Beauty and wellness often go hand-in-hand because how we look directly impacts how we feel. From our clothing choice, to how we style our hair, to the way we fit into our clothes, and the shape of our face, the way we look, how we maintain our physical selves sends a message to others and ourselves about who we are.
More importantly, our physical and intellectual well-being are crucial steps to maintaining two of the eight dimensions of wellness that govern how we stay healthy and whole individuals. All dimensions overlap and play one another, so it’s crucial to have a strong and balanced mixture of all realms. But what is wellness, and why should you maintain it?
According to the National Wellness Institute, wellness is defined as “an active process through which people become aware of, and make choices toward, a more successful existence”. The best version of yourself is someone who has a strong grasp on how to balance all 8 dimensions of wellness to live a sustainable and healthy life. Here is what all 8 dimensions of wellness consist of:
8 Dimensions of Wellness
- Physical: Maintain an appropriate level of physical activity, hygiene, healthy food, and sleep. Engage in self-care behaviors that will prevent illness, disease and maintain the body.
- Intellectual/Mental: Foster your unique talents, pushing your brain towards more difficult tasks, thoughts, and activities, and your ability to continue to learn and grow.
- Emotional: Develop and sustain healthy and satisfying relationships while being able to adapt to life’s challenges.
- Social: Spend time with others, connect to people who have the same interests as you do, and recognize when you are in an unhealthy relationship and when to step away from it are all elements of social wellness.
- Spiritual: Spiritual wellness has to do with your beliefs and what you find meaningful. This is the basis of your morality, how you view yourself, and what it means to be a good individual.
- Environmental: Maintain your environment in a way that supports your well-being through organization, cleanliness, and resources. A healthy environment is one that supports well-being and creates a positive atmosphere of healthy habits that uplift you. Spending time in a safe and comfortable space.
- Financial: Acquire financial stability, feel satisfied with your current and future financial goals, or work towards making a change until you are happy with your finances.
- Occupational: Occupy a career that enriches and satisfies your personal interests and skills for daily work.
Work Towards Wholeness
Connecting your body, mind, and spirit is a challenging but rewarding process. It’s important to check in on your overall wellness and reflect on what is working to increase how well-rounded and healthy you are versus what aspects of your life detract from it.
Once you identify the positives and negatives you can then maintain what is working and cut out what is holding you back from achieving wholeness.
When the 8 dimensions of wellness are in balance it becomes easier to navigate life and focus on more about what you care about, feel more optimistic, and move throughout your life without getting in your own way. By maintaining all 8 aspects of wellness it will be easier for you to age, overcome difficult situations, and feel more fulfillment.

Lady Gaga swears by the power of infrared sauna treatments to help relieve the pain and symptoms she has from fibromyalgia, a chronic pain condition. Today, an infrared sauna treatment is easier than ever with comfortable and convenient infrared sauna blankets. Are you intrigued yet?
During traditional infrared sauna treatment, you sit in a large, enclosed box that emits infrared light rays. Infrared rays heat your body directly without warming the air around you. These sauna treatments cause bodily reactions that resemble a vigorous workout — your heart rate climbs, you sweat, and your body releases a rush of feel-good endorphins.
An infrared sauna blanket does the same thing, only you lay under a heated blanket that wraps around you instead of sitting in a box. Under your toasty warm blanket, all you have to do is close your eyes, relax, and maybe throw on some good tunes to keep you company. During treatment, you’ll have the option to adjust the blanket settings to a heat that’s comfortable to you.
An infrared sauna blanket boasts numerous wellness benefits — keep reading to find out more!
5 Incredible Wellness Benefits of Sauna Blanket Sessions
If you’re looking for a new way to pamper your body, infrared sauna blankets are the wellness treatment you need. Treatment has few risks, and each session is incredibly relaxing for your mind and body. Here are some of the amazing wellness benefits you can expect.
- Better heart health. Infrared sauna blankets can improve your cardiovascular health. Research suggests that infrared treatments help reduce oxidative stress, reduce inflammation, improve blood flow, and lower blood pressure — all of which positively impact your heart health.
- Pain relief. One of the leading benefits of sauna blanket sessions is relief from chronic pain. If you have joint pain and stiffness or tight, tense muscles, sauna sessions can help reduce inflammation and soothe your aches and pains. A sauna blanket session may be especially helpful if you’re living with a chronic condition like rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, or chronic fatigue syndrome.
- A clearer complexion. It’s time to add infrared sauna blanket sessions to your skincare routine! Each heated session can improve blood circulation in your body (thus sending fresh oxygen and nutrients to your skin) and help you sweat out pore-clogging dirt, oils, and bacteria.
- Better mood and sleep. Ah, one of the most enjoyable advantages of infrared blankets: the endorphin rush and elevated heart rate that comes from a good workout….without having to work out. It’s the best of both worlds. A sauna blanket session can cause your body to release all the feel-good hormones that put you in a better mood and help you sleep more peacefully at night. Some people experience a reduction in depression and anxiety symptoms following treatment.
- A deep sense of relaxation. At the end of a long day, a good sweat session under an infrared blanket can help you relax, unwind, lower your blood pressure, and feel far less stressed. Simply relaxing enough to lower your stress level unlocks so many benefits to your health and well-being, from better sleep and weight control to a stronger immune system and less pain.
