The Nine Pillars of Holistic Health Editorial Note: This article was originally published as The Seven Pillars of Health. It has been substantially revised to reflect the expanded Nine Pillars framework I now use, and a more personal, integrated understanding of wellness. We are often taught to approach health as something we should achieve. Eat correctly. Exercise consistently. Sleep eight hours. Manage stress. Stay positive. Each recommendation may contain something useful.
