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