Wellness to Willness

I've had several conversations this week in which the topic of wellness came up. Its a term that's been around for a couple of decades now and frankly its not gotten much traction in either therapy or training. Kind of a ho-hum thing...


Some of the most significant health issues today are related to lifestyle disease - you know... obesity, diabetes, and heart disease to name just a few. 


I'll suggest that today its less about wellness than it is about willness. The challenge is to advocate, educate, and provoke. Wellness comes only after willingness! Wellness is a matter of will, willingness, and willfulness. 


Willness is three dimensional - mind, body, and spirit. Perhaps its time for a new vocabulary to go along with new attitudes, behaviors, and health.


All the Best!
