But, here’s the real point: Why is wellness so important for entrepreneurs? Why is wellness important to success?
When someone is well it means they are proactively making choices that improve their quality of life. Wellness practices reduce stress and anxiety, giving you the energy and motivation to balance your personal and work life to achieve success.
Physical wellness promotes proper care of our bodies for optimal health and functioning.  Overall physical wellness encourages the balance of physical activity, nutrition and mental well-being to keep your body in top condition. Obtaining an optimal level of wellness allows you to nurture personal responsibility for your own health. As you become conscious of your physical health, you are able to identify elements you are successful in as well as elements you would like to improve.
