There are 8 dimensions of wellness:
1.Emotional 2. Spiritual 3. Intellectual 4. Physical 5. Environmental 6. Financial 7. Occupational 8. Social One idea about the 8 dimensions of wellness is if you can change your habits, you can change the quality of your life. Today we will focus on occupational wellness. Occupational wellness is the ability to find a balance between work (school) and leisure time (free time.) It involves knowing how to manage our stress and getting along with our co-workers or fellow classmates. Some ideas: 1. Find the positive. Try not to let the bad parts of your day impact your entire day at school. Every school and class has its challenges, so try to focus on the things you do well and what you can do to make your experience better. 2. Plan for the future. Remember your long term goals while you get through your day. Graduating from high school, choosing a good job, college, university-- have an idea of your long game to help be successful in the short game. 3. Know to ask for help. Reach out to friends that are supportive, ask your teachers for help when you are confused, find other adults (like me!!) who can help you navigate the rough spots.
