How to Maintain Sustainable & Pleasurable Wellness: The Healthy Hedonist

Jill Cruz, MS and Certified Nutrition Specialist explains how true holistic wellness cannot be achieved if you’re not happy.

Plus: Are you feeling stiffness and tension from bad posture and stress? It may not be coming from your muscles.

Elizabeth Pongo guides you through step-by-step instruction to remove stiffness and pain in your body.

“Conscious living is really about understanding yourself,” says Jill Cruz, MS and Certified Nutrition Specialist.

Growing up, Jill Cruz had the best of both worlds. While she would primarily eat healthy whole foods from her mother’s garden, she would also indulge in pasta and other treats at her grandmother’s house on the weekends.

It wasn’t until Jill developed an unhealthy eating habit in adulthood that she really became passionate about educating others on how to maintain sustainable but pleasurable wellness.

When it comes to wellness, many people are hyper-focused on working out and eating healthy all the time. While it is necessary to do these things to lose weight, Jill explains that true holistic wellness cannot be achieved if you’re not happy. Beginning the journey to wellness may seem overwhelming, but Jill explains that the best way to get started is to just try, because there is always room to build. 

Tune in to episode 8 of Movement: The Science of The Self to learn more about the importance of valuing the body you’re in, so you can find balance between health and enjoyment that helps you reach and maintain your individualized wellness goals.

Also: Are you feeling stiffness and tension in your body from bad posture and stress? That stiffness and pain may not just be coming from your muscles. A lot of the time, those sensory inputs are coming from the fascia which surrounds your muscles, bones, and joints.

In episode 7, host Elizabeth Pongo guides you through step-by-step instruction on exercises you can do with roller tools to release adhesions on your fascia- and with it, remove stiffness and pain in your body. Listen here, or wherever you get your podcasts.
