You know what wellness feels like—it’s not just physical health. There are a lot of factors that can affect your quality of life beside the flu. At Cheyenne Radiology, we practice compassionate care because we know that you’re more than just your biology.

Developed in the 1970s by Dr. Bill Hettler, the Six Dimensions of Wellness model is a simple way of describing the different factors that all influence your health and wellness.

	Emotional Wellness	Pursuing individual happiness Being aware of and accepting your feelings
	Physical Wellness	Avoiding illness Paying attention to diet and exercise
	Spiritual Wellness	Finding meaning and purpose in your life
	Occupational Wellness	Finding satisfaction in work Maintaining financial stability
	Social Wellness	Positive interactions with others
	Intellectual Wellness	Keeping your mind active and stimulated

If you’ve been feeling off lately and you’re not sure why, take a minute to create a couple lists:

• What am I doing for myself in each dimension of wellness?
• What can I do in my daily life to improve in the neglected areas?

If one of your To Dos is stay on top of your annual screenings, talk to your doctor and ask for a referral to the Cheyenne Women’s Imaging Pavilion.
