Philosophy
The Wellness team believes in using a wide range of wellness practices and physical training as a diagnostic tool. We focus on 8 areas of wellness and just like in other types of training, we have to put things into practice to refine our processes and improve proficiency. The benefit of exposing ourselves to a broad scope of disciplines in a varied and realistic operational environment, is to strengthen and challenge our resiliency. We cannot expect to get better if we have not identified and acknowledged these areas. Just like our environmental stimulus can vary, so can we as individuals. There is no "one size fits all" approach to fitness, wellness, and nutrition. It is our intention to provide our family with as many quality resources as possible to assist them with their own process.
