Creating a robust wellness program that focuses on all aspects of wellbeing can have a positive impact on an organization's corporate image, energy consumption, and productivity.

The eight dimensions of wellness include: emotional, physical, intellectual, financial, spiritual, occupational, social, and environmental. Minna B. Consulting, a mental health consulting practice, argues that each dimension of well-being serves as a useful benchmark for setting effective boundaries, which in turn can protect our mental health for challenging years like 2020.
