Well-being includes people’s mental, physical, and social health, and the opportunities they have to create meaningful futures. It considers basic needs like food, housing, education, employment, and income. It includes social and emotional needs like sense of purpose, safety, belonging and social connection, and life satisfaction.
At our Counselling Center, we enroll people for this workshop on Individual well being which is conducted on demand. This is the only program which we feel is important for people to join to achieve wholesome life. It’s an awareness program in which the participants are made aware of the three pillars of their life and how to create meaningfulness in their life for a healthy life.
It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps to determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices
A state of physical well-being is not just the absence of disease. It includes lifestyle behavior choices to ensure health, avoid preventable diseases and conditions, and to live in a balanced state of body, mind, and spirit.
Social well-being is when we have good relationships, social stability, and peace. People are social creatures who are mutually dependent, relying on others for our well-being, just as they rely on us. To be well, people need to love and to be loved.
Individual well-being is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood till Old Age.

For instance, research has found that people with high psychological well-being are less likely to engage in Anti-Social behavior or drugs and alcohol abuse.
Physical activity and exercise can have immediate and long-term health benefits. Most importantly, regular activity can improve your quality of life.
