CWUW Icons.png

7 Dimensions of Wellness includes: physical, spiritual, environmental, occupational, intellectual, emotional, and social. These dimensions of wellness stress a balance in lifestyle and support healthy living. CWUW believes that addressing each dimension leads to healthy decision-making and a healthy family structure. 

We provide a supportive setting and support system to assist the participant in understanding the various ways she can approach successful healing and have a better understanding of why preventive health is important.
