Standing True to One's Values and Principles

Michael Wuehler joins Suzanne to talk about spiritual wellness, featured this month as part of the Vitality Revolution podcast series sponsored by Humana. The University of Colorado, when defining their 8 foundational principles of wellness, says spiritual wellness has to do with your own sense of well-being, commitment to your morals and ethics, and who you are as an individual. In other words, know thyself, and stand true to your values and principles. This can include your faith. Michael Wuehler is a retired United Methodist minister with 30 years of experience in the parish ministry, helping many families work through so life challenges and circumstances. He's the author of Spirit Calling: Listening to God Within You. Often we go about our day-to-day lives doing rather than being centered. Michael says, "Most people practice their spirituality for an hour, or 45 minutes, during a worship service, and that's about it. But there's so much more out there, and the local church is just the practice of spirituality, and one minor focus. Spirituality s who you are. We are mind, body, and spirit. We notice the body, we feel things, we touch things, we respond to physical things. We think a lot — most of us have monkey minds, and we think all over the place, and we think too much, that's an ongoing concern with the younger generation. They tend to overthink. But we also have a tendency to leave out the spiritual part, and it's all three portions together that make us who we are."
