Abstract

Personal wellness is a comprehensive way of life that emphasizes achieving one’s highest degree of health in all spheres of one’s life, including physical, mental, emotional, social, environmental, financial, and occupational health. In fact, current studies appear to indicate that many of the individual elements of personal wellness have transgenerational consequences. It is likely that many of these effects will be irreversible, which emphasizes the significance of promoting personal wellness from a young age. Clients, relatives, friends, neighbors, coworkers, and others may all gain from a person’s individual wellness, which supports a healthy society. On the other hand, education equips people with the necessary knowledge to enjoy healthy and fulfilling lives. The improvement of mental health, which makes up around 7% of the worldwide disease burden and 19% of all disability years, is one way that education adds to a person’s well -being. The growth of financial literacy and personal wellness are also correlated through education. Both age-related cognitive decline and cognitive performance are delayed by education. This gave rise to “cognitive reserve” (CR) theory, which contends that those with greater reserves are more resilient to the effects of aging, age-related cognitive decline, environmental assaults, etc., on the brain. As health disparities widen globally and individuals with less education face physical and financial challenges, their quality of life is negatively impacted. Research and policy have a great deal of potential to improve the situation and the health and well-being of the populace because education has historically been a neglected social intervention and a crucial factor in defining health.
