TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR HEALTH WITH ELIA WELLNESS
When people think about health, they usually think about balancing physical and mental health – they forget an important part of health, which is spiritual health.
You can be physically fit and mentally depressed. You can be positive and physically unhealthy. Or you can be physically healthy, and mentally positive yet feel empty inside, and may feel like life has no meaning. Whole-person health is about addressing more than just physical and mental health, to prevent and manage chronic disease.
