In an era where health encompasses not just physicality, immersive wellness has emerged as a multidimensional paradigm, encompassing the mental, emotional, technological, nutritional, organizational, and experiential aspects of well-being. The Immersive Wellness Spectrum: Trends, Technologies, and Transformations brings together an eclectic mix of interdisciplinary insights that explore the evolution and redefinition of wellness through technology, workplace dynamics, sustainability imperatives, and customized interventions.
Today, wellness is not just the absence of illness, but rather environments, systems, and experiences structured to empower individuals and institutions for sustenance. Whether it is multisensory HR innovations at work, AI-monitored personalized nutrition, digital detox initiatives, emotionally intelligent education, or sustainable wellness tourism, this volume captures the contemporary narratives in which immersive technologies and human-centric values are melded together.
The chapters contributed by academic scholars, industry experts, and wellness practitioners from around the world, areas of discussion include corporate sustainability, mental health, immersive marketing, supply chain innovation, and reform in higher education. In each domain, a chapter presents the transformative force of immersive wellness through conceptual frameworks, case studies, empirical findings, and directions for the future.
The Advances in Digital Technology and Data-Driven Business Practices series aims to shed light on the rapid developments, significance, benefits, and practical applications of evolving digital technologies and data-driven decision-making practices in businesses.
