ALL the parts of Health is WELLNESS.

Having WELLNESS is the balance of ALL 4 PARTS of HEALTH.  I will define each for a traditional wording, but in reality its all about applying these concepts as they directly effect what you do and how you FEEL each and every day.  If just one part is off balance, the others will suffer too as they are all interwoven together to create how you truly feel.  During the day, week or month we focus on just the physical aspect if we are healthy, as our education system and society in general place more of an emphasis here.  Unfortunately this creates a disconnect of where our attention could be placed.

Here is a simple Health Class 101 Definition of the 4 PARTS OF HEALTH:

1.  Mental Health -  continued growth and learning to deal with new challenges effectively.  Here is an example of poor mental health:  We know to use the seat belt, but don’t 100% of the time. 


2.  Social Health - ability to interact successfully with people within one’s personal environment.  This includes tolerance for those with different opinions and beliefs.

3.  Emotional Health - ability to control stress and express emotions appropriately and comfortably.  To experience life’s ups and down with grace and enthusiasm.

4.  Physical Health -( Specific Breakdown of Physical Health ) - ability to carry out daily tasks, develop cardio, flexibility, muscular strength & endurance, eat adequate nutrition, personal hygiene, and preventative medical care

 Do what you can, enhance what you are already doing, give a little more focus on an area that requires some work.  Working on you is NOT easy.  Getting support and education to create a healthy lifestyle can be challenging @ first, but small simple enhancements can start that snow ball effect to a healthier you!

Top 5 Ways to be YOU (enhancement 101)!

Wellness Hero's Top 5 ways to just be YOU....you already know, time to apply these simple ways to bring about changes that are LIFE rewarding.  Be you & be connected to your body and how to use it best for what you require. 

1.  Breathe Deeply (this changes everything from thoughts, to posture, give it a try several times in a row, I dare you to breathe!)

2.  Smile (this is a game changer in EVERY situation.  Just smile to smile, do it with your eyes open or closed, works both ways, try it!)

3.  Listen to your Heart (not only physically to its beating, but to what it is telling you about your true feelings, this takes much practice, but we all feel, so we all can listen too!)

4.  Stand & Sit Straight UP (posture, body alignment can allow energy blocks within our bodies to open up & obtain deeper circulation)

5.  Take time to Meditate (looking inward will change everything, sit quitely and just breathe (and maybe apply #1 here?!) allow your mind to clear and settle, then you will SEE!)

How about taking care of you?

Wellness is comprised of equal balance (25% each for those math peps) of:
            1. Mental
            2. Emotional
            3. Social
            4. Physical

HEALTH.  Each of these dimensions is intertwine to the other, so even if one is in a negative balance then the other three are directly impacted as well.

Each moment of everyday we are practice each of these components whether that person is conscious of it or not.  Understand that not practicing something is actually a choice to not to work on the habits that comprise what we do over the course of the day.

A person has thousands of habits, but really likes to embrace those that make us feel good (Emotional Health).  I feel great in so many situations, but that took tremendous amount of actual work on my Mental side of Wellness.  Thinking about thoughts is some DEEP campfire kind of stuff!

The point of all is this is their is more to our daily experiences that WE has people have FULL CONTROL of.  I like to say excuses are like assholes, everyone has them and they stink....Be who you want, make choices that allow you to spread JOY to all those around you.  When a person practices any aspect of wellness SMILING is much easier :)

Carpe Diem & Nameste!

Smiling is AWESOME, have you tried it?

As I continue to channel health & wellness content to all those interested, a shift from my approach is being applied.  I look at everyday as we are training for life, are you practicing quality sleep, nutrition dense eating patterns, moving that body optimally each day?  Life is practice, each day is another opportunity to do what we want with our individual choices. 

The mission is to be the best single daddy I can by choosing to share my life experience with my son.  This experience just so happens to be teach basic fundamental principles of mental, social, emotional health with the physical like exercise, nutrition, and basically WELLNESS into day to day occurrences. 

Living life each day is a gift, but with adult responsibilities, sometimes we get distracted from what truly is important in life.  Smile NOW!   I find my family and health are most vital to my experience on EARTH and my smile correlates with how I feel.  I want to smile, I choose to smile, my smile is supported by daily choices that allow my body to thrive.  Everyone wants happiness and no one wants to suffer.  How can we choose happiness?

My intention is to guide others with activities, ideas, and openness to thinking differently about who you are and what you do.  How can you be happy?  We can all shift our minds to new experiences and create the happiness we want to see and be. 

How many parents out there want to do more, but feel a bit overwhelmed to do so?  Let me support you and be your guide while you support me by subscribing to my blog & youtube channel.  I have been developing many health and wellness concepts to be applied into a simpler approach that can allow YOU to smile :) everyday! No topic is off limits and all questions and comments welcomed!

Emotional Health.

Emotional Health

Feelings are attached to what we do, who we are with, and in this case, words.  I just started telling myself that its ok to sit down and write for others to not only get emotional about what they are reading, but they are reading my emotions.  See my dilema is to not be in front of a computer or some piece of technology, but to be outside experiencing emotional health, educating through personal interaction to express feelings regarding health and wellness, and pursing my happiness of the human connection to everything around us which empowers me to smile from ear to ear!

People can be connected in so diverse ways, and people who tap in to writing & reading others who have written will get emotional.  Its a new kind of emotion that truly hasn't been identified up to this point.  Less than 2 hundred years ago the printing press was just coming into its own and electricity wasn't even harnessed yet.   Now people feel connected to others from just witnessing a few key strokes and they have never met, but have shared their words and interpreted those statements & paragraphs to just be relative to their own experience.

The sensation of being in another presence and witnessing daily habits (not just words) with routines will yield a more powerful expereience if you are experiencing strong emotions about another person words....well here we go.  This will be a simple exercise to tap into emotional health, what this post is about.....

1.  Sit in a peaceful environment, where you can feel at ease, relaxed, and comfortable.
2.  Close your eyes for 15 min...& focus on your breath to clear your mind
3.  What types of emotions to you experience over the next 15 min...?

The practice goes much deeper then the simple 3 instructions, but if a person is to isolate one intention (breath), the clarity can be experienced in the mind, and emotions can be identified during this period of stillness as well.  Clearing the mind takes much practice and sitting still for 15 min. is not any easy task by any means.  If you have never focused on your breath here is a sub practice:

1.  Should utilize a belly breath style with in through nose & out through mouth with tongue gently touching your pallet.
2.  Two Types:
       A.  4-5-8....Inhale for 4 seconds, pause/transition for 5 sec., exhale for 8 sec.
      B.  Inhale and think one, pause/transition think one, exhale, think one, then think one on the pause before starting to think two for next inhale...repeat through #10 with no mistakes and you have strong mental health.

These simple, yet powerful breathing styles should not be undermined this is a very sound HEALTHY practice!  And aids a person in both mental and emotional health strength :)'
