Dr. Shawn Weiss joins Suzanne to talk about the eight foundational principles of wellness. The Vitality Revolution podcast series kicks off this summer with an overview of the eight foundational principles of wellness as designed by the University of Colorado at Pueblo.

Suzanne says, "Let's lighten it up this summer. Let's focus on wellness on a higher potential and really think about how we can live a better quality of life, no matter what you're doing. These principles can help everyone. 

"Number one is emotional wellness. And we're going to talk about that piece today. So I'm gonna go past that. Number two is physical, and it's interesting they're put together in order. How do we keep our body healthy and vibrant? Number three, occupational wellness. Now it's interesting that we have occupational wellness after physical. But when we go through it, it makes total sense. Number four social wellness: how do we build connections and why are connections so important in the world? Then the next one, spiritual wellness, sets the stage of having a sense of well-being, of higher purpose, of contentment with the world, and being in congruity with our values. After that, intellectual wellness, which has to do with brain health. Are we utilizing our cognitive function in our brain appropriately, and to keep us level? Then we have environmental wellness. How do we build an environment that supports us? And then at the end is financial wellness and our resources. Do we have the resources to sustain us? 

"We're going talk this summer about all eight principles."
