There is a growing literature on wellness for law in Australia and elsewhere. Significant uncertainty exists, however, about what exactly wellness means in this context. I argue that wellness is not best understood either as the absence of psychological distress or as the presence of life satisfaction or positive affect. I propose an alternative understanding of wellness that centres around the role of basic values in human flourishing. Wellness, I suggest, consists in participating in the various dimensions of human flourishing in a balanced and integrated way. This approach draws out the deep challenges that wellness poses to legal education and practice.

什么是健康？人类价值观的作用

在澳大利亚和其他地方，关于法律健康的文献越来越多。然而，在这种情况下，健康究竟意味着什么存在很大的不确定性。我认为，健康不能最好地理解为没有心理困扰，也不能理解为生活满意度或积极影响的存在。我提出了对健康的另一种理解，它以基本价值观在人类繁荣中的作用为中心。我建议，健康包括以平衡和综合的方式参与人类繁荣的各个方面。这种方法提出了健康对法律教育和实践构成的深刻挑战。
