Fitness is not the same as wellness

Have you ever stopped to think about how to determine your current fitness and wellness levels? Does your doctor ask you each time you visit if you believe yourself to be fit and well? Probably not. Nor does he likely offer you any method for determining where you’re at for yourself.

There are fitness centers everywhere, most staffed with counselors who can test your fitness level. So how is your wellness level. Are they one and the same?

The fact is, being fit and being well are totally different conditions. However, these are the two major factors determining good health.

Your wellness rating depends on your immune system, including the vitamins, supplements and nutrition you intake. It’s a fact that people who are fit can sometimes be unwell, and well people can sometimes be unfit. However, when you combine the two and use sound principles based on clean living, exercise and healthy eating, you attain a state of balance that helps you to maintain both fitness and wellness.

Many people don’t take the time to completely understand the advantages of being both fit and well. We read and absorb the information we’re given through the media and health organizations without ever questioning whether we’re receiving the information we really need, or simply what is profitable for these companies to make available.

Fitness gyms need your monthly fees in order to stay in business, so they probably have no real concern about the condition of your immune system. Physical fitness relates to condition of the body alone.

The medical profession need you to maintain their jobs. They will tell you that you need to be fit and well, but often leave out important information that affect your wellness and, therefore, your ability to stay fit.

What about diet? What about vitamins? What role does our daily intake play in our health, wellness and fitness? The fact is, diet has more influence than you have been led to believe or understand.

Our body’s ability to stay well is directly related to the nutrition you receive every day. The mind’s ability to remain well is also a direct result of our nutritional intake.

For example, the human brain doesn’t develop well without the necessary input of protein in our daily diet. No protein, no intelligence. If there is no intelligence, then none of the other states can be attained.

Spiritual input is another determining factor when establishing our wellness level. Spiritual reflection helps us to cleanse ourselves of the toxins of our daily life. Wellness is a measure of our complete stae of health, both physical and mental. It’s a condition of the whole … mind, body and soul.

So, for those who believe they are fit, it’s also important to pay attention to your wellness as well. Finding the ideal balance is the best way to achieve a long and healthy life.
