Maintaining physical, mental and spiritual health while in seminary is an important discipline to keep. VTS makes every effort to aid students in their wellness practices. The food in the Refectory allows ample choices so students can maintain healthy diets. The Mollegen Gym is open for several hours a day and has a half court gym and an exercise room with updated equipment to use for aerobic and strengthening exercise. Tennis courts are available to students as well. Informal team sports are organized by students annually. Football, soccer, softball and basketball are mainstays during the academic year, with teams often traveling to weekend tournaments with other seminaries. Though the school does not have a pool, the Chinquapin Recreation Center (about a mile from the Seminary) does have one, and welcomes Alexandria residents for a minimal charge.

Northern Virginia and Washington DC offer excellent services for counseling for individuals, families and children. In addition, those in recovery from addiction easily find support and resources nearby.

In addition to daily worship, VTS offers a program of Spiritual Direction to students and their spouses or partners. The seminary Community also has two Quiet Days scheduled in the year for silence and meditation. No classes are held on those days and schoolwork is suspended.
