Maybe the main point of the Academy Awards is to recognize the best of the best in film from the past year. But while certain winners may well have been oh-so worthy (has anything other than the music from Bohemian Rhapsody and A Star Is Born been stuck in your head for months?), a few major awards for the biggest wellness wins of the night are totally worthy of statues, too.

Lady Gaga's acceptance speech for Best Original Song was a true tearjerker. And even though Olivia Colman winning Best Actress over Glenn Close may have been a big upset, Coleman's super-inspiring acceptance speech smoothed things over. But still, how about Frances McDormand's bright yellow Birks and Melissa McCarthy's tracksuit? Movies aside, the best Oscars moments last night were the following total wellness wins.

Check out the 7 best wellness moments at the Oscars below.

1. Melissa McCarthy's tracksuit

Leave it to McCarthy to ditch the glam and rock a cozy Adidas tracksuit at an Oscars after-party. Even better? Her husband matched.

2. Jason Momoa's scrunchie

Jason Momoa: He's just like us. In the event that he needed to tie back his gorgeous long strands, he was prepared with the scrunchie on his wrist all night long—red carpet and all. Kind of like a functional corsage, right?

3. Frances McDormand's custom Birks

Heels, who? Instead, Frances McDormand presented an award in custom yellow Valentino Birkenstocks.

4. Marie Kondo's red carpet appearance

There was one person in particular who sparked joy above all else on the red carpet last night: none other than Marie Kondo.

5. Spike Lee's custom gold Jordans

Spike Lee wore a pair of shoes any sneakerhead would love snagging for their athleisure collection: a custom pair of metallic gold Jordan 3s.

6. Serena Williams introducing A Star Is Born

There was no better person to introduce a movie about going after your dreams—no matter how lofty they are—than Serena Williams.

7. Alex Honnold's custom North Face suit

Actor and rock climber Alex Honnold attended the Oscars last night for his documentary Free Solo (which won!) wearing a one-of-a-kind North Face tuxedo.
