Abstract
Personnel wellness in professional environments is often perceived as a secondary concern wherein efficiency and productivity are prioritized. The Blue Zones philosophy challenges this traditional approach. We propose implementing consistent wellness practices that are based on the Blue Zones principles and believe that these will primarily benefit providers and organizations as a whole. By fostering an environment where all interactions and activities nurture the collective, we can reimagine wellness as an integral part of professional life.
