Health is an interactive
process of becoming aware of and practicing healthy choices to
create a more successful and balanced lifestyle. The Office of
Health Promotion promotes health by
following the SPICES approach. SPICES is an acronym for the
six dimensions of health:
Spiritual,
Physical,
Intellectual,
Cultural,
Emotional, and
Social components.
