What is wellness?
Wellness is the act of practicing healthy habits on a daily basis to attain better physical and mental health outcomes, so that instead of just surviving, you're thriving.
The Importance of Wellness in the Workplace
Emotional Wellness
Emotion: No one likes to talk about this one especially in the workplace, but according to legal scholars Susan Bandes and Jessica Salerno:
“Emotion helps us screen, organize and prioritize the information that bombards us,” and “It influences what information we find salient, relevant, convincing or memorable.”
Without emotions we can not express ourselves nor can we recognize what others are feeling if we can’t “understand” what they are feeling.
Creating Balance
The need to stabilize our emotions or
regulate our emotions is critical to healthy
relationship dynamics. To create a healthy
dynamic at work, employees need to feel
safe and heard.
