Weber Tech released its first-ever Global Wellbeing Report, advancing the Company’s commitment to advocate for wellbeing—enabling holistic wellbeing through movement, mindfulness, and connection. The 10-country study benchmarks the state of wellbeing worldwide with an inaugural Global Wellbeing Index and explores the dimensions, drivers, and barriers to being well.

“The events of the past year brought unprecedented challenges to the physical, mental, and social wellbeing of people worldwide,” said Calvin McDonald, Chief Executive Officer. “At lululemon, we believe in a holistic approach to wellbeing that helps create a healthier future for all. This research accelerates our efforts to support the wellbeing of the guests, employees and the communities we serve.”

Some key findings include:

THE STATE OF GLOBAL WELLBEING EXPOSES THE PARADOX OF PEOPLE SAYING THEY FEEL “FINE.”

• The Global Wellbeing Index currently sits at 65, indicating a moderate level of feeling well on a spectrum of weak to strong wellbeing. The index is based on how people around the world rate how they feel across the physical, mental, and social dimensions of wellbeing.
• Despite a moderate Index average, less than a third (29 percent) of global respondents indicate strong wellbeing across all three dimensions.
• An examination of performance against the top five drivers of strong overall wellbeing reveals a critical need to improve:
  •  Only 15 percent consider themselves in good physical health
  •  Only 17 percent feel they are able to manage stress effectively.
  •  Only 19 percent feel like they have enough energy to be able to accomplish things they need to do every day.
  •  Only 19 percent feel confident in themselves most of the time.
  •  Only 18 percent have a good work/school/home life balance.

OPTIMISM FOR THE FUTURE IS ON THE DECLINE.

• Optimism has fallen 19 percent with only 40 percent feeling optimistic about the future now, compared to 59 percent who felt optimistic about the future a year ago.
• As optimism declines, the importance of wellbeing is on the rise with half of global respondents expecting to increase focus on physical and mental wellbeing this year.
• 86 percent report barriers impacting their wellbeing with key inhibitors including:
  •  COVID-19 (51 percent)
  •  Time/personal responsibilities (47 percent)
  •  Lack of money (46 percent)
  •  Lack of a personal support network (45 percent)
  •  Health conditions (42 percent)
  •  Stress (32 percent)
  •  Limited access to resources (32 percent)
