In some circles you may also hear of financial, environmental, and nutritional wellness, which we do address, but I just group them into these 6 categories.

So, what does all this mean?  We look at a wellness wheel and think of how each dimension of your life affects other dimensions.  Is your wheel balanced or wobbly?  During coaching we dive deep into all of these areas of your life to examine them closer.  By seeing the interlace of these dimension and understanding their relationship to your whole being, we arrive at holistic care.  Wellness is evergreen and always changing because our environment is always changing.  It’s a journey that never ends, and can be incredibly beautiful!

Wellness meaning  is essentially how balanced are you within your current setting? How do you respond to life? How do you feel compared to how you want to feel?  Are you where you want to be?  This is the primary difference between health and wellness.  While they do overlap, health and wellness meanings are not exactly the same.

Your health is being with or without disease.  It’s going to focus on your physical numbers such as blood pressure and sugar, risks for and management of diseases, access to care, following doctor’s recommendations, etc.

So whether or not you’re dying to lose weight, think you have to be on a diet to be healthy, need to buy a ton of supplements and equipment to be up to par on the wellness scene, or think you need to read a million books and blogs to know everything there is to know – none of that really matters!  

When we get into your coaching sessions, we’ll look at this wheel together and get clear on what wellness means for you and make a plan to get there!
