DIMENSIONS OF WELLNESS

While the definition of wellness continues to expand and evolve, The International Council on Active Aging (ICAA) defines it as follows:

Wellness is derived from our ability to understand, accept and act upon our capacity to lead a purpose-filled and engaged life. In doing so, we can embrace our potential (physical, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, social, environmental, vocational) to pursue and optimize life’s possibilities.
