Wellness is about taking responsibility, being accountable and living consciously.
Every body is unique and wellness prizes those differences. It is essential that each person learn to read and interpret the signals-both internal and external that your body is giving you all the time about what you need and want for balance, for healing and for greater vitality.

Physical contact with soil,natural waters, sunlight and fresh air is key to health and wellness.
