The Importance of Whole Health: Embrace a Holistic Approach to Wellness
When it comes to our health, most of us tend to focus on one thing: losing weight. We obsess over the number on the scale and go to great lengths to shed those extra pounds. But what if we told you that there's a better way? What if we told you that focusing on creating an overall lifestyle, or whole health, is more important than focusing solely on weight loss?

The Importance of Whole Health
When it comes to our health, most of us tend to focus on one thing: losing weight. We obsess over the number on the scale and go to great lengths to shed those extra pounds. But what if we told you that there's a better way? What if we told you that focusing on creating an overall lifestyle, or whole health, is more important than focusing solely on weight loss?
Wait… did I read that right? We’re here to tell you yes, yes you did.
What is Whole Health?
Whole health means taking a holistic approach to your overall well-being. It's about looking at all aspects of your life – physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual – and finding ways (big or small) to improve them. This includes things like eating healthy foods, getting enough sleep, managing stress levels, staying active, and nurturing relationships (just to name a few 😉).
Where Should I Start?

Why Does Whole Health Matter?
Focusing solely on weight loss can be detrimental to our overall health. When we become fixated on the number on the scale, we often resort to extreme measures such as crash diets or excessive exercise routines. These methods may work in the short term but can be harmful in the long run.
On the other hand, when we focus on whole health, we make sustainable changes that benefit us for years to come. By prioritizing healthy eating habits and regular exercise, for example, we not only lose weight but also reduce our risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes.
What Does Whole Health Entail?
Whole health entails making small but meaningful changes in all areas of your life. Here are some examples:
- Eating Healthy Foods: Focus on consuming nutrient-dense foods such as fruits and vegetables while limiting processed foods and added sugars.
- Staying Active: Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine by taking walks or doing yoga. This is where the Truvy Fit app can really come in handy!
- Managing Stress Levels: Find healthy ways to manage stress such as meditation or journaling.
- Getting Enough Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night to allow your body time to rest and recover. (psst have you checked out our Calm Gummies™?)
- Nurturing Relationships: Cultivate positive relationships with family and friends by spending quality time with them regularly.
To Sum it Up
When it comes down to it, whole health is about taking care of yourself in every aspect of your life – physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually – rather than just focusing on one area like weight loss alone. By adopting a whole-health mindset instead of obsessing over numbers on a scale or counting calories alone; you will find that you feel happier and healthier overall.
Here’s to shifting our focus from weight loss goals alone towards creating an overall healthy lifestyle where every aspect contributes towards our well-being!
