Irish Translation for "Well being"

Hi all, looking for the translation of the words well being into Irish? Well being in the context of work / life balance, health, etc.

Sláinte = health

"Folláine" seems to be acceptable as well.

Thanks and what does Folláine literally mean?

Edit: It's ok, got it! Thanks again.

Healthiness - literally, anyway. That doesn't necessarily mean it can be used where "healthiness" in English can, but that's what it basically means.

Suaimhneas is another one you could use.

Yes, this is a good one. It means "peacefulness, tranquility, calmness".
