With the understanding that your wellness journey is just that, a life-long journey and awaking, these 9 Steps are the framework for perpetual growth and ever deepening understanding of our true nature and what sustains us. The ability to thrive and blossom requires balance in these 9 areas of our lives. I refer to them at the 9 Steps to represent the fluidity and growing nature of this process.
