Wellness is the self-directed process in which one comes to realize his or her full potential in mental and physical well-being.  This consists of one's mind, body and soul.  Each contributes to the other.  A person's total wellness comes from good nutrients, physical and mental health as well as spiritual awareness. Things that hold us back from achieving wellness success include stress, time constraints, the hesitance of change, and fear of the unknown. For Wellness Success to be realized, we must overcome all that holds us back.

Eating right is important to staying at a healthy weight and keeping an energy balance, the balance between the calories in what you eat and drink, and calories you burn when moving. The same amount of ENERGY IN (calories consumed) and ENERGY OUT. (calories burned) over time = weight stays the same.
