Last year in my introductory course to health sciences, Determinants of Health (HSS 1101) I’ve learned that besides physical wellness, health encompasses 6 other dimensions: (1) social health, (2) emotional health, (3) spiritual health,(4) environmental health, (5) occupational health, and (6) intellectual health.
Taking this class and learning about the 7 dimensions of health made me realized that wellness is much more than merely physical health, exercise or nutrition. It is the full integration of states of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Each of these seven dimensions act and interact in a way that contributes to our own quality of life.
Wellness is achieving one’s full potential. It is self-directed and an ever-evolving process that follows a lifestyle of balance in health that ultimately decreases the likelihood of becoming ill physically, mentally, and spiritually. Comprised of seven dimensions and characteristics, wellness is achieved when a person’s life includes all seven elements in combination and in whole.

Hat tip to John Ernst Worrell Keely as well.
This is a great team to help balance the lack of real science in the mainstream (psyence).
Psyence =
Initial misconception + Ad Hoc Theories + Blind faith in the originator of a theory + Ad Atiquitam + Derision + Dogmatism
How does the Avengers’ scientific work compare with the current mainstream psyence promoted? E.g. Einstein, Neil Degrase Tyson, Michio Kaku, Bill Nye and the rest of the quackademia that are $elling junk science.

In the coming days, you will hear this response from the defenders of our rotten status quo. “What the Paradise Papers has exposed is legal, so what is the problem?” They have an agenda, of course. They want to demonise the very concept of taxation because they want to roll back the state and construct a free-market “utopia” which, in practical terms, would be dystopian for the vast majority.
Owen Jones highlights what the Paradise Papers reveal in how elites are refusing to help the populace and how the loopholes are hurting society. As Jones goes on to note on Britain:
The state is punitive when it comes to, say, benefitfraudsters or thousands of young people criminalised for arbitrarily banned drugs, but uses kid gloves when it comes to our shameless uber-wealthy elite. The colossally destructive behaviour of the rich is permitted; the infractions of the poor are deemed intolerable.
As Owen Jones illuminates current society has been set as following:
One rule for those at the top, another for everyone else.
In this age of austerity, in which public services are being axed, the Pararise Papers highlights a greater ill in the practice of austerity as tax avoidance is set as such. As Owen Jones end his article:
A democratic revolution is surely coming in the western world, and this shameless, decadent elite only have themselves to blame.
