According to social sciences, there are eight dimensions to wellness: emotional, physical, occupational, social, spiritual, intellectual, environmental and financial. If any one of these is unbalanced or neglected, over time it will have a negative impact on physical and mental health.
Emotional wellness
Emotional well-being is the ability to effectively manage and understand one's emotions. It also involves successfully handling life’s stresses and adapting to change and difficult times.
Physical wellness
Physical well-being includes all areas of health that relate to physical aspects of the body including, nutrition, exercise, weight management, ergonomics, tobacco use, disease, disease prevention, and more.
Occupational wellness
Occupational well-being is connected with personal satisfaction with one's professional life (job/career, work-life balance).
Social wellness
Social well-being is all abut interactions with other people - connections, relationships, and personal expression.
Spiritual wellness
Spiritual well-being is connected to the search for purpose and meaning in life. This may include the belief in a higher power, but does not necessarily have to be aligned with a religion.
Intellectual wellness
Intellectual well-being is connected to brain health and growth via thought-provoking mental activities.
Environmental wellness
