Since I was in graduate school back in the late 90's I have heard about various Wellness programs. Most of these are terrific and I have no distain for any of them - well most of them, although some of the supplement based ones are selling "cures" that don't hold up to real scrutiny. But these others are more or less good for what they are selling, but, what they are selling is wellness from with out. In other words they are selling the idea that wellness come via outside in treatments such as exercise, nutrition, medical and non medical treatments, supplements and other ideas that ask you to do something, take something, have something removed or change your behavior in some way. But almost none of these program asks you to think differently, change your values, evaluate your mindset or ask you to do anything psychological such as changing yourself from the inside out.
This of course is the medical model and it's been around for a long time and has strong pedigree. Even psychiatry and psychotherapy is based on the medical model but after twenty plus years in private practice, I find that most people will be helped more with the inside out model of developing wellness. Sitting and picking at their wounds and attempting to heal themselves, I have found that those who begin a program of personal change in ow they think and feel will begin to heal in a spontaneous and natural way.
Therefore I have developed some new programs for people to begin this process. I will do this via Skype, with on line programs and seminars. This is an international practice for any one whos is an English speaking person. I will post this blog each Tuesday and create YouTube videos each week to go along with the blog. I am calling my new work New Visons - A Wellness With In Consultancy. This new work is what Abraham Maslow called Self Actualization, which to me means living an authentic life of meaning and purpose.
I work in the following areas:
Psychological Wellness
Relationship Wellness
Career Wellness
