and strong. So, how do you reach radiant health?
By knowing yourself at the deepest level, trusting
in what you feel you need—or don’t need—, and
acting upon these wishes and desires.
4) Interpersonal Health (create healthier personal/family dynamics including communication, boundaries, respect, sense of equality)?
5) Intellectual/Occupational Health (feel more
mentally stimulated, increase my curiosity to
learn, feel fulfilled by work or other tasks)?
6) Environmental Health (better enjoy my surroundings, belongings, climate, increase safety, and eliminate clutter)?
7) Financial Health (having “enough”, save for
the future, follow a budget, spend within limits)?
8) Spiritual Health (increase a sense of inner
peace, meaning, and purpose, practice centering or sacred rituals, increase a sense of community with self, others, and nature)?
The Soul Health Model provides the blueprint
to attaining optimal health. The 10 branches of
the model allow you to assess what is working—
or allowing you to thrive— and what is not working—what diminishes or depletes your sense of vitality—so you can better align with your greatest
needs and desires. Your soul is the inner voice you
hear as you explore the “health” of each aspect of
your life. When we work to balance even one of the
branches, all others are enhanced and we reach a
higher level of radiance (satisfaction, pride, and
comfort) in our lives. Therefore, the better we balance our human lives through listening to our inner wisdom, the more radiant we feel as souls.
Consider how to create your own Soul Health by
listening, trusting, and acting upon how to improve
each of the following branches of health. Ask yourself: How can I enhance my—
1) Physical Health (increase physical fitness,
improve nutrition, work to prevent or treat
an illness or disease, get more sleep, attend
better to general self-care)?
2) Psychological Health (have more positive
thoughts, change unhealthy behaviors, better manage my emotions/feelings, improve
my self-esteem/self-image, eliminate “disease” with my life)?
3) Social Health (eliminate unhealthy relationships, create better relationships with
friends, family, colleagues, and others, spend
more time with my pets)?

9) Sexual Health (enjoy sexual interactions, create intimacy and passion, establish physical
and emotional safety with your partner, heal
sexual wounds)?
10) Recreational Health (create and enjoy time
for fun, leisure, and entertainment)?
Next, create a plan for how you want to move
forward in creating your optimal health. You might
want to choose one branch per month to explore,
choose the top 2 or 3 branches that need work,
or perhaps you will choose to work a little bit at a
time on each of the branches throughout the year.
Whichever method you choose, make sure it aligns
with what feels the most “right”, then get to work.
