| Introduction: A time for contemplation is always special. Perhaps in our lives, we do not take time enough for contemplation as the quieter moments seem to be filled with rapid thoughts of worry, doubt, regrets, and irritation. But taking quiet moments like the Dawn Service, or going for a walk in nature, can give us some calming moments to allow insights and answers to rise from our intuitive wisdom and give us the guidance and direction we seek. The Mind Body connection is an incredible area of wellbeing. When the mind is out of control, especially if the thoughts are negative, the impact on the health of the body can be significant. So today, a few thoughts on Mind/Body Health. |

You may remember Jessica as I showcased her book in this bulletin not too long ago. You can see here post here, and then follow the link to the research. |
| The Wellbeing of Leaders |
| Further this past week, another friend and colleague from The Global Wellness Institute, Renee Moorfield, published the results of her company’s comprehensive study into the health and wellbeing of Leaders in the Wellbeing Industry. I guess it has relevance to most industries, and definitely to yourself. You can see her LinkedIn Post here which will take you to the report. |

| Cancer Recovery and Return to Work |
| Stay tuned. At the Global wellness Institute, we will be organizing a recorded conversation around the subject of “Returning to work following Cancer Diagnosis, or Cancer Treatment”. This is a challenging time for a person and our program is designed to help employers and managers learn how to be the most supportive for the employee as they begin their journey back into pre-illness life. |
| A New Poster Coming – Building Natural Immunity We have a new poster in production. This one teaches your people how to go about developing a strong personal immune system. It is laid out like the main care poster, with each panel describing something that can be done to improve immunity, for example, Vitamin D supplementation. Within the panel there is a QR Code. When you scan the code, it opens a video with a Doctor of Integrative Medicine giving more instruction about that particular area of building immunity. Stay tuned…. |
