The Jewel of Life System: Introducing The Facet of Health & Wellbeing
This post was originally written as part of the earlier Jewel of Life framework. While the language and structure of the work has evolved, the reflections shared here still speak to themes explored within Mind, Body, Spirit, and Style. You can learn more about the current Jewel of Life framework here.
Health & Wellbeing is a main facet in The Jewel of Life System, which is all about self-care and holistic wellness.
How we feel and operate on a mental, physical and spiritual level plays a huge role in how we experience life, and the better we feel, the better life feels.
When it comes to our health and wellbeing however, the emphasis can tend to mainly be on the physical side of things. But we have to remember that health is a holistic process and in order for us to live life to the fullest all three aspects of self must be taken care of.
Unfortunately, the stresses of modern-day life can take its toll on our health and we can be so busy rushing around trying to fit everything in that we forget to make time to properly care for ourselves.
As humans we are fairly robust, and so it’s very easy for us to take our health for granted and not realise the detrimental effects of our self-neglect until it’s too late. Our health is our true wealth and without it we either cease to exist or our experience of life is greatly reduced, which is why our wellness should always be a priority in our lives.
So Goddess, how do you feel mentally, physically and spiritually? Do you nourish your mind, body and spirit enough or do you neglect them? Are you getting enough rest or are you running on empty? Do you feed yourself nutritious foods and thoughts or are you binging on junk? Do you feel blissed or are you constantly feeling stressed? Are you full of vitality or do you often feel unwell?

Explore The Core Lesson
Every facet of The Jewel of Life system has an associated Core Lesson of Self, which when honoured helps us to create true happiness and fulfilment. The core lesson of Health & Wellbeing is self-care because when we learn to care for ourselves we increase our ability to feel good and function at an optimal level.
When life is busy it can be hard to dedicate enough time to care and nurture ourselves on a regular basis. This means that we are often pushing ourselves through life whilst operating on low energy levels, which then reduces our overall wellness. However, if we were to make the time to rest and recuperate we can restore our energy to what it should be and subsequently enhance our experience of life.
Give Yourself Permission
Learning to give ourselves permission is a vital part of living the Goddess Lifestyle, so Goddess, how are you going to give yourself permission in the facet of Health & Wellbeing? How are you going to allow yourself to focus on enhancing your mental, physical and spiritual wellness? How are you going to allow yourself to prioritise your self-care?
