WELLNESS IS NEVER A STATIC STATE

Wellness is not just about being free from illness but an ongoing process, where each person finds their own path to feeling good mentally and physically.

Even though people often lack physical symptoms, they may still be bored, depressed, tense, anxious, or simply unhappy with their lives. Such emotional states often set the stage for physical and mental disease.

In the United States, mental illness is the number one cause of disability, according to the World Health Organization.

45 million adults have been diagnosed with a mental illness, a number that represents 1 in 5 persons.

The ripple effects of mental health can be extreme...

Individuals grappling with serious mental illnesses face a stark reduction in life expectancy compared to the general population. The statistics are startling with a 2-3 times higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and life expectancy reduced by 10 to 25 years among those with severe mental disorders​1​​2​​3​.

At LORIES CALLING, we are focused on the entire illness-wellness continuum, and providing community programs that benefit awareness, education, and growth in a comprehensive way.
