Physical Wellness Guide

Physical wellness is one of those things people take for granted until they lose it.

In a perfect world we would understand from an early age how precious good physical health is. We would treasure it and nurture it and the environment it lives in.

It usually isn't like that. We have been conditioned to believe that as long as we aren't sick, we must be okay. You may even know the saying that health is the absence of disease. In truth, that is just a tiny piece of the picture. It is so much more than that. It is energy and vibrance and resilience of body and mind. You look good and you feel good.

When we are young, our bodies just seem to go with the flow. We eat what we want, thrive on little sleep, drink too much and smoke, oblivious to what we are doing to ourselves on the inside.

When we really take a look at how we abuse our bodies, it really is quite amazing that they function as well as they do for so long. Even when health issues are evident, physical wellness habits are often ignored.

But then, it happens. You get the scary diagnosis. You feel the aches and pains. Your energy starts to wane. Or you just feel unwell. You tell yourself it's a bug, but you don't get better.

That's when we start making promises to take better care of ourselves, to make physical health a priority. And sometimes we do - for a while. The problem is that habits run deep. And so our body health continues to go downhill until we can't ignore it any longer.

Fortunately, as long as the damage is not too great, our bodies respond when given what they need to repair and renew. Following the basics of a healthy lifestyle will reap great rewards. Sometimes you need to go above and beyond. That is what the Physical Wellness Guide is for.
