- DOCUMENTARY
- We all want to achieve wellness, but how many of us have a clear understanding of what it is or how to measure it? Some believe it’s meeting a certain set of metrics around health. Others see it as becoming a more effective self-advocate when navigating our health challenges, or creating a balance in work, fitness, and family that promotes a sense of well-being.However we define wellness, we can all use advice from thoughtful people about how to find it for ourselves. That’s the mission of Slate’s new podcast ‘Well, Now.’ Each week, our expert hosts will tackle a new issue around wellness, from the latest exercise craze, to the controversy over BMI, to the best ways to promote sleep hygiene. Every episode aims to give listeners a new understanding of wellness, and how to reach it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
