August is National Wellness Month, which was founded to encourage people to focus on their health – self-care, stress management, and healthy routines. But financial health is a big part of a person’s overall wellness too. Financial issues contribute to stress, put strain on relationships, and diminish self-esteem. Addressing your finances during National Wellness Month can help you address the core causes of your personal wellness challenges. As you participate in National Wellness Month, take time also to focus on your finances – commit to taking action on at least one financial area that you feel may have impact on your overall health and well-being.
