Eight Dimensions of Wellness

Health and wellness is more than the absence of disease and encompasses our quality of life and overall well being. While students can take individual steps to prioritize their health and wellness, Haverford recognizes that structural support is needed to bolster students’ efforts. Haverford College strives to address each of SAMSHA’s eight dimensions of wellness through both our campus resources and community partners. The dimensions of wellness are interdependent, meaning strengthening one dimension can have positive impacts on others. Ultimately, working toward balance in our lives and seeking out support from others to do so can lead to greater fulfillment and overall well being. Use the 8 dimensions of wellness to learn how you can Take Good Care of Yourself, Take Good Care of Others, and Take Good Care of your Community.

Learn more about each dimension of wellness and where you can receive education and support.
