Today, we are focused on wellness: preventing illness, keeping people healthy, and improving the quality of life.
However, our emotional well-being is often overlooked.
Emotional wellness refers to an awareness, understanding and acceptance of our feelings and our ability to manage effectively through challenges and change.
Consider the following:
• The United States spends more money to treat mental disorders
than any other disease or medical condition.
• Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health
• Depression is now the leading cause of
illness and disability worldwide.
The National Center for Emotional Wellness is committed to fostering emotional wellness by providing timely information, guidance, practical strategies and support for organizations, corporations, and health care professionals.
