The health continuum is a scale which you can measure your wellness. The endpoints show premature death and high level wellness at the other end. How can poor mental health, emotional health affect physical wellness? With poor mental health you would not feel motivated to work out or eat healthy as you would slowly give up. This then compromises your individual wellness. What I do best as a RN, National Board Certified Health Coach and Artist is create a means to support your recovery with small positive steps for lasting behavior change. I coach you to achieve your goals related to weight loss, relaxation possibly through art, greater sleep, better food choices, activities you would enjoy as this plan is created with you.
Pinwheel Wellness
An anti-inflammatory lifestyle to promote longevity. When you live this way your immune system becomes stronger. The first steps to wellness are in your own kitchen or knowing which foods on a menu to order. Inflammation is deadly. It has been shown to be associated with many chronic degenerative diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes including digestive disorders, high blood pressure, stroke, headaches, skin irritations, mood swings, depression, eczema, fibromyalgia, asthma, anxiety, weight gain, joint pain and Covid-19 to name a few.
Building your immune system is key to fight these diseases. Health does not always come from medicine. Sometimes it comes from peace of mind, love in the heart, peace in the soul. It comes from laughter and love. I offer “Eating a Rainbow” and knowing why. The most colorful fruits & veggies are also the most nutritious and tastiest. I teach people “The Art of Fruit & Veggies”. This is offered in the creative “Arts & Wellness” sessions if the client chooses.
Arts & Wellness
Pinwheel Wellness presents “Arts & Wellness”! This involves creativity, learning and achieving your own art work in many mediums as an artist. Art sessions are conducted via telecoaching, in groups or individually with a focus on “The Art of Fruit & Veggies”. Ages seven years to seniors can participate. It is important to note that beneficial effects of creating art are not dependent on a person’s skills or talent. Studies have shown that expressing yourself through art can help with depression, anxiety, cancer and improve self-esteem. This may lead to decreased medication. Art has been linked to improved memory, reasoning and resilience. Creative expression can foster healing and mental well-being. It is used to help explore emotions, cope with stress, develop self-awareness and work on social skills. We are all Artist with a caring Art instructor : )
