- The Global Wellness Institute defines wellness as the active pursuit of activities, choices and lifestyles that lead to a state of holistic health.
-  wellness is linked to holistic health, it extends beyond physical health and incorporates many different dimensions that should work in harmony.
- wellness is not a passive or static state but rather an “active pursuit” that is associated with intentions, choices and actions as we work toward an optimal state of health and wellbeing. 
- That is correct. Also, wellness is an individual pursuit—we have self-responsibility for our own choices, behaviors and lifestyles—but it is also significantly influenced by the physical, social and cultural environments in which we live.

- There are a number of dimensions of health that could be listed out, but there are 3 primary ones that most people reference when discussing health.These include:Physical healthMental healthEmotional health
- In the past, good health was defined as the absence of disease or infirmity, though the definition of health has been expanded to include a healthy mental state, as well.
- To improve your physical health, you might work with a doctor or other healthcare practitioner to identify illness or other issues.
- You could take exquisite care of your body, but if you haven’t addressed any mental blocks, mindset hangups, or past traumas, you might not be successful at overall well-being in the long run.
- Your emotions are part of your mental health, but they are a specific aspect of mental health to pay attention to. Just because you’ve resolved childhood traumas or poor mental patterns, it doesn’t mean that you’ve become emotionally intelligent.
- Well, that right there is the end of this session. Stay healthy!
