A pre-recorded streaming VIDEO replay of one session from the May 2026 live seminar, The Wellness Institute.
Shalom is a beautiful word. It is an expression of peace. Yet its Hebrew roots go deeper than that. To experience shalom is to experience wholeness; to flourish. Philosopher Nicholas Wolterstorff describes shalom as “the state of flourishing in all dimensions of one’s existence.”
Wellness also is often described as “dimensions.” Six are often named: physical, emotional, spiritual, occupational, social and intellectual. They have been described as “a holistic framework for achieving a balanced, high-quality life.”
Do you notice a slight variation between the two constructs? Shalom is described as “flourishing” and “wellness” as “achieving.” This talk invites you to envision wholeness by setting “achieving” aside as we retreat from our daily routines and returning to our “why” — why did we want to become lawyers in the first place? And then those memories may help us to flourish in this noble profession to which we have been called.
The Honorable William C. Mims, Senior Justice, Supreme Court of Virginia, Former Chair of the Court’s Lawyers’ Wellness Initiative
