Wednesday, November 13, 2024
10 - 11 a.m.

Well-being has been and continues to be a hot topic of conversation in many corners of academia and corporate America. It’s also an issue of great concern for individuals - particularly caregivers. So, what’s it all about?

Quite simply, well-being is a self-reported state of being well which entails more than physical health. It’s a sense of foundational wholeness that includes the mind, the body, and the spirit. If we have a sense of overall wellness, we feel good and function well.

Therefore, being well is essential if we are to care well - for others and ourselves. Join us to explore the path to an enhanced sense of well-being.
