Wellness at WSU

The seven dimensions of wellness and their concepts, as a framework, emphasize wellness in a multi-dimensional way in order to meet the needs of multi-dimensional learners.

Intellectual

Intellectual wellness encourages creativity and stimulating mental activity, which, keeps us better fit for the world. Being a life long learner, getting the most out of classes and education by asking questions, being open to new ideas, learning new skills and studying effectively helps to keep us attuned to the world around us.

Spiritual

Spiritual wellness includes having a set of guiding beliefs, principles, or values that give meaning and purpose to life and is an important part of one's character. Possessing the capacity to love, have compassion for others and leading a life that is in harmony with oneself and others helps you to live a better life as well as improving the lives of those around you.
