Wouldn’t it be awesome if we could just get healthy — physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually — just once? Attain the perfect level of health, wellness, and wellbeing, and be done? Wouldn’t that rock?

Yes. But it cannot be. Because change is inevitable.

When we attain optimum health, wellness, and wellbeing — on any level — it’s not that it’s fleeting. It’s just that it requires ongoing energy, work, and focus.

Because we change — health, wellness, and wellbeing are ongoing, ever-changing programs. But it’s easy to forget and neglect this. And as such — easy to get stuck.

The impact of inevitable change

What it takes to get and be healthy in your 20s is quite different from what it takes in your 40s. That’s because as we get older our physiology changes.

Metabolisms shift. Allergens differ. Tastes change. All of these will impact the effect of diet and exercise on the body.

Unless you have magically found a way to live in a bubble and never go out into the world…
