What is wellness?

Wellness is the state of optimum well-being and working toward it can maximize a person’s potential. Maintaining personal wellness is a continual process throughout life and takes each aspect of an individual’s mental and physical health into account such as physical, social, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and environmental well-being. When one of these areas is lacking it can affect all the other facets of life. By working on wellness each day and learning about each aspect and how to fuel it, people can lead healthy, happy lives. The clinic can work with patients to help establish wellness habits which can be integrated into their daily lives. Even small changes can impact an individual’s health and happiness greatly including using stress management tools and taking a few moments to be active every day.
