The IDRLabs Well-Being Test is inspired by psychometric methodology and insights of the Dalai Lama.

The test provides feedback such as the following:

Mindful Presence: Denotes the recognition and embrace of the current moment rather than constantly focusing on the future or dwelling on the past. The Dalai Lama suggests that overlooking the present in favor of future plans can drain our energy, as it leads to neglecting the richness and opportunities immediately available. This concept refers to the importance of mindfulness and being fully engaged in the now, which can enhance our mental and emotional well-being, thus conserving energy.

Restful Balance: Refers to the necessity of balancing activity with rest. The Dalai Lama emphasizes that being a slave to time and relentless schedules depletes our energy. It denotes the importance of recognizing when to pause, rest, and move at a pace that respects our own rhythms. This approach fosters sustainable productivity and well-being by preventing burnout and allowing for rejuvenation, thereby protecting our energy reserves.

Nurturing Connections: Denotes the impact of our social environment on our energy levels. The Dalai Lama advises choosing to be around people who are supportive, loving, and positive, as opposed to those who are negative and draining. This concept refers to the idea that the energy of others, whether uplifting or depleting, significantly affects our own. By consciously selecting nurturing and constructive relationships, we can safeguard our energy and enhance our emotional health.

Holistic Wellness: This refers to the critical role of physical and emotional health in maintaining our energy levels. The Dalai Lama underscores the importance of attending to our bodily needs through rest, proper nutrition, and mindfulness practices. It denotes the concept that neglecting our health can lead to decreased vitality and energy. By prioritizing health and wellness, we can ensure that our energy is preserved and optimized for personal growth and daily activities.

Healing Forgiveness: Denotes the liberating power of forgiveness in conserving energy. The Dalai Lama suggests that holding onto grudges, anger, and resentment can significantly drain our emotional and mental energy. This concept refers to the idea that practicing forgiveness allows us to release negative emotions and past hurts, freeing up energy that was bound in these negative states. Forgiveness is seen as a pathway to emotional freedom and renewed energy.

Total Well-Being: Denotes your overall well-being, according to the Dalai Lama. Higher scores indicate greater well-being.
