YOUR HEALTH AUDIT RESULTS
SCORE 61 – 78: YOUR CURRENT STATE OF BEING IS THRIVING
If you score or identify with a Thriving State of Being, congratulations!
This is a natural State of Being, yet the demands of modern life have made it
fragile and rare for many of us to stay here. Strong boundaries and personal
commitment are required to maintain this level, and you are clear on what
you want and need.
How to continue to Be Well: Even though this is the optimum state we want
women to achieve, there’s still work to be done to maintain your thriving
state. It’s important to be vigilant about the messages your body sends
you, so pay attention to what it’s trying to tell you. Your body is constantly
giving you feedback: try to notice anything that feels not quite right. Some
messages like changes in the frequency and heaviness of menstrual periods,
are impossible to ignore, while others can be quite subtle.
The secret is to ‘do a little’,
before you need to ‘do a lot’.
The information in this book will offer insight and strategies to maintain this
optimal wellness state. We recommend you familiarise yourself with the
other States of Being – both Depleted and Surviving – as it is worthwhile
to be aware and mindful of the common saboteurs of wellness.
A handbook for women
Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
Women today face a dilemma. How do we juggle our busy, demanding lives and never-ending to-do lists, with the essential need for self-care? We’re overwhelmed, frustrated, exhausted and either ignoring or oblivious to the signs of burnout. It’s time for change.
In this personal yet comprehensive handbook, two of Australia’s leading voices in women’s health and wellness, integrative medicine specialist Dr Karen Coates and renowned wellness advocate Sharon Kolkka, will help you find your way back to optimal physical, mental and emotional health.
From helping you recognise and understand your current state of wellbeing – by giving you the insight to discern whether you’re thriving, surviving or depleted – Dr Karen and Sharon will guide you, step by step, through their innovative five-pillared approach to wellness and a personal health audit to empower you along your path to better energy, vitality and stress resilience.
Their advice goes beyond what you’ve heard in a regular doctor’s office. How to Be Well uncovers integrative solutions that will resonate with your unique lifestyle and motivate the short-term and long-term changes you can make to maximise wellbeing.
If you are looking to maintain your health, vitality and age gracefully, this book is for you.
If you are overtired, overstretched and over it, stressed, exhausted or feel like your life is lacking in joy, this book is for you.
No matter which stage of life you are at, How to Be Well contains the information you need to take charge of your health and wellness. It’s for all women who want to be more resilient and live a full, vital life. Every woman deserves to be well.
