What Is Holistic Wellness and Why Should You Embrace It?

"Wellness is the complete integration of body, mind and spirit." - Greg Anderson

Living holistically means that you are actively aware of your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual states and needs, honoring each by making choices that support your whole self and that are in alignment with the version of you you'd like to experience. Holistic wellness is also a mindfulness of your thoughts, speech, and actions and seeing the interconnectedness between your internal experience and your external reality.

Embracing holistic wellness means that you are actively engaging in self-care and self-responsibility by practicing all and not just some of the following habits: Mindfulness of your thoughts and course-correcting the negative ones; Feeling and expressing your emotions in healthy ways; Eating nourishing foods and getting enough sleep; Moving your body and connecting with Spirit daily.

Why should you embrace holistic wellness?

This whole person approach to wellness ensures that you are meeting all of your needs because in doing so, you will be far more able to show up to your life - and relationships - with greater energy, presence, peace and confidence. In a chaotic world full of stimulation and distractions, learning how to tune inward to hear the guidance and wisdom of your own body and heart is also essential to living your healthiest, fullest, and most authentic life.

Which areas (mental, emotional, physical or spiritual) are your strengths and which do you feel needs more care and attention?
