Occupational Wellness is one of the 7 Aspects of Wellness, and it focuses on our search for a calling. Occupational Wellness involves exploring various career options and finding where you fit. It also involves creating a healthy and supportive work environment in which to pursue your career goals and dreams. When people are doing what they were meant to do, they deepen their sense of meaning and purpose. Occupational Wellness may require taking steps to reduce work stress or facing workaholism. Part of Occupational Wellness is coming to an understanding that work and personal life need to be in balance.
Occupational Wellness involves learning to deal with workplace stress, building stronger working relationships with your co-workers, exploring options to create a better work environment and progressing toward your career goals. Optimum Occupational Wellness means not only doing a job and doing it well (although that’s part of it); it involves seeking out ways to reach your career dreams and highest aspirations so that you can do what you love. For some, this may mean first gaining self-awareness so that they know what they love. Because what we do for a living encompasses so much of our time, it’s important for our overall well-being to do what we love and love what we do.
