Graduate of Health and Wellness Promotion

I define "health" and "wellness" a lot differently now than I did when I began this program.  I used to view health and wellness as interchangeable, finite terms. Now I see these concepts as interconnected components that are influenced by values, beliefs, environment, life experiences, and social connections.  I think it is more valuable to understand how one can influence their experience of health and wellness in their day-to-day life than to be limited by any definition expressing absolutes.
