Wellness enhances a persons level of health through development of each of the six
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
dimensions of health: physical health, intellectual health, emotional health, social health,
v v v v v v v v v v v
spiritual health, and environmental health. Exercise and eating a health variety of foods help
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
develop physical health; taking a course in general nutrition helps develop intellectual health;
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
buying locally produced food helps develop environmental health; being part of a faith-based
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
organization helps develop spiritual health; and keeping a journal helps developvemotional
v v v v v v v v v v v
health. The missing dimension in this example is development of social health; eating meals
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
with friends throughout the week would add this dimension. Growing her vownvfood would be
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
another example of environmental health; keeping a food record would bevanother contributor
v v v v v v v v v v v v
to physical health; and meeting with a registered dietitian may contribute to physical,

intellectual, and emotional health.

decrease, which can cause anxiety or confusion or make it difficult to control emotions. Late
