Wellness Inventory

Healing Touch




Did you know that a high degree of wellness is considered the foundation of a successful life - at home and work? Wellness is defined as a healthy balance of the mind, body and spirit that results in an overall feeling of well-being. Wellness programs allow individuals to take increased responsibility for their health behaviors. Some benefits include increased happiness, more energy, improved fitness, weight reduction, stress management, improved nutrition and reduced dependence on medications - all of which work to promote an optimal state of health and overall wellbeing. This paves the way for more success to attract in - both personally and professionally.

Wellness Coaching
Wellness coaching can be the cornerstone of protecting your most important asset - your health and wellbeing. In the process of wellness coaching, you will discover the way to optimal vitality by learning about lifestyle choices that impact health, longevity and wellness on three levels - mental, physical and spiritual, thus connecting you to a wealth of inner peace and physical health that is your natural state. With this comes clarity and direction, which enable you to move more easily and effortlessly toward your personal dreams and goals with the mindset to sustain wellness.

Behavioral scientists have shown that one-on-one coaching is among the most effective approaches to helping people make and sustain improvements in their lives. Having a coach is particularly powerful when a client has decided to fully commit to making significant behavioral changes.

Through assessments, open and honest dialogue, problem-solving and goal-setting, a wellness coach works to identify your personal vision and establish health priorities in one or more areas usually including fitness, weight, nutrition, stress management and self-limiting beliefs and behaviors. Clients typically feel accountable to themselves and their coaches, honoring their commitments to reaching their goals and accomplishing more than they believed possible when they began.

Assessments: Wellness Inventory & Personal Wellness Plan
The Wellness Inventory is a "whole person" assessment and lifestyle program designed to help you gain personal insight into your state of physical, emotional and spiritual wellness. The program offers guidance and tools to transform this new awareness into lasting changes in your life, and a renewed sense of health and wellbeing. This program can be tailored for small or large companies, as well as individuals who are being coached.

Corporate Wellness Programs
Workplace wellness programs are recognized for their value in improving health and well-being of employees. They are usually sponsored by the company's human resources or health and safety program. These wellness programs are designed to improve employee morale, loyalty, efficiency, productivity, employee relations and reputation in the community. Wellness programs have proved to reduce absenteeism, and health care and insurance costs. B.Better can put together a customized wellness program, including coaching, assessments and a variety of services, together with its wellness partners.

This is a small group workshop that is designed to examine your state of wellness with a personalized wellness program that brings a renewed sense of health and wellbeing.

Coaching provides guidance and tools that transform this new awareness into lasting changes in your life and magnificent vitality in your future.

Healing Touch
Healing Touch is a holistic energy therapy that uses gentle non-invasive touch to clear, energize and balance the human energy field, allowing restoration of the client's self-healing process of becoming whole in body, mind and spirit. Healing Touch may be used to reduce stress and anxiety, relieve pain, ease chronic fatigue or accelerate healing and prevent illness. Healing Touch also complements conventional health care and is currently recognized and available at Mayo Clinic Hospital, Abbott-Northwestern and Woodwinds Hospital.

Yogilates
Want a workout that eases your mind while challenging your body? Experience increased flexibility, strength, balance and stress reduction through a customized yogilates program. Whether you want to strengthen an area weakened by injury or to integrate the benefits of yoga and pilates into your fitness regimen, yogilates allows you to regain your natural agility, flexibility and coordination - all of which works toward optimal health and longevity AND provides insurance against injuries in the future.

Influenced by yoga, pilates and physical therapy techniques, yogilates can be adapted therapeutically for each person's unique body history and individual needs. While yoga generates body awareness, endurance, flexibility and versatility from the various postures, Pilates matwork creates real core strength, precise alignment and muscular coordination throughout your range of motion. Available as private or group in-home sessions, or as group classes at The Breathing Room in Wayzata.
