The Six Pillars

There are so many things you can do for preventive health care and management of dis-ease but we believe there are six things that need to be addressed first.  Six things, that if strengthened, can significantly improve your overall health and wellbeing.  

We fondly call these The Six Pillars of Health: Eat. Breathe. Move. Think.  Connect.  Sleep.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

Eat.  

Having a balanced diet consisting of at least 75% of whole food nutrition and supplementation.

Breathe.  

Being conscious of your breath and taking time for full, deep breathing throughout the day.

Move.  

Engaging in consistent movement including strength and interval training, functional corrective exercises and stretching. Enhancing internal movement with massage/yoga for lymph drainage and healthy blood flow to organs. 

Think.  

Thinking positively without a significant amount of mind chatter and self-sabotage.  Addressing personal lifestyle and engaging in action plans that consistently move you forward instead of hold you back.

Connect.  

Connecting to friends, family members, coworkers and other important people in your life.  Deepening connections to your most personal beliefs and values.

Sleep.  

Receiving a weekly average of 8 uninterrupted hours of sleep per day.

Despite your current state of health or fitness level if one or all of these six areas are weak or out of balance it can translate into a host of current and future symptoms. Even your medical and complementary healthcare will be far more effective with a strong foundation to start from. We know that many people cannot achieve all of the above perfectly but work with you to move you in the right direction.  Even small steps have large gains.
