Thanks to the growing burden of healthcare, the idea of "wellness" has received significant attention in research, practices, and policy efforts over the past decade. Healthcare reform remains a hot topic despite the much debated Affordable Care Act, and it remains anyone's guess as to whether or not a legislative effort will make a difference in the state of American health. A primary dilemma in health care is the approach we continue to take toward personal health. If you were to review some of the research that has been published over the last five decades, you would find that the basic recommendation for healthy living has barely expanded beyond the eat less, exercise more mantra of the healthcare experts fifty years ago. If a healthy lifestyle were that simple to achieve, why has population health continued to decline year after year? That is the billion dollar question many government agencies and healthcare systems around the world are trying to address. One of the greatest changes to healthcare is the growing realization that wellness is far more complex than a two-dimensional message of exercise and diet. The PIECES® approach to health and wellness came about during my academic attempt to make sense of the multitude of influences affecting population health around the globe. As a representation of the Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, Community, Environmental and Spiritual life categories into which health-influencing variables can be classified, PIECES® became the simple acronym to bring order to a complex interdisciplinary approach to health promotion! After substantiating this idea via an extensive research study surveying 422 international health professionals representing 87 individual nations, it was determined that the PIECES® were indeed essential categories of health promotion and the necessity for a new type of interdisciplinary approach to global health promotion was devised. Efforts were next directed toward using the PIECES® platform as a practical method for empowering college students to manage stress. Eventually it was discovered that by dividing disease influences into PIECES®, we also began to form innovative approaches to unravel other health issues. When my corporate clients found that the PIECES® approach was an effective method for analyzing health data, pinpointing cost drivers, and encouraging employee preventative health participation and behavior change, I knew I was on to something! Now I'm bringing the platform to you because so many have told me that the PIECES® concept needs to be shared on a larger scale. ~ the author.
