Generally, it is thought about Wellness as body well being.
In depth, this is a necessary but not a sufficient condition to feel Well. Beyond body, we have a mind and a soul, a spirit. Wellness should be thought of as the harmony in between these, and the balance of each of them individually.
Wisconsin-based National Wellness Institute: “An active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a more successful existence.”
Or, the constant, conscious pursuit of living life to its fullest potential.
Halbert L. Dunn, M.D., defined wellness as “an integrated method of functioning which is oriented toward maximizing the potential of which the individual is capable. It requires that the individual maintain a continuum of balance and purposeful direction within the environment where he is functioning.” He also stated that “wellness is a direction in progress toward an ever-higher potential of functioning”
Wellness combines health and happiness. The determinants of wellness are: better understanding of concepts like destiny, health practices, spirituality, family, environment, work, money and security, health services, social support and leisure.
I would say it is a triangle: body, mind, and spirit, which requires the Master to be home and awake, to wisely and heartily take care of it and its balance.
