After completing the Meeting Aesclepius meditative practices this week I felt very peaceful. With this week being the holidays, it was a little challenging to relax. Once I got into the meditative practice my mind and spirit were both calmer. My psychological and spiritual wellness have both been fostered by both the mindfulness and meditation exercises. I’m a lot happier. Small things that I use to worry about I no long do. My mind and heart are more open to accepting people the way they are. I will continue to apply these practices in my life to foster greater health and wellness.
The saying “One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself” I think is an accurate statement. As a health and wellness professional it is important to live the lifestyle that you teach. I think it would be hard for a client to respect a professional if the professional is tell the client to kind and respectful, but they are not themselves. Yes, I believe as a health and wellness professional you do have the obligations to your clients to be developing your health psychologically, physically, and spiritually. If you are going to tell someone to life a healthy lifestyle you should want to live a healthy lifestyle as well. Your clients look up you and they respect you, so if they are coming to you for help it is important to demonstrate that kind of healthy lifestyle in your life.
