Wellbeing and The place for Disciplined Practice

You get what you practice!

Unfortunately many of us are living by default and come into our later years having unconsciously practised drinking too much beer and eating too much junk food.

And those are just the obvious.

In our constantly connected lives today we accumulate spiritual and psychological flab as certainly as we do physical 'extra'.

Innate doesn't mean 'take for granted

Wellbeing may be our birthright, as is health, but unless we cultivate it and pay attention to what we are doing with our lives it can easily get covered over.

So I would advocate thoughtful practice of what is important to you. Of course what is important to someone is a very individual matter and the old Lifecoach exercise the wheel of life can be a useful method for deciding what priorities you have for your situation.

Here is an example of the wheel of Life. I do not own the copyright to this image and have included a link to the source which also gives you more information about this useful exercise.
