Are you open to the idea that understanding your unique nutritional needs, wellness beliefs, and lifestyle (in short, your wellness archetype) helps in the choice of food that goes into your pantry?
I am sure you know yourself best. Your wellness routine is as unique as your fingerprint and meshes beautifully with your personality, style, and goals. I even hope you are not a victim of one-size-fits-all wellness trends in the current markets
However, knowledge is power. And more insight into one’s wellness means more power to you.
Wellness archetype: Why & What
Why: Knowing your wellness archetype will help you build better routines and find your correct product match. (after all, wellness need not be a cookie-cutter solution)
What: For this discussion, I am introducing four broad wellness personality types
The Four Personality Archetypes
The Rooted Ritualist: “My wellness is rooted. My rituals are sacred.”
The Glow Getter: “Glow is not just about skin. It’s about energy, clarity, and deep nourishment.”
The Zen Nomad: “My peace is portable. My body is home.”
The Vitality Seeker: “I move with power. I fuel with purpose.”
Do you have a clear idea about your wellness personality? If yes, you are already ahead of the game! Simply jot down your answer.
Unsure? Think for a moment and jot down the first answer that pops into your head.
