Prioritizing wellness for me entails not just surviving but thriving in various aspects of life—mental, physical, and social. It involves establishing healthy habits that contribute to stress relief and rejuvenation, recognizing that well-being encompasses not only the physical but also the mental, emotional, social, and spiritual dimensions.
Among these dimensions, I find the emotional aspect particularly compelling. Enhancing emotional well-being can significantly impact one's lifestyle, encompassing stress management, fostering positive social connections, and addressing both physical and mental health. Mindful choices in nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress management, and relationship development all play a role in cultivating overall wellness.
While I believe I've successfully maintained a robust and healthy mindset, the challenges of juggling school, extracurricular activities, and work…

It entails techniques like stress management, introspection, and mindfulness.…

Cultivating wellness is the application of oneself in self evaluation, realizing one's faults and thus correcting them. But not through elimination, but rather cultivation. To cultivate a better understanding of one's own faults and negative tendancies, and accepting them as a part of a whole, not something that can be cut off. To subdue and control these bad impulses and urges in the name of self improvement. As someone with OCD myself, both positive and negative impulses affect my life and hinder aspects of my wellbeing, but I have learned myself to accept them as a part of me. Desires for things being a certain way being the utmost importance. Though some are very beneficial and…
