Speaker 1 (00:00):
What up motives?
It's your girl Tone Motivate,back with another episode of
Shades of Tone.
So today I would like todiscuss spirituality and
wellness and finding harmonywithin yourself.
Now.
We can never obtain peace inthe outer world until we make
peace with ourselves, and that'sby the Dalai Lama, and I

(00:24):
strongly agree with that.
So let's touch on defining thespirituality and wellness.
When we think of wellness, manyof us jump straight to physical
health exercise, nutrition,sleep.
But what about our spiritualwellness?
What does it mean to truly feelat peace within ourselves?

(00:46):
Spirituality doesn't have tomean religion.
It can be about connecting withsomething greater than yourself
, whether that's nature, a senseof purpose or inner peace.
It's a personal journey uniqueto each of us.
Wellness is more than justhitting the gym.

(01:08):
It's mental, emotional andspiritual.
It's about creating harmony inall aspects of your being.
So let's understand ourspiritual journey, because each
one of us has a different route,route or way to get there,
depending on who we are.

(01:29):
So I used to think thatspirituality meant attending a
weekly service or followingcertain rituals.
It took me a while to realizethat spirituality is a deeply
personal path that can benurtured in countless ways.
I realized it was therelationship I had with my
higher self, not just religion.

(01:50):
It was me getting back to andstarting things that fed me.
For me, it was journaling,avoiding distractions and simply
spending more time with myselfto get to know myself on a
deeper level.
I want you to reflect on yourown understanding of

(02:12):
spirituality.
When you think about your ownspirituality, what comes to mind
?
Is it tied to a belief system,or is it more about the sense of
peace and connection you feelin certain moments?
Explore and don't expect.
Your spiritual journey doesn'thave to look like anyone else's.

(02:33):
It's about discovering whatresonates with your soul, not
what society says is right.
How do you feel when yourspiritual life is out of balance
?
What happens when you ignorethat part of yourself?
Mental, emotional and physicalwellness are interconnected with

(02:55):
spirituality.
When we neglect our spiritualside, it can manifest physically
as stress, fatigue or evenillness.
Our bodies, minds and spiritsare all linked.
Here are a few examples of howintegrating spirituality can
boost overall wellness.

(03:16):
When you meditate, journal orspend time in nature, you're not
just relaxing, you're nurturingyour soul.
And when your spirit feelsbalanced, you experience a sense
of calm that ripples into everypart of your soul.
