How does health and wellness work?

Like an iceberg, only a small part of
your total wellness is visible: Your
current state of health.

Just as important are hidden

dimensions, including lifestyle, habits,
cultural and psychological factors, and
the realm of spiritual meaning and
being. (Dr. John Travis, 2004)

Stop, Think & Reflect!

One of the best way to understand if an

individual is healthy is through
understanding his/her Psychological Health
Unpacking The Self: Introduction

Psychological Health
It is the sum of how we think, feel,
relate and exist in our day-to-day lives.

Our thoughts, perceptions, emotions,

motivations, interpersonal relationships,
and behaviors are a product of our
experiences and the learnings we have
developed to meet life’s challenges.
