Wellness is a lifelong journey toward optimal health. It is like a bicycle, as it is hard to learn at first.
Wellness consists of six dimensions: physical, intellectual, occupational, emotional, social and spiritual. These six dimensions complement and interact with each other.
According to Cmich.edu, when talking about wellness people often refer to a "wellness wheel", like a bike wheel, if all of the spokes or dimensions are functioning at optimal levels, the wheel rolls along smoothly. If, however, one of the spokes or dimensions becomes weak or if the tire loses air, the wheel will run off course.
Most of us hear the term wellness and assume that it’s something beyond our reach. Or perhaps we think that wellness is only for advanced yogis, holistic doctors, or wellness practitioners, but not us — not everyday people just working the daily grind and living busy lives.
