Show Notes
Jenna Kuhlen is the founder and owner of The Wellness Body & Spa in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Jenna has over 25 years experience helping people find, develop and enhance their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual potential and balance. For Jenna, to be well one has to consider the mind, body and spirit and it’s not what you eat or how you exercise. The three areas have to be worked on together. Having practices to enhance well being shouldn’t be looked at as another task on your list. It should be enjoyable part of your day; a time for you to spend on yourself. “A lot of the times people are becoming so structured (and) we want to control every part of our lives.” Jenna says we have to tap into ourselves and find the joy of what we are doing. If you don’t enjoy going to the gym five days a week, then do something different. She notes that there are markers that can measure how we feel. Some of Jenna’s clients know from measuring their markers that they need to do three things a day to get them to that space that they want to be. This can as simple as having a hot bath, meditation session or exercising, just to be in tune with yourself. One of the biggest concepts that she helps her clients with is not being selfish but being self-full. Do for yourself what is needed to avoid feeling empty inside. Jenna says moms are notorious for not taking that time to be self-full. By also being a personal trainer, Jenna has seen over and over people coming to the gym and saying, “I have to get this workout in, I have to do it for an hour and a half” and when she asks if they enjoy it, most people say, “No”. She advises you allow yourself to do something that makes you smile or laugh; something that gives you an emotional and mental break. “Allow yourself to have the flexibility to do something outside-of-the-box.” Many clients that come to Jenna are stressed and tired or overwhelmed. She says she helps her clients learn to let out their problems. They can do this by talking to a friend, but don’t let the problem or issues fester inside. By doing this, it is easier to reset your mind. To listen on Itunes & subscribe to The Wellness Show
