Five Aspects of Wellness

Gallup Research has re-defined wellness in a holistic way, and encourages companies to encourage all five identified aspects of wellness in employee wellness programs. These aspects are:

1. Purpose: liking what you do each day and being motivated to achieve your goals
2. Social: having supportive relationships and love in your life
3. Financial: managing your economic life to reduce stress and increase security
4. Community: liking where you live, feeling safe, and having pride in your community
5. Physical: having good health and enough energy to get things done daily.
