from Part V - Wellness through Optimization of Work, Love, and Play
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 September 2020
Wellness is often intimidating. Pursuing it requires significant commitment and carries emotional risk/vulnerability [1]. While fear can be a strong motivator, it can also be the reason one may not try or follow-through with a plan. In most cases, fear prevents us from being able to accomplish what we wish to. In the case of wellness, we found that due to the commitment many were challenged by the fear of not being able to achieve the results and goals they had set for themselves. For example, if one was never taught, or had modeled, how to live a life full of joy, love, and wellness, they will fear a life different than what they were taught, whether by observation or directly. Occasionally it can be more difficult and painful to break a pattern than to live in it [2]. The path to wellness will likely be unique for each and every one of us.
