Giving the Gift of Wellness for the Holidays

Book a Wellness Conversation and have Family and Friends attend for the Holidays! Don’t delay, only a few dates left.

Ever wondered what would happen if we practiced giving the gift of wellness for the holidays? Employers who give their employees’ wellness and health packages are not just showing appreciation, they are investing in their employees’ wellness; helping them access resources that will ensure their employment life cycle is well maintained. This year, our company is joining with other organizations to ensure that they have a wider range of services and selections to promote health and wellness with their employees. We have a range of gift certificates at various prices for a range of services including Wellness assessment and plans, Wellness coaching packages and Wellness Conversations.

December and January are very high stressed months for employees and their families. Many people get sick and hospitalized and yes some even die of stress related diseases because they unable to cope with their life stress plus the stress of the holiday activities. Last year someone I cared for had a terrible stroke due to stress and someone I loved passed away a few January’s ago. This time of year often reminds me of warmth, hugs, smiles and good cheer but many of my clients share with me that they dread this time of year. They hate spending time with relatives that are unpleasant, fighting or just not getting along. That is why am offering Wellness Conversations for families and friends to get together and talk about the 8 pillars of wellness and how they can support each other in maintaining their capacity for wellness.

Wellness Conversations are an engaging dialogue about what makes up wellness in all our lives. It is a very interactive dialogue that touches on all the 8 life dimensions and incorporates the Interpersonal Wellness Quotient (IWQ) personal wellness assessment instrument to help friends and family members assess their own wellness capacity and get their current wellness profile. They then become engaged in a facilitated dialogue about supporting each other to develop their wellness in each of the 8 wellness dimensions. Family and friends then develop a buddy system to help support (no nagging allowed) each other as they each work to improve their wellness and overall IWQ.

If you have employees who have been complaining about family members or friends whom they are concerned about this past year, get them a wellness conversation. If you have family and friends whom you worried about their health or who have bad habits, this is a healthy none threatening way to introduce them to a more comprehensive wellness conversation that is facilitated in a non-threatening, and non- judgmental way.

Hi, I’m Joyce Odidison and I believe that wellness is the key to a great life, vitality and excellence. Here is my story. Three years into my mediation practice, a client got so distraught while in a mediation session, he had a heart attack in my office. He survived. However, this was a turning point in my career and led me to make the connection between our personal wellness and our interpersonal lives. As a result I created the Pre-Mediation Model, a coaching process to help clients prepare for success prior to mediation. Later, I created the Interpersonal Wellness System model and the Interpersonal Wellness Quotient (IWQ) Personal Assessment Instrument to help clients identify and improve their capacity for wellness in all areas of their lives.  Unlike others who just facilitate or coach, I am well known for the quality and integrity of my work as outlined in the innovation systems and models I create and teach. Over the last five years I have created the Interpersonal Wellness Coach training program and I continue to train and mentor coaches in this program with the help of some super coaches. In my own practice, I help entrepreneurs, leaders, employees and their organizations attain fast sustainable results. I would love to support you to live well in all life dimensions as you strive to…….

 


Wellness What Does it Mean to You?

Wellness is the key to great health, vitality, joy, success, abundance and the results of staying focused on your goals; living in alignment with your values and knowing who you are and most importantly, who you want to become. All those who desire to live in alignment with their values and have a purpose statement that they can clearly articulate are indeed on their way toward creating a sustainable system of wellness. Wellness is a whole system approach to life. There is no wellness without a commitment to values. Values give our lives purpose and meaning and it allows us to pay attention to who we are and what we are manifesting in our lives and what we are contributing to the world.

What is your definition of Wellness? Please share your concept of wellness with us.

Maintaining Physical Wellness

Well the snow is here and we are all tempted to go to bed a bit earlier and wake up a little later. Whether you are an early riser or a late night owl, fall and winter weather requires us to rest more. Our bodies are adjusting to colder weather and shorter days and most of us are retaliating by going on with our lives as usual. Weather you can slow down and have shorter days or not, it is important that we respect our body needs so that we have the energy and vitality necessary to maintain our wellness. Did I mention working out? Oh yes, we do need to keep active in the fall and winter also, even if we don’t feel like it. The trick is to find a process that works for you and something you can sustain. Remember, if your wellness in one dimension goes down it will impact your wellness in all the other dimensions. Down is not where you want to be headed because you have worked so hard to keep yourself well all year, why give up now? Here is what I am doing this fall and winter to maintain my physical wellness and stay alert and revitalized.

Raw Soups to Boost Physical Wellness

Most of you know that I am a lover of soup. I was looking for a way to stay more alert and keep my body vital over the fall and winter months and I discovered that I quite liked raw soup. Now don’t laugh, raw soup is actually very delicious, convenient and easy to prepare. If you have a blender at home then you can make raw soup as often as you need. All it calls for is 2 cups of your favorite vegetables with some salt, garlic and onions and I put a quarter teaspoon of honey in one to two cups of water and I have enough soup for two meals. I could eat soup everyday but since I’m the only one who eats soup at my house, this meant that I would be stuck eating an entire pot of the same soup for several days. Since I started making raw soup, I have not had to make a huge pot of soup and I can change my soup flavor each day if I wish. Now that the snow is here, you may want to use warm water as the base of your soup. If you are taking your soup to work then you can put it in the microwave for thirty seconds to remove the chill. The benefits of raw soup are immense, you get all that nutrients and freshness right into your system and I must say I am so much more alert and my thinking somehow feels clearer. I am now a raw soup fan.

I can’t wait to hear your favorite raw soup recipes. The trick is to start small with the vegetables you already like and work your way up to new and different vegetables. Happy Eating!
