The key tenets of wellness as both preventive and holistic, can be traced back to ancient civilizations from the East (India, China) to the West (Greece, Rome). In 19th-century Europe and the United States, a variety of intellectual, religious, and medical movements developed in parallel with conventional medicine. With their focus on holistic and natural approaches, self-healing, and preventive care, these movements have provided a firm foundation for wellness today.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/what-is-wellness\/history-of-wellness\/\">Global<\/a> Wellness Institute, 5\/25\/2025).<\/p><p>Wellness-focused and holistic modalities have gained more visibility since the 1960s and 1970s under the writings and thought leadership of an informal network of U.S. physicians and thinkers (such as Halbert Dunn, Jack Travis, Don Ardell, Bill Hettler, and others). As these teachings have evolved, proliferated, and gone mainstream, they have informed the healthy-living, self-help, self-care, fitness, nutrition, diet and spiritual practices that have become a flourishing wellness movement in the 21st century (<a href=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/what-is-wellness\/history-of-wellness\/\">Global<\/a> Wellness Institute,5\/25\/2025).<\/p><p>To help understand wellness, a wheel was created for a visual impact and a tool for self-exploration. The wheel is designed to be multidimensional, focusing on several dimensions that can help you achieve balance.<\/p><p>The wellness wheel components\/dimensions may vary. Depending on who created them and the constructs that they measure, you can find wellness wheels with six, seven, or eight dimensions. For example, intellectual and occupational wellness might be grouped together on one wheel, but appear as separate components on another wheel.<\/p><p>Dr. Bill <a href=\"https:\/\/members.nationalwellness.org\/page\/Six_Dimensions\">Hettler<\/a>, co-founder of the National Wellness Institute, outlined six dimensions of wellness as markers to help individuals accomplish a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle and live a life of value and meaning. Dr. Peggy Swarbrick developed a strength-based, eight-dimension wellness model to promote recovery from mental health and substance use.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8063f9b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8063f9b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The concept of the wellness wheel remains the same: integrate all dimensions into your life.<\/p><p>Typical dimensions\/components of the wellness wheel include:<\/p><ul><li>Physical<\/li><li>Emotional\/Mental<\/li><li>Spiritual<\/li><li>Environmental<\/li><li>Social<\/li><li>Financial<\/li><li>Occupational<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7656d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b7656d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/uwyoextension.org\/uwnutrition\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Age_Saras-Article.png\" class=\"attachment-1536x1536 size-1536x1536 wp-image-23197\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uwyoextension.org\/uwnutrition\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Age_Saras-Article.png 1200w, https:\/\/uwyoextension.org\/uwnutrition\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Age_Saras-Article-768x230.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e180075 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e180075\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Other key points regarding the wellness wheel, from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwyo.edu\/rec\/wellness-center\/wellness-wheel.html\">UW Wellness Center<\/a>, include:<\/p><ul><li>Strive for improvement, not perfection.<\/li><li>We don&#8217;t excel in all areas at the same time.<\/li><li>Focus on making progress in areas that need improvement.<\/li><li>Wellness is fluid and changes.

Only you have the power to create wellness for yourself.<\/p><p>Using a wellness wheel, evaluate your own life in all dimensions, and identify what you are doing well and what areas you could improve on. From there, make some small goals. Wellness is a journey, and it takes time to develop a lifestyle with healthy habits.\u00a0<\/p><p>Well-being is the result of your wellness actions. If you feel good, physically, mentally, and socially, and are balanced on your wellness components, it leads to an overall feeling of happiness and fulfillment, and well-being.<\/p><p>Moving forward, when you think about\u00a0wellness, think prevention and health.
