What Is Your Wellness Quotient?
Unique to Creating Wellness is the Wellness Quotient (WQ) – a number value that indicates where your personal level of wellness falls on the scale of the wellness continuum. It is calculated by the results of a Wellness Assessment that measures you in all three dimensions of your life – physical, biochemical and psychological. Remember, life does not stand still. Every decision you make will move you in a direction toward wellness or sickness on the wellness continuum.
