Personal wellness is important especially when it comes to living our lives to the fullest and Young Living has made a positive impact in making this a reality. Below is the definition of wellness along with the 8 areas which are vital in living. If you feel that any of these areas are out of sync, please contact us and we'd love to share how Young Living can make a difference.

Wellness involves being aware of ourselves as whole people, including a sense of balance and contentment. It is the feeling that things are going well for us today, and can continue to go well for us tomorrow.

Wellness incorporates all of the eight areas below and they’re all inter-connected:

• Emotional
  • Being emotionally well means that you have high self-esteem, a strong sense of self, and you are able to cope effectively with the events of your life. You are in tune with your feelings and are able to express them in a constructive way.
• Environmental
  • Being environmentally well means that you find your surroundings to be pleasant. You are able to create home, work, and play environments that make you feel creative, safe, and inspired.
• Financial
  • Being financially well means that you are satisfied with your current financial situation and are pleased with the steps you have taken to plan for your financial future.
• Intellectual
  • Being intellectually well means that you feel you are using your knowledge and creativity to their fullest potential. You think critically, you are open to new ideas, and you seek out ways to expand your knowledge, learn new skills, and utilize your creativity.
• Occupational
  • Being occupationally well means that you are satisfied with your work and feel that it is enriching your life (If you are a student, this means your major, classes, homework, etc.). You find your work interesting, enjoyable, and meaningful.
• Physical
  • Being physically well means that you care for your body through healthy eating, physical activity, proper hygiene, and sleep.
• Social
  • Being socially well means that you are able to build healthy relationships. You have established a strong support system and feel a sense of connection and belonging with the people you interact with.
• Spiritual
  • Being spiritually well means that you find purpose and meaning in your existence, as well as the existence of all humankind. You spend time reflecting on and appreciating your life and purpose, whether this is through religion, meditation, yoga, journaling, spending time in nature, enjoying the arts or any other activities that you find meaningful. Your actions reflect your personal beliefs and values, and you feel calm and at peace with who you are.
