2022 Best Wellness States in the United States of America

new study shows the wellness industry is projected to reach $7 trillion in value by 2025. The District of Columbia is the No. 9 best place for wellness. California is the No. 1 best state and Alabama is the No. 1 worst.

Interest in ‘wellness’ used to be niche, but it has surged following the health, economic, and political crises that led to a 25% spike in anxiety and depression, and a decline in life expectancy.

Factor in remote work and more Americans are choosing to live in places with strong health and wellness communities that enhance their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This includes a rising interest in healthy eating, exercise, dietary supplements, nature, self-care, and mindfulness.

Life Extension released a study on the Best and Worst States for Wellness in 2022 using the most recent data from the CDC, Census Bureau, National Parks Service and Google Trends across three main categories: physical and mental health; access to parks and nature; and integrative health practices.

Health Is Wealth

There is a strong correlation between sunshine, nature, and well-being. Four of the five best states are known for sunshine — California, Arizona, Florida, and Hawaii. Nine of the 10 best states have an above average percentage of land used for national parks.

Remember: Spending time outdoors is inherently good for your health. Hike. Bike. Run. Exercising can improve biomarkers for physical health and mental well-being. Visiting a national park is a great way to connect with nature. Go to a park near you.

Below is a chart of top United States wellness google trends by search:

What is ontology and where can I find an ontology expert?

Do you need an expert on ontology? The word “ontology” was recently uttered in a Gilmore Girls episode. Since it’s a buzz word now, what does it mean? The world’s leading experts on ontology, Landmark, defines ontology as the study of being and millions of people in 21 countries are currently studying ontology.

The Baby Shower Of Fears & Blessings

I had the weirdest dream that I was pregnant & at my baby shower. But the theme seemed to be blessings & fears. It was like I’d be handed a blessing or a fear I guess I wanted or didn’t want for my child to inherit but I knew existed in life. I couldn’t make out many faces but when I was a kid I was afraid to put sweaters over my head. I think my kid ends up inheriting that fear. But then I recognized a face from the guests there that was my brother Anthony. He passed away but Anthony had a gift. To me it was the best gift. It wasn’t just because Anthony gave it to me but I knew my baby would need it. It was health rather than sickness. It’s one of my worst fears as a mom to have a sick child that dies. & I was just so happy I was crying but I recall saying Thank you so much. Anthony looked so happy to give his gift. It’s like he knew his gift would be a hit at my party. I got up from the dream with tears. The strange thing is that I don’t think I’m expecting a baby so I don’t know why I would have a dream like that.

The Year of The Weight Lifter

strongBy Briana Bookerv/strong I came to the realization that I am no longer 17 years old. My body is not as fast as it use to be. My body is not as slim as it use to be. But here I stand as the best woman I have ever been thus far. I guess it is true, looks are not everything. Although I am aging, I still want to keep up my health and appearance. I will never be someone that settles for letting myself go. I love myself. With that said, I would like to push myself to be better than my previous self by dedicating a few hours weekly to weight lifting. I am working on my core, which I notice is not as fit as it use to be. The love of my life ( or I would like to think he is the love of my life) thinks my new found curves are beautiful but I want the 17 year old me to travel with the wonderful woman I am becoming now. Who knows, I might just surpass the 17 year old me. I am up for the challenge. Stay tuned.
