About

Time for Wellness was founded with the aim to provide free, evidence-based natural health information focusing on chronic disease prevention and the promotion of optimal health.

Key areas of focus include:

  • Diet, nutrition and healthy eating
  • Herbs and natural supplements
  • Stress reduction and management
  • Social connection and support
  • Mind-body practices
  • Exercise and physical activity
  • Environmental health
  • Healthy lifestyle behaviours

The major causes of ill health in the world today are collectively termed "chronic diseases" and include diabetes, heart disease, certain cancers, obesity, depression and dementia. Chronic diseases  are diet and lifestyle related and evidence clearly shows that adopting a healthy lifestyle can dramatically reduce disease risk and may even reverse established illness.

What we eat, how we respond to stress, whether or not we smoke, how much we exercise, and the quality of our relationships and social support may be as powerful as drugs and surgery in treating (not just preventing) many chronic diseases.” – Dean Ornish M.D.

Furthermore, the same dietary and lifestyle factors that prevent serious illness also promote optimal health and have the power to enhance your quality of life. By living well, you can look, feel, perform and stay well.
