Mindfulness

Self-awareness is your center. You take the time to listen and learn so that you may know yourself and live according to your truth.

What you know Transforms how you live.

How do you approach being a lifelong student of self? What are your current lessons?

Balance

Being alive is a sensitive act. Rather than keeping your emotions in check, you check in with your emotions to remain steadfast.

This is your courtesy check-in.

How do you feel about yourself, and how do you tend to those thoughts and emotions?

Vessel

You only get one body for the journey. It’s not about a specific look or type; it’s about the intentional care required to show up as your best self.

Most of communication is non-verbal.

When and how do you listen to your body? Do you get enough rest? How frequently do you move your body?

Community

You can’t do it all by yourself. You have a village that knows how to receive you; one you can spill tea with and fill each other’s cups.

Reciprocity is verb.

Which relationships mirror an accurate reflection of you?

Nature

You are from the Earth and you tap into it to find healing and renewal in the abundant arms of mother nature.

The world is busy, but you are a natural being.

Where do you go to take root, to feel inspired and reconnect with abundance?

Ritual

There are specific steps you take when you need direction and alignment across all tenets. These are practices and paths that return you back to the center.

What unique series of actions bring you back to yourself? What is your self-care journey?

Reclaiming Wellness

The Future of Community Health

Reclaiming Wellness begins with connecting inwardly - mind, body & soul and committing ourselves to transformative self-care.

But true wellness is more than just personal health, it is interconnected with community and the environments surrounding us. When we nurture ourselves and our individual wellbeing, we undeniably expand our determination, impact, and dedication to each other.

When we are well, we educate future generations, we advocate for our neighbors, and we empower others to join us. When we are well, we invigorate holistic change in our communities. Join us as we continue to reclaim wellness in February & beyond.
