express yourself.
Physical- Anything you do and do not do to maintain your physical
health, like eating healthy and not abusing substances.
Occupational- Finding a job that uses your talents and skills excellently.
Intellectual- Anything you do to feed your knowledge and foster your
curiosity.
Financial- Being able to live within your means.
Social- Healthy relationships with the people around you, like your
friends and family.
Environmental- Being able to be and feel safe with and in your

As a result, these eight dimensions of wellness are taken from other
interconnected dimensions of wellness (Western Governors University, n.d.-a).
