What is Balance?
By Rachel Zeskind

Balance looks different for every person, every lifestyle and every set of goals within the season of your life. Finding it is a journey of self discovery and an artful practice of self love, nurturing and care.

The question is ARE YOU CARING FOR & TREATING YOURSELF WITH LOVE? Are you gently working on balance and self care, learning how to take care of yourself out of love instead of a need to fix yourself in order to be accepted, desired, approved or good enough? Meditate and pray about what balance would look like in in your life and then challenge yourself out of love to set some goals that can help bring balance and peace where there may be business or chaos. But remember, always act out of love which is the most powerful force for change!

Creating Wellness
Wellness and balance go hand in hand. You can not have one without the other. Find balance and you will find wellness and vice versa. But what is wellness? It has been a hot buzz word in the news and in magazine articles, but how would one describe it?
I describe wellness as the care and feeding of the mind, body and spirit. All things in balance, that is wellness!

Wellness includes balancing all areas of life such as family, work, healthy relationships, finances and health. Wellness needs a plan of action to facilitate balance in health in the following areas:
Nutrition
Learning about your body
Fitness and physical activity
Stress release
Spirituality

Wellness doesn't happen by accident. Wellness takes (daily) time, energy and intentionality! May you always choose to BE WELL!
