Whole health... I'm talking the whole 360... mind, body, soul.
You hear that often when health is mentioned... this idea of the 3 - mind, body, soul.
I think that is a good place to start.
Growing up in this western way we aren't taught much about health.
Yes we did have gym class.. and yes gym class did have a health component to it... but to be perfectly honest there is nothing that stood out to me in that class.. nothing that stuck with me through these years other than the constant reinforcement of the consequences of sex and stds.
I look at my journey this far as a human and how learning to be healthy and to be happy has been 100% self taught.
And I say health AND happiness because they are intertwined. Which has also been learned through experience... health - whole health, is a path to happiness.
This is a big topic to cover but I wanted to share that if you don't feel 100% satisfied in life .. or you are struggling with your happiness, you are not alone.
I am try to figure it out myself.. but I feel like I have the pieces. It is when I put those pieces together that I find myself less stressed and more in control of everything that is me.
This post is an entry into further topics I want to cover when talking about whole health.
What we eat, what we think, what we look at, how much time screen time we do daily, whether or not we get physical activity, having happy relationships, our jobs - these are all a part of whole health.
Everyday I see more and more people wake up and start integrating parts of whole health into their life, and before you know it they figure it. I hope as I continue to share about this topic that we both walk away wanting to do more for ourselves. whoever you are.
