PREFACE What Is Wellness? Wellness is a modern word with ancient roots. The key tenets of wellness as both preventiveand holistic can be traced back to ancient civilizations from the East (India, China) to the West(Greece, Rome). In 19thcentury Europe and the United States, a variety of intellectual, religious, andmedical movements developed in parallel with conventional medicine. With their focus on holisticand natural approaches, self-healing, and preventive care, these movements have provided a firmfoundation for wellness today. Wellness-focused and holistic modalities have gained more visibilitysince the 1960s/1970s under the writings and thought leadership of an informal network of U.S.physicians and thinkers (such as Halbert Dunn, Jack Travis, Don Ardell, Bill Hettler, and others).As these have evolved, proliferated, and gone mainstream, they have informed the healthy-living,self-help, self-care, fitness, nutrition, diet, and spirituality practices that have become a flourishingwellness movement in the 21stcentury. The Global Wellness Institute (GWI) defines wellness as:the active pursuit of activities, choices,and lifestyles that lead to a state of holistic health. Thereare two important aspects to thisdefinition. First, wellness is not a passive orstatic state, but rather an “active pursuit” thatisassociated with intentions,choices,andactions as we work toward an optimal stateof health and well-being. Second, wellness islinked to holistic health – that is, it extendsbeyondphysical health and incorporatesmany different dimensions that should work inharmony (see figure). Wellness is an individual pursuit – we have self-responsibility for our own choices, behaviors,andlifestyles–but it is also significantlyinfluenced by the physical, social, and culturalenvironments in which we live. Research onthedeterminants of health indicates thatenvironmental,socioeconomic,and lifestylefactors can account for 80-90% of our diseaserisks and health outcomes. Wellness is often confused with terms like health, well-being, and happiness. While there arecommon elements among them, wellness is distinguished by not referring to a static state ofbeing (i.e., being happy, in good health, or a state of well-being). Rather, wellness is associatedwith an active process of being aware and making choices that lead toward an outcome of optimalholistic health and well-being. PREFACE What Is the Wellness Economy? The Global Wellness Institute (GWI) defines the wellness economy asindustries that enableconsumers to incorporate wellness activities and lifestyles into their dailylives.In our definition,the wellness economy encompasses eleven varied and diverse sectors. GWI first pioneered this concept and measured the wellness economy in the 2014Global WellnessEconomy Monitor, when we estimated wellness as a $3.4 trillion industry in 2013. To our knowledge,this was the first time that wellness was defined and measured as a global industry, with underlyingsector-level and country-level data. Since then, we have published updated figures on the wellnessecono
