Ignite success by nurturing your eight dimensions of wellbeing

You know that success means more than a great bottom line or bank balance. It's about living your best life and realising your dreams and goals. Prioritising wellbeing is a conscious and deliberate decision to make.

Can you imagine a life where you have purpose, satisfying work and play, joyful relationships, a healthy body and mind and financial confidence? 

 

This is what prioritising your wellbeing can bring to your business and life. How can you make this a reality and where will you start?

Dr Peggy Swarbrick’s research (2012) on the eight (8) dimensions of wellbeing can be your roadmap. By understanding these dimensions, you can uncover what you truly value, identify your strengths, and pinpoint the areas for growth.


Prioritising your wellbeing isn’t just a personal journey – it can be a financial or business strategy. Investing in your wellbeing directly impacts your success. Think improved productivity, reduced stress levels, improved relationships with your family, friends and team, and better overall performance are just some of the benefits.

Aim for progress not perfection. The journey to wellness will help you create patterns of thinking, feeling and doing to restore a sense of wellness. Planning to do just a single activity each day will make it more likely that you will complete it. Remember that you won't always have the energy to take the actions that you planned. Some days will  be easier than others. Focus on the action you did take and will take. Remind yourself that tomorrow is a new day. 

Physical

The Physical Wellness Dimension involves things that keep us active and healthy. Our physical wellbeing is  important to our mental health, longevity and ensuring we live our best lives. This means building good physical health habits, having a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and having the appropriate health care for our needs.

Intellectual

The Intellectual Wellness Dimension involves things that keep our brains active and our intellect expanding. It’s about mastering new skills, learning new things or helping to educate others. Having the time and resources to keep your mind active and supporting your loved ones can help you live a long life.

Spiritual

The Spiritual Wellness Dimension is a broad concept that represents one’s personal beliefs and values and involves having meaning, purpose, and a sense of balance and peace. It includes being able to volunteer your time to support causes that mean something to you and help others to live a more purposeful life.

Emotional

The Emotional Wellness Dimension involves the ability to express feelings, adjust to emotional challenges, cope with life’s stressors, and enjoy life. It includes building and nurturing relationships to strengthen our support networks and ensure we have the resources to spend time and money on those we love the things we enjoy.

Financial

Social
