A global health and economic pandemic has gripped the world, with over 19.7 million infected and more than 728,000 deaths from COVID-19 as of this book's publication. The virus has affected 200 countries and all 50 U.S. states, leading to nearly 53 million unemployment claims in the U.S. between mid-March and mid-July 2020. Global economic growth plummeted by 5.2% in the first half of 2020, resulting in a recession for 90% of the world's economies, the worst since World War II. Dr. Sherri James shares her personal experience with the pandemic, having lost family members to the virus while her son survived. Additionally, a global social and racial pandemic has gained attention, highlighted by nearly 500,000 protestors gathering on June 6, 2020, in support of the Black Lives Matter Movement, marking the largest one-day protest in U.S. history. Following the tragic death of George Floyd, millions have taken to the streets in the U.S. and worldwide, advocating for change. The need for a pathway to wellness is more critical than ever. The wellness workbook offers insights into the eight tenets of wellness, their significance, and how to achieve them. It includes a Wellness Quotient survey for a real-time assessment of one's wellness journey. Dr. James encourages readers to Get Well, Be Well, Stay Well.
