First, a holistic approach to personal wellness\/healing by identifying some factors causing brokenness, imbalance, and disharmony and then by considering proactive remedies for the identified obstacles: wellness in physical dimension; wellness in psychological dimension; wellness in spiritual dimension. Second, a psycho-spiritual approach to integration and personal transformation toward True Self: *Self-knowledge by understanding personality types according to the Enneagram; *Self-realization by inner works of personal and spiritual transformation; *Self-transcendence by integrating the Enneagram's wisdom and Christian spirituality from the distorted ways of thinking, feeling, and doing (willing). Third, a better way toward spiritual maturity that is rooted in our radical trust in God--not trusting in human resources and our abilities-- will manifest all the fullness of faith, hope and love; *\"Work of faith\" by following Jesus Christ through spiritual discipleship; *\"Steadfastness of hope\" of anticipating the human's hopeful redemption through the in-breaking of the Kingdom of God; *\"Labor of love' of doing justice and compassionate provision for those who are poor and in need. Fourth, a better place for \"making people whole\" is the Church--the body of Christ where hurting or lost souls are cared and\/or cured and where believers are called to become compassionate disciples who are equipped with different spiritual gifts. They are: *Soul-caring a soul-curing; *Providing one another with love, acceptance, and forgiveness; *Witnessing our \"Christ-likeness\" manifested in our daily living, so that the world will know and believe the God of Creation, Redemption, and Sustenance; *Encouraging one another in our spiritual journeys together toward spiritual maturity. AN ACRONYM FOR W.H.O.L.E.N.E.S.S is: Work of faith; Healing (wellness); Opening our souls to God's presence; Labor of love; Ego-transcendent living; Nurturing discipleship; Encouraging sojourners toward spiritual maturity; Steadfastness of hope; Servant ministry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hakyung Cho-Kim Ph.
