Occupational wellness has to do with doing something you love for a living. When you do some thing you love for a living its a career not a job, it doesn’t feel like an obligation it’s something you look forward to everyday .

An article from the University of California, Riverside  states that  “Because what we do for a living encompasses so much of our time, it’s important for our overall well-being to do what we love and love what we do. When people are doing what they were meant to do, they deepen their sense of meaning and purpose.” This wellness can affect your life in a positive way, feeling motivated and inspired is an important thing  to feel at work when trying to accomplish occupational wellness.

An article from the University of New Hampshire   talks about ways to improve occupational wellness, for example it says you should find a balance between work and life so you’re not over working yourself. Improving your occupational wellness doesn’t take up any of your time it’s just about putting in the effort to change things if you are not happy with your current situation.

Even if you just look at the positive reasons for working at your current location or finding connections with your coworkers.  From experience I can say getting to know the people you work with can change a lot, you feel more motivated when you are surrounded by people you enjoy working with.

Occupational wellness is an important thing to have, it’s something that can change how you feel when you are on your way or at the work place you are currently in. This is a place you spend a lot of your time and if it’s not a place you are looking forward going to everyday than how can you fully enjoy life.
