#LiveWholeHealth

Is your calendar filled with schedules and rarely time to enjoy life? Pleasant experiences? It may sound corny, but you only get this one life. You can give yourself regular “appointments” for things that bring you joy. Here's how.

It is the middle of January… do you know where your resolution is?

Are you able to find balance between activity and rest? To find that balance we have to learn to slow down and take stock of all that is going on. 

Have you ever tried setting intentions instead of, or in addition to, your resolutions? Intentions come from the heart, help your heart and mind come into alignment, and can help reconnect us to our mission, aspiration, and purpose (MAP).

Would you like to move into the new year in a new way? With the holiday season ending and a new year starting, there is no better time than now to get moving into a Tai Chi practice. Tai Chi can bring many gifts into your life, and you can practice it daily in just 15 minutes!

We know the Whole Health approach is successful when Veterans achieve outcomes they never even imagined.

A gentle twist incorporated into a mindful movement practice can help support the spine’s range of motion by rotating the spine and stretching the muscles of the back.

What does gratitude have to do with well-being? Those of us who make being thankful a routine part of our lives tend to be happier, have stronger relationships, and enjoy better overall health.

What does connection mean to you? Sometimes we might feel connected to other people, nature, or something else bigger than ourselves. Other times we might feel disconnected. In these times, it can be helpful to reconnect with our body and mind.

The turkey is roasting. The house is in order. The table is set. What about the guests? Being surrounded by others is one of the greatest gifts of the season.

Tai Chi offers a very gentle way to get the blood flowing and it is something you can do at home. If standing movement is not available to you, Tai Chi can also be done in a chair.

How much stress you experience is determined by how capable you believe you are at meeting the extra demands. Here is how you're stronger than you may think.
