How do you calculate Wellness?

When it comes to feeling good, it's not always the easiest thing to calculate.

Wellness is not the easiest thing to put a value on; the way you would do, for example, if you hired a marketing consultant to come in and increase the number of interactions you have, maybe increase your mailing list from 200 people to 500 people, or how you would calculate the number of sales you have.

Because it's something that appears on the surface to be immeasurable or monetized as it were. It's the last thing you think about when you've got a big job to do. And you're pushing through and you know you've got a deadline and you work through the night or you've missed a meal. You're feeling tired, you maybe have insomnia, maybe a little bit anxious. All of those things will add up to you not being your optimum best.

But there are ways that you can measure the importance of your wellness, for example, your ability to produce a deliver a presentation with more confidence, with more ease, more energy and enthusiasm. To be able to wake up in the morning feeling energised and not exhausted, the minute you hear the alarm go off; to have enough energy to run around with your children, to have enough energy at the end of the week, to be able to enjoy some time with family and friends. Just to be able to do something fun for yourself on the weekend, without feeling like the week was so exhausting. Or feeling anxious about what is left unfinished and or your body's fatigued, and all you want to do is sleep.

But having an improvement in wellness means being able to go through the week with the energy and focus you need. Having the energy to spend your weekend exactly how you want to. And not wishing your week away. It's in your having the ability to think clearly, when presented with a challenge in the workplace, or at home, or anywhere that you are required to perform, to be at your best.

It's having a roomful of executives interacting in a confident manner, being courteous and respectful to each other; actually allowing each other to speak and seeing them bonding, relaxed and confident in themselves. So they know they it's ok to be their authentic selves. They don't have to try and show they're the best in the room because they're so comfortable and settled in their own skin, that they know that every single person is in the room based on their abilities, based on their values, and based on what they can bring to the team.

I mentioned not being able to calculate business wise but if you have a salesperson who is confident in themselves doing really good work, and is fit and healthy, and takes care of themselves and is nice and relaxed. Then it's shown in the improvement in the number of sales they make. from a place of absolute ease and confidence and not desperation and fear and anxiety.

What I do is peel away the layers so that regardless of your job title, regardless of who you are on the outside, the inside is stable, confident, relaxed, no matter what's going on around so that no matter what life throws your way, you are able to handle it. The dexterity of Serena Williams on the tennis court or the ease of effortless effort. A prima ballerina doing a parallel set in the middle of a stage. Or the dexterity of a mountain goat, walking up the side of a very steep hill can make it look very easy. Look within for your peace not without.
