Living wholeheartedly requires daily practice and attentiveness. Checking in with your heart is a way to deepen your commitment to your life, work, and purpose.
Tools for Practicing Wellness & Healing
The Weekly Oasis - To pause & Connect
Personal well-being is interconnected with communal well-being. This requires commitment and care, especially in these times. WholeHeart community welcomes you to attend to wellness and healing practices at home and in community by offering The Weekly Oasis series.
We start the week with a wellness message to your email inbox to infuse a bit of attentive care into your week. We then invite you to close the week in a community of practice with a drop-in online hour of reflection and connection. Put down your tasks and open a window for a little fresh air. Through poetry, song and reflection, we will collectively find footholds for greater personal and collective care.
The Weekly Oasis offers a taste of WholeHeart without a further demand on your time. Come when you can, bring a friend, colleague, neighbor or family member. All are welcome.
Going Forward:
We are celebrating 5 years of weekly practice and will continue after WholeHeart closes its non profit status in June 2025 ~ thanks to an engaged community of volunteers! Please join us by signing up to be on the weekly messages and invitations.
WholeHeart Wellness
The WholeHeart Wellness Model offers a way of addressing wellness in your life personally as well as wellness in your organization, your work-team, your family & community.
Each of the six chambers of the nautilus represent a different aspect of wellness. Here is a way to think of the chambers. How might you personally describe what they mean to you?
Cultural: the wide world and fabric that weaves us together
Social: our relations and connections, personal and in the web of community
Physical: our bodies and the body and beings of the earth
Intellectual: our minds, thoughts, intellect
Emotional: the flow of feelings and intuition
Grace: mystery -that which is beyond words
Don't forget the heart center! Our inner wisdom & knowing, our spark!
The beauty of the model is that its flexibility lends itself to the specific exploration you desire at any given time. The journey of wellness travels in both directions inward from externalities to inner wisdom and back out into the world. Consider focusing on a single chamber that needs attention. What commitment might you make to practice and to attend to wellness on a regular basis? Use the model personally, join us in a future Program to explore the model, or contact us to work with your team or community.
The model is intended for personal use only. If you would like to use this handout with a group please contact us first at info@wholeheartinc.org.
