Wellness For-Every-One: How to Create Optimal Health, Happiness and Longevity for the 21st Century (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781585005734)

Wellness For Every One: How to create optimal health, happiness, and longevity for the 21st century, is a concept of synergy. The synergy of wellness can also be described as your whole life. As other books concentrate on specific areas of wellness, this book reveals the eight wellness areas that need to be addressed when learning about this subject. The author has presented a simple and balanced approach by creating a working model which allows the reader to see wellness, to remember what it is, and to understand how each wellness area supports the other parts.

From the beginning, the author places the responsibility of achieving a high level of wellness on the reader. However, his words do not make the reader feel as if wellness is a chore. He empowers the reader by repeatedly suggesting the main point is to expand your wellness wheel, to help it grow larger and larger, and not smaller and smaller. He also provides four 'tools' we can use throughout life when making wellness choices. The primary tool he presents throughout the book is to use your intuition--your inner awareness.

Mr. Dennis describes the eight major wellness areas, which he emphasizes there is no one area that is more important than another, as they all equally play a synergistic role in wellness. The eight areas are: Body/Mind, Career, Family/Friends, Fitness, Leisure, Nutrition, Sleep, and Spirituality. There are individual chapters on all of these areas which provide safe, sound, and powerfully effective suggestions to expand each area. These eight areas are followed by chapters on how to make lasting wellness changes, finding the time for wellness, and discovering a way to have wellness forever.

The author has achieved his intention of creating a model that can be applied equally to everyone--forever, as wellness is never-ending. One of the underlying themes is that we are all perfect exactly how we are right now, and yet we can choose to expand

our wellness circle to experience greater health, happiness, and longevity. Inside you will discover how to:

Achieve regular sound sleep without drugs
Eat and drink your way to wellness
Live in a state of happiness
Have fun without guilt
Find your bliss career
Give love freely to your family and friends
Be fit without pain
Let your body and mind work together for optimal health

Wellness For Every One is a fun book to read, as the author interjects humorous comments throughout. It is fast reading which is not bogged down with tons of examples or medical terms. James Dennis is an Occupational Therapist, and pulls from his personal experiences while making reference to many authors throughout the book, in order to learn more about specific wellness topics.

Whether you are new to wellness, or even if you are an experienced veteran, you will come away with a smile and a feeling of confidence after reading this book.
