Welcome to Wellness Programs at SU! Wellness is the condition of good physical and mental health, especially when maintained by proper diet, exercise, and habits. Wellness can mean many things to many people. We know it is an important part of work and life, yet because of it's many components and the diverse nature of our campus community, it is difficult to construct one definition of wellness that applies to all.

Using a wellness approach, this site is designed to cover six wellness dimensions: Physical, Intellectual, Spiritual, Occupational, Emotional, and Social. We want to offer students, faculty, staff and members of the Salisbury community information and resources to create and maintain a healthy approach to life. Click on any area of the wheel to learn more and get updates on events happening on campus and the surround areas.

Wellness Dimensions:

Occupational - Involved in preparing for work in which one will gain personal satisfaction and enrichment through work.
Emotional - taking care of yourself so that you are more prepared to deal with life's stresses.
Physical - Ability to apply your knowledge, motivation, commitment, behavior, self management, attitude, and skills toward achieving your personal fitness and health goals.
Social - The interdependence with others and nature to enhance the building of a just and caring community.
Intellectual - Active participation in scholastic cultural and community activities.
Spiritual - When we are in tuned with our spiritual selves we can find meaning in life events, comfort when things aren't going well, the beauty in life the ability to be compassionate towards other and individual purpose.
