PRA Well-being: Environmental Wellness

Policy Research Associates is committed to the well-being and wellness of individuals with behavioral health conditions. To help spread information about the importance of the Eight Dimensions of Wellness in recovery, we created a podcast series to address each pillar of wellness. In this podcast, you’ll hear about environmental wellness from Dr. Crystal Lee Brandow, Senior Project Associate at PRA and Dr. Margaret Swarbrick, an expert at Collaborative Support Programs of New Jersey and Rutgers University Behavioral Health Care. Dr. Swarbrick has been a leader, author, and advocate within the mental health system and consumer survivor movement. She has published and lectured nationally and internationally on wellness, peer operated services, employment, and recovery. In this discussion, Dr. Brandow and Dr. Swarbrick identify personal health habits and routines that can support environmental wellness and improve physical health.
