Spiritual Wellness

In order to achieve an overall sense of well-being, the spiritual side of your life also needs to be nurtured. The frantic pace of life dictates that we must always be switched on, present and ready to go. With this in mind, note that taking time out for yourself is important. Similarly, be mindful as well. Mindfulness is a mental state achieved by focusing one’s awareness on the present moment. So, enjoy what you are doing now, try not to relive the past or fret too much about the future. What will be, will be.

Social Wellness

Making social connections is a great way to combat feeling lonely, and to become more engaged in the community around you. So have that coffee with the friend you hardly see, invite the new people in your street over for that braai you keep on promising and get the family socially active.

Emotional Wellness

Your emotions contribute greatly towards your sense of well-being. If you feel angry, sad, depressed or overwhelmed on a regular basis, it’s a good idea to step back and try to analyse why you feel that way. Make a conscious decision to focus on the positives in your life as to avoid stressful situations, practise being grateful, go out of your way to have fun, and foster the healthy relationships in your life.
It’s also important to change gear from time to time and have interests outside of work and your daily routine. Try new things, be creative and take up a hobby.

Financial Wellness

Making ends meet is always a stressful endeavour – especially when running a family and wanting to provide them with the best opportunities, nutrition and education. We understand that financial wellness is sometimes out of your hands, so we have come up with a few suggestions to help you save around the house to stretch that Rand as far as it can go! Helping you have an understanding of your financial situation and taking care of it in such a way that you are prepared for financial changes.

Mental Wellness

Engaging in mentally-stimulating and creative activities, expanding your knowledge and imparting it to others plays very big part on the journey to overall wellness.

Physical Wellness

This is making those choices to avoid harmful habits and doing things that support your physical body, health and safety.

EAT SMARTER

As a mom-on-the-go it can get a bit hectic at times to ensure that your family does not bite off more than they should chew. We get it!

That is why, we at Nestlè, did some digging and found some handy tips about serving sizes, on how to read food labels so that they make sense and ultimately help you to make informed choices about what ends up on your family’s table and in their tummies.

EAT SMARTER

MOVE MORE

Let’s face it – the more we do, the more we get done. Same rule applies to exercise. Not everyone has the time to spend hours a day at the gym, so that leaves you with an easy choice: make the most of everyday activities to get the heart-rate up. It doesn’t matter if it is at the office, around the house or on your grocery run – choose to get moving!

Find ways to be more active. Make walking the dog or that visit to the gym a regular thing. Incorporating small amounts often is just as beneficial as one long session.

LIVE BETTER

Wellness is a long game. It does not happen overnight or by going at it at 50%. You want your family to find balance and live a happy life.

This means taking care of the finances, spending time with friends and family. Making those choices that avoid harmful habits and practicing actions that support your physical body and health. It is understanding food labels and eating smarter overall. It is freeing up energy to cope with stress, spending some time on meditation/reflection. Ensuring your values and beliefs provide a sense of meaning and purpose to your life and to that of you family.
