Conclusion:

Physical, Emotional, Creative, Environmental, Financial, Occupational, Intellectual, Social, and Spiritual. Everyday activities that might not at first seem related to wellness can help us develop, thrive, succeed, enjoy life, and deal constructively with life challenges.  For example, by seeking out artistic activities and cultural experiences, we’re enhancing our Creative Wellness.  When we learn new transferable skills or take strides in our career, our Occupational Wellness is increasing. Wellness in each dimension looks like in everyday college life.  It’s natural at different times to focus on some dimensions of wellness over others, and balancing the Nine Dimensions in our own lives is an ongoing process.  We hope the resources provided here for each dimension will help you begin, or continue, a purposeful effort to grow in the dimensions that are most meaningful to you.
