Wellness…such an overused word. It can mean different things to all of us. Are you functioning at your highest level? How do you know? Nowadays, the wellness industry makes billions and billions of dollars on the premise that we mostly are not. Look anywhere on television or social media, and you will see at least one ad that is geared toward a specific area of wellness, whether it be mental clarity pills, weight loss aids, spiritual books, or even cosmetic surgery….you know what I am referring to, the list is endless.
No matter what appeals to you, one thing that I know with absolute certainty is that if we are not managing our energy, and all it’s parts, we are not performing in any area of life at our highest potential. Our energy is the foundation of our very beings. What do you think about when you think of wellness and energy? I used to think about this as physical energy only---and my “wellness” was gauged by how many doctor visits I made a year. Um, NO! I was so wrong!
That mentality was a long time ago, and I have since learned the art of creating balance in my life---the truth is though, that this is an ongoing effort…a lifestyle. And, changing our mindset coupled with changing our lifestyle can be very challenging at best.
If you feel that there is any part of your wellness that is “off” or you feel that there’s more focus on one area of your energy than the others, then this is where we need to begin our focus because without energy, balance and overall wellness, we can never reach our fullest potential.
