Wellness comprises of eight mutually co-dependent dimensions: emotional, physical, occupational, social, spiritual, intellectual, environmental, and financial. If any one of these dimensions is neglected over time, it will adversely affect one’s health, well-being, and quality of life. A well-rounded balance of these wellness dimensions provides holistic harmony to one’s personal well-being.
Just like a balanced diet is needed for healthy nutrition, balanced wellness engages the body, mind, and nurtures the spirit. This multi-dimensional wellness approach focuses on emphasizing the importance of positivity and eternal motivation for promoting healthy habits to improve one’s quality of life.

People often think about wellness in terms of physical health — nutrition, exercise, weight management, etc., but it is so much more. Wellness is a holistic integration of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, fueling the body, engaging the mind, and nurturing the spirit
What is the health and wellbeing paradigm?
Applying a wellness paradigm means prioritizing mental health alongside physical health and using diverse strategies to address the multiple factors that influence health.
