THE MULTICULTURAL WELLNESS WHEELis designed to support wellness practitioners and related stakeholders in broadening their outlook as it relates to the concepts of wellness and well-being, and to support the recognition of the interlocking systems displayed within the wheel.

THE MULTICULTURAL WELLNESS WHEELBroadening Concepts of Wellness and Well-being

The Multicultural Wellness Wheel focuses on three pillars for optimal and lifelong well-being–Personal and Family, Community, and Worksite Wellness.

• Personal & Family Wellness is addressed by fostering wellness through healthy daily habits and developing self-efficacy, and through integrative medicine components aligned with an integral mind-body-spirit approach.

• Community Wellness is focused on Upstream, Midstream and Downstream initiatives that support underserved communities and minimize healthcare disparities.

• Worksite Wellness encompasses work/life balance components and worksite diversity initiatives to increase cultural sensitivity, raise awareness of worksite diversity benefits and challenges, and promote a value-driven organizational culture.

How Can Wellness and Healthcare Practitioners Develop and Apply Multicultural Competency?

• By becoming aware of one’s own personal assumptions about human behavior, values, bias, stereotypes, and personal limitations. Practitioners learn who they are as “cultural beings” and how cultural socialization has shaped their worldview and their ability to work effectively with culturally diverse populations.

• A culturally skilled practitioner is one who actively attempts to understand the worldview of their culturally different clients without negative judgments, and shows respect and appreciation for human differences.

• A culturally skilled practitioner is mindful of actively developing and practicing culturally appropriate intervention strategies and working appropriately within diverse communities.

Interactive dialogue process in which people listen to one another deeply enough to be changed by what they learn during the engagement.

Provides the opportunity for participants to open their minds to absorb new views and enlarge their perspectives.

Opportunity to build wellness and to bring people together across cultural differences.

A dialogue process that allows participants to build sustainable and productive relationships.

Deliberation is not a debate to win over others–it’s a collective learning process to build democracy.

An opportunity to rethink biases and assumptions, construct and generate new goals, transform perspectives, discover common ground, and move to action!
