8 Dimensions of Wellness
Wellness involves being aware of ourselves as whole people, including a sense of balance and contentment. It is the feeling that things are going well for us today and can continue to go well for us tomorrow. It is the belief that we have meaningful relationships and a sense of meaning and purpose.
