The wellness materials and workshops offered through Nurture Healing are designed to help you optimize your wellness and support your body’s ability to heal.
When we acquire wellness skills and practice wellness in our lives, we can promote healing, regeneration and repair in our bodies. Certainly, there are times that we may need medications or treatments, but when we practice wellness we actively and intentionally bring greater health and wellness into our lives.
There are things that we can do in our lives that can help decrease inflammation, support cellular renewal, and enhance recovery, health and vitality.
You can let your doctor prescribe any necessary treatments while you focus on becoming an active participant in your wellness and include important lifestyle modification that can improve your health.
Align with greater wellness.
When faced with an illness or a health challenge, our current health care system offers many important treatments and medications, but this may not always be enough. Although a treatment based approach can be helpful and often necessary, this can also lead to a sense of being stuck in a cycle of taking medications, partially suppressing symptoms, and creating side effects. This standard approach to illness can often feel incomplete.
This is where you can make a difference in your health by focusing on wellness. By focusing on the things that you can do to align with wellness you can enhance recovery and renewal.
It's time to focus on wellness.
When you focus on creating wellness, you find the conditions in your life that best serve healing, regeneration and renewal in the body. You become aware of all the ways you can contribute to the potential of health within your body and empowered to shift the way you live to align with greater health.
The Nurture Healing Materials offered here can help you focus on specific, realistic, and positive actions that can help you feel better by using five pillars of wellness: mindfulness as medicine, food as medicine, relaxation as medicine, movement as medicine, and joy as medicine.
The Five Pillars of Wellness
Because feeling good is NOT just about luck, or genetics, or circumstances. What you do each and every day matters.
Your body is not static. The body you have today is not the same body you had 6 months ago and it is going to be different 6 months from now. There are trillions of cells in the human body, and these cells are constantly moving and changing, dying and being born anew. Scientists estimate that, every week we replace the lining of our intestines; every month we shed and replace our entire skin, in just three months we make a whole tank of fresh blood, and every year we generate a mass of cells equal to our own body weight. Many cells in our bodies are literally remade anew each and every day.
The Nurture Healing Wellness Materials are offered here to give you an understanding of the tangible skills that you can use in your life to help yourself feel better.
As you implement wellness tools and skills, you are actually giving yourself the opportunity to grow a healthier body from the inside out.
Wellness is a practice - a way of life.
The body is incredibly resilient. It can change and heal and often recover when given the proper conditions. Bringing greater wellness into your life is about becoming educated, empowered, inspired, and ultimately, an active participant in creating your health. When you are committed to the practice of wellness in your life, you are giving yourself, and those you love, a true gift.
Bodies are designed to heal just like seeds are made to grow.
Though we cannot control everything that is (or isn't) going to happen in our bodies, we can certainly make a positive impact and tip the scales toward greater wellbeing. But we must first plant the seeds of wellness, give ourselves time to adjust, create habits that stick, and then allow wellness to grow over a period time.
Look to the things you can do in your life to grow wellness from within.
