Wellness Grind

When I chose to live a Wellness First Lifestyle in 2016, it took me a lot of start and stop tries to truly commit.

I had to break down the core of my past actions to support my well-being and find a new path on my wellness journey.

Your wellness is unique to your needs. Likely, you are living the "wellness last lifestyle" vs. putting your well-being in front of the rest of life's challenges.

Today, I live the Wellness First Lifestyle to the fullest.

I make sure to do my wellness activities in the morning before I start my day. I get my million dog walks a day in. I check in with friends more regularly. I have time to read books, take a bath, relax by the pool, and just enjoy life.

Of course you say, but Wendie you're not working right now- how do you expect me to do this?

That's the secret, I am working! Every day! I sometimes work 10-12 hours a day.

Here's how I get my wellness first lifestyle to work out even while building a business:

1) Start my day with a mile+ walk (20-45 mins)
2) Workout before I start work (45 mins max)
3) Take breaks every 2 hours, walk around, do some house work, chill (15-20 mins 2x a day)
4) Set aside at least an hour in the evening for my wellness activities and wind down (1 hour)

For approximately 2.5 hours a day focusing on my well-being vs. stressing and avoiding things I need to do... I've completely revolutionized how I feel every day.

I spend less time worrying about things and more time infusing the things I love doing in my schedule. That's the commitment I've made to myself.

You don't need to commit 2.5 hours a day! You can live a Wellness First Lifestyle, as long as you choose to identify time each day to dedicate to your well-being.
