How to Evaluate your WHOLE Health!
Many years ago I developed the Wellness Wheel Quiz for a presentation.
This past month I was asked to do another special presentation. This time for my local community here in Leander Texas. I am so excited!! My mind went immediately to the whole health Wellness Quiz from years ago. I wanted to provide something simple and easy to complete with a quick peak into what areas of your Total Wellness could use support and attention.
So, I have dusted off The Wellness Wheel Quiz and have decided to share it with you today.
The reason for that is, that we can easily go down rabbit holes as it relates to our health and completely miss the basics. We tend to see health in segments instead of pieces of a whole system. An example would be ” I am on a XYZ type Diet and it will fix my health issue” What if diet was not actually the root cause of why you are not as vibrant as you might like to be… Sure it is very important, however seeing the whole picture might provide a more perspective. This is especially true if you feel like you are ” doing all the things” and need to step back and take a birds eye view.
The whole health wellness quiz is in a nutshell all about balancing your Nervous System and therefore balancing all of you!!
I hope you find it useful. After you have taken the Quiz, you then need to set some goals and take some action steps … Unless of course you have a perfect score. LOL Perfect is actually not the point of the Quiz… It is all about finding Balance so that you feel centered, fluid just like a wheel when it goes around smoothly.
