The Seven
Why choose Mind Body Seven
The “seven” in our practice name represents a guiding principle that all our practitioners share – the path to mental wellness lies in addressing seven areas of life that are essential to your well-being.
Big Picture
It takes a lot of effort to get your health and life on track, so the first step is to get to a good mindset. You need a good attitude to get back up after you stumble or fall.
Food
Food is medicine, and food can be poison, too. Developing a way of eating that you believe in, that works for your mind and body, and that you find sustainable is essential for health and wellbeing.
Lifestyle
Sleep, exercise, and daily routine and structure are three key components of lifestyle. Without good sleep and sufficient exercise, it will be hard to feel well and be well.
Health
We are learning more and more about how the health of our body affects our mental health. Chronic inflammation is one of the fundamental mechanisms through which body issues impact our minds.
Emotions
With knowledge and skill, we can get better at navigating emotions. We can cultivate positive emotional states, develop resilience, and accept negative emotions.
Work and School
Your professional life impacts your personal life—and your mental health. Are there patterns that keep you stuck or unhappy at work? Do you get to use your strengths at work?
Love and Relationships
Loving yourself and developing a consistent attitude of self-compassion is the first step. On that foundation of self-love, we can then build safe, secure, supportive, and nurturing relationships.
