What Is Wellness?
Dr. Barry Lieberman, D.C.

The word "wellness" has no universally accepted definition. Personally, I like the following definition:

WELLNESS: "An intentional choice of a lifestyle characterized by personal responsibility, moderation, and maximum personal enhancement of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health."

Is this definition different than what you thought? Most people view wellness as a destination, or as a noun—a thing. In reality wellness is a verb. It is an action.

The key phrase here is "intentional choice." It is an active process where one determines to make better choices in their day-to-day activities.

"Wellness" is all the action you take to improve yourself everyday. When a smoker quits smoking, it is an action of wellness. When you start exercising it is an action of wellness. When you continue to exercise it is wellness. When you eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid the typical snack and fast foods, it is wellness. Wellness is something you do. Each and every day we can make better decisions, intentional choices in our best interests, and include the benefits of more wellness in our lives.

How do you start this process? Well, to go anywhere you must know where you are coming from, and to where you are going. To start a wellness program, go get a full evaluation of your current wellness status from your wellness doctor. That's right, your wellness doctor will be checking how far you are from your peak potential, but not how close you are to disease. So, of course, you should also be checked by your regular doctor for any signs of disease or illness. After all, you do have to know where you are starting from. Then, work with your wellness care professional to set goals from where you are, to where you want to be, and how you will get there!

What? You don't have a wellness doctor? I think everyone should have at least two doctors; a wellness doctor and a sickness/injury doctor: one keeps you well, and helps you build your wellness, the other helps a person recover if injury or illness overwhelms them. Your wellness doctor will help you identify what positive actions you need to take, to build greater wellness and reach your goals.

Implement these wellness actions consistently and persistently! As your wellbeing improves with your wellness actions, you will arrive where you want to be, and the journey will be part of the fun!

So remember, wellness is an activity, not a destination. Practice wellness every day!    Dr. Barry J. Lieberman, D.C.  Your Wellness Doctor
