What is wellness? Researchers have examined the concept of wellness in relation to spiritual, physical, and psychological health. For the most part, it requires examining each to achieve a reasonable definition. The certified professional must assess the factors that impact the physical, mental, spiritual, and social well-being of an individual. For example, a comprehensive examination from your physician entails all four components. Wellness is not perfect health. It is the soundness of mind, healthy perception of the world, and reasonable physical health based on the examination of a certified professional in the field of medicine and health.
