Wellness Goes Far Beyond Exercise
Fitness is central to healthy living, but it’s not the whole of it.
Wellness is a more comprehensive concept that encompasses physical, psychological, social and spiritual health. We have to be aware of the interrelationship of all health-related behaviours.
We believe coaching is about understanding the whole person. People often come to us for exercise and soon learn that there’s so much more to the process.
It doesn’t matter if you exercise every day if you’re only getting 4-5 hours of sleep per night. We can’t ignore dietary habits either. Or the social world that influences a person’s eating patterns.
If we want to feel great and be joyful, we need to consider a multi-pronged change process that incorporates aspects of a person’s emotional, interpersonal, somatic and mental behaviours. Only then can meaningful change occur. Otherwise, we all just end up going through the motions and feeling lousy about ourselves.
What would it feel like to experience full-spectrum wellness in your life?
Always remember, motion is lotion. We encourage you to Move Well, Live Well™.
