Hi, I’m Eliza, one of your wellness coaches for this program. Some of you locally may know me from teaching AquaGym Fitness classes. I’m also a certified yoga instructor. For this program, I’ll be leading the mindfulness and reflection content that is sent to you on Sundays.
In anticipation of the official launch of our program tomorrow, I wanted to shared a podcast that is, in part, an inspiration for how we structured the wellness program this year. I listen to this podcast regularly and they cover a wide range of topics. One episode, called The Obesity Epidemic, was really eye opening because it talks about all the things we don’t understand about weight, wellness, body shaming, emotional eating and so on. One takeaway from the episode was this idea that there is no one wellness regime — diet, fitness, etc — that fits all. We are all different and wellness needs to be an individual journey. I shared my insights from this episode with Stephanie, the founder of this program, and she took it from there.
I encourage you to listen to the episode as well. It’s eye opening. Here are some different ways you can.
