In recent years, well-being has moved from the realm of philosophy to that of science. There has been a growing body of research into what contributes to the quality of people\u2019s experiences of their lives. This has enabled a new understanding of the factors that both influence and constitute well-being.<\/p>\n<p>The science of \u2018subjective well-being\u2019 suggests that as well as experiencing good feelings, people need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a sense of individual vitality<\/li>\n<li>to undertake activities which are meaningful, engaging, and which make them feel competent and autonomous<\/li>\n<li>a stock of inner resources to help them cope when things go wrong and be resilient to changes beyond their immediate control.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is also crucial that people feel a sense of relatedness to other people, so that in addition to the personal, internally focused elements, people\u2019s social experiences \u2013 the degree to which they have supportive relationships and a sense of connection with others \u2013 form a vital aspect of well-being.<\/p>\n<p>Defining well-being is complex, but lets see what few interesting ones &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe must turn to nature itself to the observations of the body in health &amp; in disease to learn the truth\u201d\u00a0 &#8230;..\u00a0<strong>Hippocrates<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Doctor of the future will give NO medicine but will interest his patient in the care of human frame, in diet &amp; in the cause &amp; prevention of disease\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0 &#8230;..\u00a0 \u00a0<strong>Thomas Edison\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHealth is a state of complete physical, mental &amp; social Wellbeing &amp; not merely absence of disease &amp; infirmity\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0&#8230;..\u00a0 <strong>World Health Organization<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHealth is not only to be well but to use well every power we have\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0 &#8230;\u00a0 \u00a0<strong>Florence Nightingale<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While academic debate continues about precisely how \u2018well-being\u2019 should be defined, for our purposes it is not essential to address all of its finer points. All of the elements cited above play a role in ensuring that people feel their lives are going well, although their importance may vary as circumstances change.<\/p>\n<p>Well-being is most usefully thought of as the dynamic process that gives people a sense of how their lives are going, through the interaction between their circumstances, activities and psychological resources or \u2018mental capital\u2019.

As well as representing a highly effective way of bringing about good outcomes in many different areas our lives, there is also a strong case for regarding well-being as an ultimate goal of human endeavour.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Simple ONLINE 24&#215;7 Support Tools &#8211;<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Discover activities, experiences, workshops, pop-ups suited to your interests and passions @<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellnessway4u.com\/event-listing.php\">Good Life<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Your Sensitivity Meter &#8211; reconnecting with human &amp; social values\u00a0 @<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessway4u.com\/design-my-life.php?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Re-Design My Life<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Overcome Challenges in a cool way @ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellnessway4u.com\/my_day_today.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Guide2Success<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Avail 24&#215;7 Text Consultation with your Coach, Counsellor<\/strong><\/span> @\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellnessway4u.com\/refer_a_adviser.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">My Coach<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>BE POSITIVE BE SUCCESSFUL<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Need more info on wellness, energy &amp; productivity related issues, kindly write to us at <a href=\"mailto:info@wellnessway4u.com\">info@wellnessway4u.com<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Stay Healthy, Be Happy<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well-being as we all know &amp; experience is key to our happiness &amp; Success.
