Emotional wellness is the ability to understand, recognize, share, experience, and manage our full range of feelings. It involves adopting a positive outlook in life and engaging in self-exploration. In addition, it includes developing ways to cope with stress and challenges, and seeking out support from others when needed. Everyone’s optimal wellness will be different, depending on your own needs, experiences, personality, and circumstances.
There are many areas of wellness including, emotional, spiritual, financial, career, academic, environmental, social or cultural. Wellness is an active, lifelong process of becoming aware of your choices and making decisions that will help you to live a more balanced and fulfilling life.
