In recent years, public health experts have identified wellness as “a sense of well-being” and “quality of life.”Health & Well Being ‘Wellbeing’ refers to a positive rather than neutral state, framing health as a positive aspiration. This definition was adapted by the 1986 Ottawa charter, which describes health as ‘a resource for everyday life, not the object of living’.
