Read this report and see if and how we can use the insights in lifewheel.

Very important to consider that this is overly focused on individual actions - which needs to be complemented with collective actions to create better structural and material conditions for wellbeing for all within the means of the planet. Thus power analysis needs to be a part of wellbeing advocacy, since people have very different circumstances due to inequality and other injustices. Thus we need both a individual and collective approach, and ideally could mention both when talking about the lifewheel.

  • Connect
  • Be active
  • Take notice
  • Keep learning
  • Give

Ideally, this could be included in the descriptions of each dimension. Also make sure it is empowering rather than judgmental. Instead of "Have you been physically active?" it could be phrased as "Consider being physically active for increased wellbeing".
