain Gains Challenge is designed to help participants strengthen intellectual wellness by developing mental habits that support clarity, confidence, and lifelong learning. By prioritizing cognitive health, individuals can improve information processing, sharpen problem-solving skills, and feel more focused at work and in everyday life.
To start, participants will learn about intellectual wellness and how mentally stimulating activities enhance memory, creativity, and cognitive resilience. They will earn Wellable Points for practicing daily Brain-Boosting Activities that support brain health and completing weekly Brain Games to put their skills into action while building mental agility.
For each Brain-Boosting Activity a participant completes, they will be entered into a raffle to win a reward. Participants will also earn entries for a separate raffle by completing the weekly Brain Games. Grand prizes will also be awarded at the end of the challenge to two participants using a Wellable Points-based raffle, where each Wellable Point earned equals one entry into the raffle.
The raffle structure helps stretch a rewards budget for maximum impact by encouraging participation throughout the challenge, as the odds of winning a prize increase with the number of Brain-Boosting Activities practiced, Brain Games played, and Wellable Points earned.
Looking for reward ideas? Try gifting prizes that support cognitive health. Rewards like eBook subscriptions, professional development courses, language-learning apps, or gift cards to develop a new skill (e.g., coding, photography, cooking, music) are powerful options to consider.
Wellable Points can be earned by tracking distance traveled from walking and running through one of Wellable's partner apps or by manually logging these activities in a Wellable User Account.
Wellable Points can be earned by tracking distance traveled from cycling through one of Wellable's partner apps or by manually logging these activities in a Wellable User Account.
Wellable Points can be earned by tracking other fitness activities, such as yoga, aerobics, and weightlifting, through one of Wellable's partner apps or by manually logging these activities in a Wellable User Account.
At the beginning of the challenge, participants receive educational content about different ways to engage the brain and how these activities support cognitive, physical, and mental health. Each day of the challenge, participants earn Wellable Points for engaging in Brain-Boosting Activities. This Special Activity can be logged once per day during the challenge.
Brain Games are puzzles, strategy challenges, and visual exercises that challenge cognitive skills like memory, logic, attention, pattern recognition, and problem-solving. Each week, participants will receive a new Brain Game via email. After completing the game, they will be prompted to submit a photo of their completed Brain Game to receive a code, log the activity, and earn Wellable Points. Each Brain Game can be logged for Wellable Points once during the challenge.
