When it comes to your health, wellness, and wellbeing, there are 4 distinct areas that it’s made of.

· Physical health

· Mental health

· Emotional health

· Spiritual health

When any one of these elements is unbalanced — all suffer. Maybe not a lot, and maybe not obviously. Yet health, wellness, and wellbeing is a total package.

Many people hear or read the words “holistic health” and automatically default to the hooky-spooky, new-agey, homeopathic notions. And while they are tied to this — that’s not what holistic health is.

Holistic health is recognition of the interconnectedness of all four of the above areas of health, wellness, and wellbeing.

Doctors, therapists, nutritionists, and even philosophers can all help you with your overall health. But while they help, and even provide necessities for your wellness and wellbeing — everything related to this begins with the self.

It’s all within you.

The reality of wellbeing
