"One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself”

 This is a very apt saying for someone studying to become a health and wellness professional.  I personally feel that you must practice what you preach in order to lead by example.  I also feel that I have an obligation to my clients to work on developing my health psychologically, physically, and spiritually. This is because I need to be as wholesome as possible to guide others towards the gift of integral health.  I am implementing psychological and spiritual growth in my personal life by eating well balanced meals, exercising consistently, meditating, praying and listening to spiritual readings.  I am also learning how to choose my thoughts and make them positive.  When you change your thoughts and attitudes you can change your feelings.
