Diversity, Equity and Inclusion<\/h2>\n

Diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility is the core of the Wellness Wheel because well-being is intricately tied to our individual identities and impacted by systemic health inequities.\u00a0 Systemic health inequities have been historically known to impact individuals in our communities based on their ability, status, age, ethnicity or national origin, gender identity, immigration status, mental health status, recovery status, race, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and veteran or military status. Knowing this, we cannot achieve holistic health and wellness without acknowledging systems of oppression that exist in our communities. There are a number of ways<\/a> we can explore our identities and foster a more inclusive environment.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Physical<\/h2>\n

Physical wellness is about keeping our bodies healthy through nutrition, sleeping, exercise habits as well as being mindful of how we\u2019re impacted by stress levels, alcohol and other substances.
