It’s not uncommon to hear the word “wellness” multiple times a day, and there’s good reason for it.
We are marketed new ideas and ways to make wellness happen (faster). What if instead, we started to ask ourselves how to become “more well” than ever before. What is wellness, really? And beyond that, is it for me?
We want to open the doors to this conversation with you, as we get ready to open the doors to Toronto’s newest wellness landmark, trove. Here’s a little glimpse into why we’re going to the wild lengths that we are to build this wellness sanctuary smack dab in the middle of an urban center.
Let’s talk wellness, in a real way.
The wellness industry is full of products and services that promise relief and longevity. It’s easy to get distracted in the sea of solutions and feel pulled in many (often expensive) directions that may not be giving you exactly what you thought you needed.
At trove, it’s important to us that you get exactly what you need, every time. That you leave feeling nourished. That every treatment contributes to your overall state of wellbeing. And that over time, you start to live differently. Uniquely nourished + holistically cared for. Feeling recharged and ready to take on your next day, challenge or adventure.
For us, this is what wellness really is. It’s an individually tailored approach to considering what we need, each day, and taking those steps. To calm our nervous systems. To quiet the noise. To move, to stretch, to sweat, to plunge, to journal or meditate. To shift from all of the doing into more of the being. To support ourselves to truly feel well.
So what does this mean for you? While you’re the only one with that answer, we are here to guide you through a process to better understand yourself, and your needs. Because to identify how you’ll benefit from what’s on offer, it’s imperative that you know yourself first.
To help, we compiled a short list of questions that you can ask yourself to quickly and easily identify where your body, mind and soul would currently benefit from a little extra wellbeing.
Where are you currently feeling depleted?
Can you name or list the parts of you that feel less than 10/10?
Where do you experience pain in your body?
What type of pain do you carry?
Do you believe it’s possible to release this pain?
How are you feeling energetically?
Are you regularly consumed by work and the demands of your life?
Are you often fatigued?
Is your body able to truly rest?
Do you know how to restore your own energetic being?
How’s your alignment?
Does your body easily move?
Do you often feel stiff or rigid?
Do you have a fixed or growth mindset?
How often do you wake up in the morning with energy to take on the day?
These may seem like “little” questions, and compared to our intake form – they’re vague.
But here’s what we believe wellness really offers: the opportunity to become as well as we can be, through knowing ourselves first, becoming willing to get better, and finding the practitioners, services and products to help us get there.
Wellness isn’t a “one time thing” and it’s certainly not a “one size fits all” approach, though many wellness companies would have you believe otherwise. With each business trying to sell you on its own magic bullet, there’s no space to consider the best approach for YOU, the individual. Just because one service or product didn’t work for you doesn’t mean the industry doesn’t have anything to offer. It may be that YOU require a unique service to suit your body, mind and soul. And we’ve got it.
We’re not here for the ONE solution to wellness…
We’re here for the journey of facilitating your overall wellbeing.
The way you live.
The way you feel *while* you live.
The story you tell at the end.
And how energized you are while you tell it.
We know there’s more to wellness than celery juice and weight lifting. There’s a lifetime of opportunity to meet yourself where you’re at and give yourself exactly what you need.
So, is wellness for you? You tell us.
Spend some time answering the questions above and get ready to experience true wellness on another level.
Whenever you’re ready, we are here to meet you. We are here to support you on your journey to becoming truly well.
We’ll be right there to greet you when our doors open.
