Great discussion so far- enjoyed reading your posts

Environmental health- promotes human health and well-being, and fosters healthy and safe communities. An example of this is -Being respectful, inclusive, kind and supportive to others.

Environmental wellness is having good health by occupying pleasant, stimulating environments that support well-being. It promotes interaction with nature and also creating an enjoyable personal environment.

Re: 8 Dimensions of Wellness

I skipped a bit. What are we up to. Looks like financial. Interesting that the sequence goes physical>occupational>financial. Has a sort of linear sense to it. I'm feeling a bit of a Maslow's hierarchy moving in a circle. Maybe it should move in a circle rather than be set in a pyramid.

You know what this is making me think about. General Eisenhower and the Eisenhower urgent vs important matrix. To paraphrase, important things aren't very urgent and urgent things aren't very important. Whether you're talking about the financial or other foms of wealth I think that's an important reminder in our often urgent world. Just a little bit weird taking zen wisdom from a general but it works.

Oops. I thought we were doing one per day. Sorry for rushing.

Wow. I love a good TED talk and this one's going really well. Guy reminds me of James Cordon, who I also like. Kind of confronting, as an avoidant personality person but in a good way because, lone-wolf as I can be, I still revel in tribal learning and wouldn't be the outsider I am without it.

I must say I am only learning here too

What is physical wellness?
Before improving your physical wellness, it’s important to understand exactly what it is. Physical wellness has to do with keeping your body in optimal condition and health. It can be achieved through a well-balanced diet, various forms of exercise, practicing self-control, and much more.

Why is physical wellness important?
Physical wellness is important for many reasons. First off, it allows you to maintain your body over time.

By eating a well balanced diet and performing routine exercise, you can significantly improve your overall health and physical wellness.
Another reason physical wellness is important is it keeps your organs in check. Your body is incredible but needs to be maintained over time.

Keeping both your internal and external organs in peak condition is critical for a long, healthy life!
Lastly, physical wellness is important to maintain your energy levels.

Just like your cell phone needs a charged battery to work, your body needs adequate energy levels to optimize it’s performance! Taking care of your body and getting adequate sleep are two great ways to recharge.

In the end, it’s very important to take care of your body over time. You only have one and, in most cases, it can be well preserved by making healthy lifestyle choices. Doing so will help you age gracefully and maximize your physical wellness.

Re: 8 Dimensions of Wellness

walking is probably the most basic thing to do, it's way better than not walking. Also stretching. If i stop either, can notice the difference not long after
