Industry needs to put more effort in seafarers’ well- being F ollowing the launch of our new ser- vice ‘SEAFiT’ in last October, the time has come for the first SEAFiT magazine with the aim to address the main dimensions of wellness at sea and suggest ways for crew members onboard to have a good work-life balance. As we have already explained, there are five key dimensions associated with one individual’s wellbeing: physical, men- tal, social, intellectual and spiritual. If any one of these dimensions is neglected over time, it will adversely affect one’s health, well-being, and quality of life. Thus, it is important to everyone to be well in each dimension while taking action to build well- ness-affirming habits, routines, and coping strategies. This edition focuses on simple prac- tices for better sleep, from setting a sleep schedule to including physical activity in your daily routine. Also, it features sever- al Infographics and useful columns and tools to take a proactive approach over each aforementioned dimension. Further- more, we host interviews with industry ex- perts who cite their experience and pre- sent an overview of their lifestyle, aiming to motivate our readers with wellness tips and suggestions.
