The Center of the Circle
You, at the center
Everything in the Circle of Health surrounds one person: you. Before we look at any single area of self-care, we want to know what matters most to you.
What matters most to you in your life and your health right now?
01
Self-Care · Physical Activity
Moving the Body
Movement that builds strength, energy, and flexibility — walking, stretching, sport, dance, or anything that gets you going.
What does movement look like in your life today, and what helps or gets in the way?
02
Self-Care · Sleep & Rest
Recharge
The quality and consistency of your rest — sleep, naps, downtime, and how restored you feel.
Describe your sleep and rest lately — what helps you recharge, what disrupts it?
03
Self-Care · Nourishment
Food & Drink
How you fuel your body — what, when, and how you eat and drink, and your relationship with food.
How would you describe your eating habits and your relationship with food right now?
04
Self-Care · Growth & Purpose
Personal Development
Growth, learning, work, and finding purpose — the pursuits that stretch and fulfill you.
What's something you're working toward, learning, or hoping to grow in?
05
Self-Care · Connection
Family, Friends & Coworkers
The people in your life — how connected, supported, and understood you feel.
Who do you lean on, and how connected do you feel to the people around you?
06
Self-Care · Meaning
Spirit & Soul
Whatever gives your life meaning — faith, values, nature, purpose, or a connection to something bigger than yourself.
What gives your life meaning, or where do you find a sense of peace?
07
Self-Care · Environment
Surroundings
The safety, comfort, and order of your home, workplace, and community spaces.
How do your everyday surroundings support you — or drain you?
08
Self-Care · Mind & Emotions
Power of the Mind
How you manage stress, thoughts, and emotions — and the tools you use to stay grounded.
How are you managing stress and emotions these days?
