Wellness

Physical wellness and mental wellness are interconnected but distinct aspects of overall health:

• Physical wellness focuses on the body's health, including fitness, nutrition, sleep, and absence of illness.
• Mental wellness pertains to psychological and emotional well-being, including stress management, cognitive function, and emotional stability.

At Universal Healing & Wellness, we believe in a holistic approach that addresses both physical and mental aspects for complete well-being.
