Sustainability is not just about tools and techniques ‘out there’ in our homes or community. Sustainability starts with our own individual health and wellness. The inner strength that we develop by healthy living and inspirational practices helps us then better manifest positive outward good works in the world around us. When it comes to your health – who is in charge? YOU are. But our own health is often a natural resource we too easily overlook.
Health and Wellness is a cornerstone of Sustainability. It is also evidence of a value system that holds the compassion to strive for wellness as a community goal. In Hawaii, we face an even greater challenge when it comes to the overall island population’s well-being due to heightened rates of diabetes, heart problems, environmental respiratory and thyroid challenges, and dietary-triggered obesity.
Give Yourself the Gift of better health and wellness. One Island is offering in person and online workshops to help identify and address the health challenges we each may face. From sprouting living foods, to enjoying fermented products, to practicing yoga or receiving a massage, we have many self-care options all around us and that we can do for ourselves. We also host the One Island Wellness Day each spring and the Green Living Celebration each fall. These are all great opportunities to discover practices, products, and practitioners that can help us reach our health improvement goals.
