What is ‘Wellness’?
Today, universally the term ‘wellness’ is understood to mean:
- A conscious, positive, self-propelled process of achieving one’s full potential
- A truly multi dimensional approach covering physical, emotional, intellectual & spiritual aspects of an individual
- A holistic approach to lifestyle towards mental and spiritual well-being
- Understanding the subtle interactions of the environment on the individual
Thus, when one begins to apply the ‘wellness’ approach to one’s daily life, a whole host of possibilities open up. One gets more aware of the physical, emotional, intellectual & spiritual aspects impacting each other.
- Life gets richer, work becomes more absorbing & interesting. Efficiency improves. Helps one to achieve one’s full potential
- One gets more responsible towards the environment & society
- One begins to appreciate benefits of regular physical activity, healthy eating & self-care
- A paradigm shift from ‘disease’ to ‘health’ happens
- Improves self-esteem and self-control
- Improves creativity
A ‘wellness’ approach is necessary in nearly every human endeavour.
Worldwide, organisations are beginning to develop and implement a conscious ‘wellness’ policy.
Such a policy will help organisations to:
- Help employees and associates to achieve their full potential
- Affirm and mobilise employees’ and associates’ positive qualities and strengths
Health is not a mere absence of disease. Health is being established in the Self. Health is the dynamic expression of life
