On The Shelf - Some Wellbeing Stories

A Wellbeing Moment

The meaning of the word wellbeing – is the state of being comfortable, healthy, or happy. No matter where you may be in life your health is crucial to how you look and feel. One The Shelf – Five Wellness Stories – unveils wellness programs and rituals that can enhance your everyday wellbeing.

MY FITNESS LOVES

I have spent my life at the Ballet barre and competing competitively in swimming and high endurance sports. You will see in The Wellbeing Studio I have a great love for fitness programs that are Ballet and Pilates based; weight-bearing; and anything water based. I am very disciplined due to my ballet training, though over the years I have restyled my fitness programs when required. My greatest passion is swimming – in the ocean or a pool, all year round.

MY FITNESS RULES

Not all fitness programs have to be at a high level. And not all programs are created equal.

I do not follow fitness trends, for me it is about creating a program that suits my personal needs.

You need to consult with a health, or fitness professional, to create fitness and nutrition programs that reflects your current fitness levels and goals.

Health supplements should enhance your wellbeing – not replace a well-balanced and nutrition-based diet. Always read an ingredients list for ingestible supplement products. Understand that there is a reason that health products are regulated and carry very strict product, and ingredients claims.

And importantly, you should never feel that you need to keep up with others as you find your own wellbeing path in life. It should always be evolving and inspiring, and about you.

ON THE SHELF

So, let us begin with five wellness stories that may begin a new journey for you – from active pursuits style to creating a good night’s sleep.
