Health and wellness is made up of a lot more than just your physical condition. Your physical body is important and it is when this part starts breaking down that you might contact a chiropractor for treatment, but it’s just one piece of the puzzle.

Emotional wellness is another element that can directly contribute to your physical well-being. If you've been through emotional traumas and haven’t dealt with them along the way, they tend to manifest in other areas of life that affect your overall health. It’s always best to express your emotions freely and manage them so you’re not hurting anyone else in the process.

Maintaining strong social bonds with family and friends is another way to strengthen your health. Study after study shows the importance of having strong social connections when it comes to your health. The most important relationship you’ll have is with yourself, but a sense of community and sharing with others is also a critical element.

Enjoying what you do in life is another important aspect of your overall health and wellness. So many people feel like they are trapped in professions they don’t find rewarding or that actually drain them physically and mentally. It’s almost impossible to be happy and healthy when you dread going to work five days per week.
