Healthy Bears TXT
What is HealthyBearsTXT? HealthyBearsTXT is a university-wide text message initiative offered as a tool to support Baylor students in their academic and personal well-being. The program provides encouragement, resources, and practical strategies to help students thrive in their college experience.
Why HealthyBearsTXT? Navigating college life can be challenging, and small reminders can make a big difference. HealthyBearsTXT delivers quick, actionable insights on key topics such as:
- Sleep, nutrition, and physical wellness
- Stress management and mental health
- Faith, character growth, and resilience
- Study habits and academic success strategies
- Social connections and campus involvement
How It Works: Beginning Fall 2025, students who opt into HealthyBearsTXT by texting "healthy" to 254-294-7029 will receive 2-3 weekly supportive text messages that encourage healthy behaviors. Whether through tips for better sleep before exams, reminders about free campus resources, or encouragements during stressful times, HealthyBearsTXT can help students stay on track. Plus, students who sign up will be entered for monthly give-aways!
HealthyBearsTXT is a partnership between Baylor’s Student Health & Wellness and faculty from the Department of Communication, ensuring that messages are evidence-based and tailored to the student experience.
