What is your state of wellness?
“Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance and order and rhythm and harmony.” — Thomas Merton
Welcome to “Seeds of Wellness.” I hope you find value here that will help enrich your life. My name is Edward Wallace. I have devoted my life to helping others improve the quality of their lives by encouraging people to invest time and energy into cultivating and maintaining balance in their lives.
We are living in some strange times. With all of our modern miracles in science and medicine we, as a society, are sicker now than in any time in mankind’s history. This is according to the US Health Department’s Center for Disease Control. How can this be? Something is really out of whack.
This blog is committed to raising awareness of this problem and offering solutions so that you do not become one of those statistics. Heart problems, Diabetes, allergies, Asthma, Cancer and other diseases are at almost epidemic levels.
There are many combined reasons for this sad state of our health. Pollution in the air and water, Nutrients being leached out of our foods because of the way they are processed, and on a personal level, lack of attention to proper diets and exercise.
There are many reasons for our poor health but it all comes down to personal responsibility. We are our own guardians. If we give that power over to others, be they doctors, government or any one except ourselves, we do a great disservice to ourselves.
We lead busy lives and many of us don’t seem to have time for ourselves. Society teaches us to be unselfish, so many have a difficult time accepting from others. We are told it is better to give than to receive. It is better to give than to receive, but some of that giving should be to ourselves.
It is up to each one of us to do whatever is necessary to ensure that we live the best life we can. That best life means balance in all areas, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, financial and social.
We are all creators of our lives. Most people do not believe that because their lives are not what they want them to be. The problem is most of us are too afraid to take control of our lives and make them what we want them to be because it means going against the grain and sometime against our own families. I know that to be a fact because I had to do just that.
I want this to be your blog, I am only the facilitator. I hope you will take an active part by giving me feedback. Let me know what you would like to see covered. All areas of life are open to discussion. So please leave comments on my posts. We will explore the problem and discuss possible solutions.
Remember there are as many paths in life as there are people. You are unique and only you know what is best for you. Therefore take whatever I say with a grain of salt and if it is for you use it, if not, it may be good for someone else.
Find your truth. Create the life you dream of. Lets work together to find the way.
Are you ready to take the journey with me to a better you and a better me?
