So, what is

Wellness Science?

The state of your health is not shaped solely by your genetic make-up. In fact, genetics accounts for only about 50%.

The other 50% depends on lifestyle and environmental factors.

So even if every woman in your family struggles with being overweight or all of your siblings have high cholesterol, it doesn’t mean that YOU have to!

A personalized wellness plan will help you:

Learn to stress less
Establish health eating behaviors that stick
Find ways to make fitness fun
Prioritize the relationships that matter most
Realize your role in your environment

What components make up this formula?

Genes

The instructions for making you are encoded in your DNA. DNA is organized into chromosomes. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes that we inherit from our parents. Chromosomes are further organized into genes. Genes tell your cells how to function, which is why you may have your “mom’s” curves or your “dad’s” high blood pressure.

Lifestyle

Your eating habits, sleep schedule, job demands, and the amount of exercise you get are all part of your lifestyle. The more you take care of yourself & nourish your body, the happier & healthier you will be. The good news? You have control over changes to your lifestyle. Even small changes can determine whether or not you develop a chronic condition such as heart disease.

Environment

Where you live, the air you breathe, and the relationships you have are all part of your environment. If you breathe poor quality air and have stressful relationships, your overall wellness is compromised. Like our lifestyle habits, our environment is something we can control. Living in harmony with our environment promotes balance, good health, & happiness.
