Health means that one is in a state of physical, mental, and social well-being

Health means that one is in a state of physical, mental, and social well-being. Health
also means that one lacks disease and other injuries that could impact on their physical and
emotional wellbeing. Everyone seeks to achieve optimal health because optimal
health allows one to accomplish various goals in life. Achieving optimal health allows an
individual to focus on the prevention of illnesses as opposed to curing diseases when they
strike. Optimal health also improves the quality of life, and this ensures that one enjoys their
life.
The course has been insightful on many levels. One particular topic that I have found
interesting is the dimensions of wellness. Wellness is broad, and while people focus on
physical wellness alone, it is important to focus on emotional and spiritual wellness. One can
only achieve wellness by holistically looking at all dimensions of wellness. The course has
broadened my way of thinking, and I will apply the concepts learned in my workplace and in
my professional life.
In the workplace setup, I am involved in educating patients about how to attain
optimal health. I will ensure that I strive to ensure that they achieve optimal health and
wellness. I will work towards ensuring that patients achieve wellness in all dimensions and
not just physical wellness that is often overemphasized. One health intervention is proper
diet. The Healthy People 2020 Initiative aims at ensuring that people eat a variety of
nutritious fruits. I will work closely with clients to ensure that they identify nutritious foods
that can be helpful. I believe that no additional approach would have been helpful.
