Wellbeing is key to a healthy, fulfilling, and balanced life. Unfortunately, the stresses and demands of our busy, fast-paced, modern lifestyles can often distract from self-care.
But research shows that a lack of wellbeing can indicate declining health for an entire community. That is why leading lifestyle and wellness companies, such as QNET, support World Wellbeing Week (June 26 – 30) by bringing attention to the importance of self-care and its global impact.
What Is Wellbeing?
Good health is much more than just the absence of illness. It encompasses all aspects of an individual’s life, including physical, emotional, economic, and social status.
Health experts use the term wellbeing to describe this complex set of factors contributing to a person’s overall happiness and satisfaction.
These factors are deeply interconnected, and their impact varies from one individual to another. Researchers have discovered that people who report higher levels of wellbeing are less likely to suffer disease, illness, or injury.
They also have more robust immune systems and recover from illness faster. Research also indicates that greater levels of wellbeing in a community have been linked to positive public health indicators that affect society as a whole, such as increased healthier behaviours like exercising and eating
