Understanding Wellness

Explore foundational concepts that shape your well-being, your choices, and your path forward.

  • Wellness is a holistic, ongoing journey of caring for your mind, body, emotions, and spirit. It involves making mindful daily choices that reflect how you want to feel and who you aspire to become.

    True wellness isn't about perfection; it’s about awareness, intention, and approaching growth with compassion and kindness.

  • Wellness encompasses interconnected aspects that influence your overall life experience.

    • Physical wellness: energy, nourishment, movement, rest

    • Emotional wellness: resilience, self-awareness, regulation

    • Mental wellness: clarity, mindset, thought patterns

    • Social wellness: connection, boundaries, belonging

    • Spiritual wellness: purpose, alignment, values

    • Environmental wellness: surroundings that support growth

    • Lifestyle wellness: habits, routines, day-to-day structure

    When these dimensions come together, you experience a sense of balance, grounding, and empowerment in a warm and compassionate way.

Coaching & Guidance

Discover how wellness coaching supports your growth, strengthens your habits, and helps you move toward meaningful, lasting change.

  • A Wellness Coach is a supportive and encouraging guide dedicated to helping you understand your current situation, clarify your goals, and develop the habits and mindset necessary to reach them. Coaching provides a structured, accountable, and motivating environment as you work to break old patterns, establish new routines, and discover your true potential.

    Many clients experience:

    • Greater clarity

    • Increased confidence

    • Healthier habits

    • A renewed sense of purpose

    • A stronger trust in themselves

    A coach doesn’t tell you what to do; instead, they help you become the person who knows how to move forward with confidence and compassion.

  • While both support personal well-being, they emphasize different aspects:

    • Health Coaches primarily assist with lifestyle changes related to physical health—such as nutrition, exercise, weight management, and preventive habits.

    • Wellness Coaches adopt a whole-person perspective, exploring mindset, emotions, habits, identity, confidence, resilience, and inner harmony—alongside lifestyle improvements.

    At Mountain Awakening, we offer a compassionate blend of both approaches, centered on holistic, whole-person transformation.

  • Your Wellness Vision is a meaningful guide that reflects your aspirations, values, strengths, and the positive future you aim to build.

    Your Wellness Plan thoughtfully translates this vision into achievable weekly goals, supportive habits, and practical steps. It serves as your guiding light—helping you make informed decisions, stay focused, and find clarity throughout your coaching journey.

Focused Wellness Sessions


Short-term, intentional support for clarity, nourishment, and a grounded next step.

  • A Discovery Call is a brief, complimentary conversation to explore fit and determine whether working together makes sense.


    Focused Wellness Sessions are paid, one-on-one sessions designed to provide real-time guidance, clarity, and support around a specific need or season.

  • No. Focused Wellness Sessions are wellness coaching sessions and are not a substitute for therapy, medical care, or mental health treatment.

  • No. These sessions are designed to stand alone and do not require a long-term commitment. Some clients choose to continue their work through a coaching journey, while others take the session as a meaningful and complete experience.

  • After your session, you’ll receive a thoughtful follow-up email summarizing key insights, reflections, and suggested next steps. There is no expectation of ongoing support unless you choose to continue working together.

  • The Wellness Kickstart Session may be applied in full toward the Transcend coaching journey if you choose to enroll within 21 days. Other Focused Wellness Sessions are not applied toward journeys.

  • Each session is designed to support a different need or season. If you’re unsure which option feels like the best fit, you’re welcome to reach out through the Contact page or schedule a complimentary Discovery Call. description

  • Focused Wellness Sessions are scheduled manually to ensure a thoughtful and personalized experience. Once you reach out through the Contact page, you’ll receive a personal response within 24–48 hours to coordinate next steps.

  • That’s completely okay. These sessions are designed to meet you where you are — without pressure, urgency, or expectation. Even one intentional conversation can offer clarity and relief.

Working Together

Learn what to expect inside the coaching relationship — from communication and accountability to how we collaborate to support your goals.

  • All coaching sessions are conducted virtually through Zoom, enabling you to join from any location in a calm and comfortable setting conducive to reflection.

    Many clients value the convenience and flexibility of virtual coaching, as no in-person attendance is necessary.

  • Each journey is thoughtfully crafted to support you at various stages of your wellness path: 

    • Transcend (4 weeks): Ideal if you’re feeling stuck, seeking clarity, or looking to build early confidence and momentum.

    • Empower (12 weeks): Perfect for establishing consistency, strengthening habits, enhancing nutrition, and receiving steady support.

    • Transform (6 months): Designed for deep, sustainable, long-term change across physical, mental, emotional, and energetic aspects.

    If you’re uncertain, we're happy to discuss your goals during a Free Discovery Call to help identify which journey best supports your next summit.
