What Is Wellness?


well·ness  (noun)

1.  The quality or state of being healthy in body and mind, especially as the result of deliberate effort.

2.  An approach to healthcare that emphasizes preventing illness and prolonging life, as opposed to emphasizing treating diseases.


Wellness: 
An active, lifelong process of educating ourselves and making choices that will lead to better health.

Is about embracing a way of life; an individual lifestyle based on one's own abilities, interests and habits.

Encompasses choices about our lives, our work, our families and our priorities that influence our lifestyles.

Is about our physical, emotional, spiritual, and nutritional well being not just about diet and exercise.
