Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about wellness. I find that it’s a buzzword mentioned in all sorts of health articles, magazines, podcasts, products, marketing, you name it! Especially with the increasing interest in health over the recent years, wellness is talked about more than ever. While the word itself is non-uniquely and usually associated with health and health-related topics, the meaning of wellness is unique to everyone. If we were to lit·er·al·ly define wellness, it could be said that it’s the active/conscious process of choosing life and lifestyle choices that overall fulfill and improve one’s health (emotionally, spiritually and physically). Alternatively, if we were to ask what wellness means to you as an individual, we’d be able to capture a variety of answers.
Why should we care about wellness? Well, a person’s level of wellness affects everything in their life. Wellness is directly related to health, stress, mentality, emotions and so on, so if any one of these components are out of balance, it affects your well-being. By achieving optimal levels of wellness in your life, what subsequently increases will be your energy, productivity, gratitude and health. The journey to maintaining and acquiring wellness is a cycle!
