IIN's Circle of Life Exercise
Explore What Makes You Feel Whole
with IIN’s Circle of Life Tool
This exercise is a valuable tool for better understanding your unique needs and how to find balance when you’re feeling stuck. By becoming more self-aware of what areas feel nourished and which could use more attention, you will discover how to continuously take care of your body, mind, and soul. Return to this exercise periodically to measure your progress and growth!
So, what do your results mean? The rounder and wider your circle is, the more balanced you feel in these areas that affect your well-being. Your Circle of Life highlights what feeds you in body, mind, and soul—all of the things found off your plate that nourish you just as much as food. This is an IIN core concept called primary food, which underpins our teachings and sets the foundation for our holistic approach to health.
How The Circle of Life Exercise works:
Click to place a dot within each section to mark how fulfilled you feel in that area of your life. Ask yourself questions like, Am I satisfied with my relationships? Am I happy in my career? Is my health where I want it to be?
A dot placed towards the center of the circle indicates dissatisfaction, while a dot placed towards the outside indicates satisfied and fulfilled. Once you’ve placed a dot within each section, fill out the form and click 'Show Me My Circle’ to connect the dots and see your unique Circle of Life. All sections must have a dot in order to proceed.
This exercise is a valuable tool for better understanding your unique needs and how to find balance when you’re feeling stuck.
Rate your current level of satisfaction in each of the following areas of your life. Ask yourself questions like, Am I satisfied with my relationships? Am I happy in my career? Is my health where I want it to be? The left side of the bar represents least satisfied and the right side most satisfied.
