To be – “being” – is to be in a state of natural grace taking
all aspects of the whole being – Body, Mind and Spirit – into consideration.
Holistic development of one’s potential to achieve a greater sense of well-being, treating an illness or injury, or striving for self-realization, has to involve conscious awareness of all the facets human being. Mindfulness, consciousness, or an openness to learn and grow is the most important aspect of achieving greater well-being. In this sense well-being is the engagement in the process, not the successes achieved.

Lifestyle – a Healing Way
A well-being lifestyle orientation should include exercise, treatments/therapy, supplements and mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. Healing modalities have to be based on a holistic philosophy to truly make a difference, and common sense practicalities such as drinking enough water, and spending time with positive, humane people should be included in a lifestyle directed at creating well-being.
Happiness, at home, work, in relationships, effective communication, career goal orientation and other elements that lends meaning to life is as important as nutrition. Exercise has to take good posture, effective mobility and effective breathing into consideration. Relative absence of chronic stress, tension, fear, anxiety, feelings of separateness, inadequacy, over excitement, poor thinking habits, physical and mental trauma is perhaps an ideal that seems impossible to reach, yet the process of healing, the journey towards become whole is perfect in its own seemingly imperfections.

A few minutes of daily practice, i.e. stretching every day, meditating every second or third day, a regular monthly treatment, rejuvenating rest and reading on a weekend day, occasional walks in nature should be an attainable goal, and not take up a disproportionate amount of time, just like work and other commitments should have a time and place. Only a few minutes of focused practice is necessary for effective lifestyle management – practice the rest of the day should be absorbed into everyday routine.
