As we get older, our bodies and minds change. We often find ourselves struggling with health issues we never had when we were younger. And with so many different paths to wellness available, it's easy to get overwhelmed when trying to choose the right approach.
If you're feeling overwhelmed as you begin your natural wellness journey, know that you're not alone. In this post, I'll share some strategies to help you overcome that feeling of being inundated and create a plan that works for you.
Step 1: Narrow Your Focus
The world of natural wellness is vast, so it's important to narrow your focus. Start by choosing one health concern that you want to focus on. This could be anything from digestive issues to joint pain or stress relief.
Step 2: Research Your Options
Once you have a focus, research your options. Consult with your healthcare provider to learn more about any health concern that you might have. There are a lot of resources available to help you understand the many different natural wellness approaches.
Step 3: Choose Your Approach
With a better understanding of your options, it's time to choose the approach that's right for you. Young Living has a number of different products that can help you find the right natural solution for your health concern. If you have any doubts or questions, our Brand Partner team has the expertise and knowledge to help you find the right essential oil for your needs.
Step 4: Start Slow
Don't try to do everything at once. Start your natural wellness journey by incorporating one new practice or product at a time. You don't have to do everything every day. Be gentle with yourself and allow time for your body and mind to adapt and adjust.
Step 5: Set Realistic Goals
Setting goals is an important part of any wellness journey, but be realistic and don't expect instant results. It's important to give yourself time to see any changes. Be patient with yourself and celebrate the small wins.
Step 6: Track Your Progress
Keep track of your progress as you start to incorporate natural wellness products into your routine. Write down how you feel, any changes in systems, and anything else that could be meaningful for you. This can help motivate you during times when you feel like giving up.
Step 7: Find Support
Finally, it's essential to find support as you embark on your natural wellness journey. Whether it's a friend or relative, or a support group of like-minded individuals, having a community to share your journey with can provide encouragement and motivation. My team and I might fill this need for you perfectly! We are passionate about supporting each other, helping provide educational resources, and lifting each other up when needed. We would love to include you!
Concluding Thoughts
The natural wellness journey can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. By narrowing your focus, making informed decisions, starting slowly, setting realistic goals, tracking your progress, and finding support, you can achieve better health and wellness in a sustainable and natural way.

Have a question or something to share?
✨ My blog exists because I know what it feels like to keep everything jumbled in your head — like a messy pile of clothes you can’t sort through.
Writing it all down brings clarity, calm, and sometimes even healing answers I didn’t know I was looking for.
Honestly, that’s why I keep showing up to write — it helps me make sense of things.
Even if you have no intentions of ever publishing your work, I highly recommend writing stuff down. It doesn't have to be a literary masterpiece or even full, grammatically correct sentences... just dump those random thoughts onto paper... you'll see what I mean.
*This blog centers the GenX experience, simply because that’s the lens I live through—but anyone looking for connection, natural wellness, grief support, or a little real-talk in this messy stage of life is more than welcome.
