Unless we are grateful for our perceived challenges and see how they have served us, linking them to our own unique values as well as the seven areas of life, they will continue to run us emotionally and physically until we finally get the message! We also have six human needs. Four are needs of the personality (certainty, uncertainty, connection/”love”, and significance. The other two are spiritual needs (growth and contribution). The question is, are you meeting them by externally sourcing or by internally sourcing? Please note if you’re looking outside yourself to get your needs met and you get three of them filled by so doing, then it will lead to addiction. Addiction to the behaviours and habits you are doing to meet them. For example, are you looking to feel “significant” (unique and special) by owning the best house, car, designer handbag etc rather than feeling and knowing you are already significant because the human body is amazing! Are you looking for certainty (security, safety and comfort) through external things such as money and/or a house or by being certain in yourself with a high level of self esteem and confidence? What stresses, anxieties and conflicts do you feel you are currently facing? Looming deadlines, juggling work and family, unreasonable managers, ill health in self and/or aging parents, threat of redundancy or actual job loss, relationship issues? Stress and mental health problems are now one of the main causes of workplace absenteeism and if the impact on the economy is damaging, the effect on the individual can be devastating. Unless we learn how to balance our emotions and see how everything that is happening is helping us “on the way” rather than “in the way”, we will continually recreate the same situations. Emotions, wellbeing and gratitude also go hand-in-hand. Being grateful for what you already DO have in your life. If you’re not grateful for what you already have – why would the universe want to give you anything else? In the workplace how many employees actually appreciate and are grateful for their jobs, and does the company really appreciate them? When employees feel valued – they are inspired, Whenever they aren’t it weighs the company down and costs them their life and health because anyone doing something they don’t love is affecting their physiology and creating symptoms and disease, which also have a knock-on effect with relationships.
In conclusion, your beliefs, definitions of self, others and how you see the world, and your words and the language you use all create your reality. Your body is also “talking”. Are you listening?

Another way to ensuring maximum wellbeing is to be empowered in the fundamentals of living health. What is the most important thing to know about health? Most people think it is diet. What if I asked you, however : “How long can you live without food?.... How long can you live without water?.. How long can you live without oxygen?!” Oxygen is the source of all energy in the body. If someone is feeling tired – more often than not it’s because there is not enough oxygen being pumped around the body. Physical movement and exercise would help in addition to “mindfulness”. Mindfulness is where we can benefit from learning to cultivate a focused, non-judgmental awareness on the present moment particularly in our busy modern lifestyles that are often characterised by stress, sleep deprivation, multi-tasking and digital distraction.
