An assortment of businesses from around the Palouse as well as various departments from Washington State University will gather at this expo to share their expertise in all eight areas of wellbeing:

Financial: Making informed decisions and learning how to save, invest, use credit wisely, and plan for the future.
Intellectual: Being open to new ideas, thinking critically, being creative and curious, and being motivated to master new skills.
Occupational: Achieving personal satisfaction and enrichment in life through work.
Physical: Achieving optimal wellness through building physical strength, flexibility, and endurance while also taking safety precautions, including medical self-care and appropriate use of a medical system.
Social: Developing satisfying relationships, having support networks, participating and contributing to the community, developing the capacity for intimacy, and learning good communication skills.
Spiritual: Finding meaning and purpose to life and using a "world view" to choose actions that are consistent with personal beliefs and values.
