Holistic Health is actually an approach to life. Rather than focusing on illness or specific parts of the body, this ancient approach to health considers the whole person and how he or she interacts with his or her environment. It emphasizes the connection of mind, body, and spirit.

Mind, Body, Spirit ~ what does that really mean?

Mind, Body, Spirit seem to be new buzz words in today’s mainstream media regarding alternative health and wellness. What does this exactly mean? When we talk about whole body wellness, we know that each component affects the other…for instance, have you ever been under stress and as a result you ended up with a headache or Migraine? The stress (mental/mind) is affecting your body (aka, headache). Or, have you ever had a time of chronic pain and it puts you into a bad mood? That’s your pain (body) affecting your mood (mental/spiritual). Make sense?

At Healthy You, we look at the whole body! Say you are having an ”xyz” problem; we don’t just look at the problem. We explore all areas of the body system, mind, (mental and emotional), body and spirit. Is your nutrition (body) affecting your mood? Is your mood/stress (mind) causing your blood pressure to rise? Another thing, people don’t realize is that there is a connection with our belief systems and our health? Our belief systems are deeply rooted in our cultures, no matter where you’re from. Often times, if there is no belief system, there is likely to be more depression or feelings of hopelessness. Alternatively, with belief systems, in times of emotional stress or loss of loved ones, it becomes easier to cope with life, thereby having a healthier mind, body, spirit.

We have many therapies and tools to help you in all areas of mind, body and spirit! Every day we are given a fresh canvas, what will you paint on yours today?!
