Fall Into Health With The Whole Purpose
The Whole Purpose is a wonderful health driven company headed by Kelly Lam.
The whole purpose of The Whole Purpose (I do amuse myself.) is to build events that are customized specifically to the audience and encompass at least one aspect of well being.
The driving force behind The Whole Purpose is Kelly’s own journey to wellness coupled with her yoga, nutrition, and overall health expertise.
Recently, this brilliance was shared with us in the first of a three-part series at Hoag for Her Center for Wellness.
The Hoag for Her Center for Wellness is a beautiful space with so much to offer. Services include Physical Therapy, Sexual Health Counseling, Psychological Services, Pilates, Massage Therapy, Fitness Programs and more.
Designed by women for women, the specialists at The Hoag for Her Center for Wellness are all females. Additionally, they are all focused on the special needs of a woman.
Our half day experience included plenty of healthy snacks. These were provided by companies such as Lifeway Kefir, Luna Bar, Sambazon, Hum Nutrition, Pamela’s Products, Clif Bar, Kean Coffee, Art of Tea and more.
Mio Global even got in on the action with their generous donation of a Mio Slice for every attendee. How is that for amazing swag?
We began the day by setting our intentions with a guided meditation in the serene atmosphere of the wellness center.
I absolutely enjoyed the discussion on meal planning and nutrition. It was so much fun to have such a brilliant exchange of knowledge in the room.
Healthy living tips were also shared by keynote speaker, Elissa Goodman. Elissa is a holistic nutritionist and lifestyle cleanse expert. In addition to discussing cleanses and supplements she shares her experiences both as a cancer survivor and as a cancer widow.
The Pilates session was great. The room is lovely. I especially loved the emphasis on connecting our minds and bodies with proper positioning.
We also enjoyed massages, acupuncture, cupping and restorative yoga. Our yoga instructor provided several great tips on how to transition from your workday to your private time. These tips included brushing the day away, changing your clothes and washing your hands.
I think that these tips were especially great for those of us that work from home.
I very much look forward to the next session in The Whole Purpose Series.

I always favor a holistic approach to health than traditional medicines. It seems to make so much more sense. Thank you for this! I wish it was closer! #pitstop xo
Maybe you can find something nearby?
This looks like a lovely place and a lovely way to spend a day. I’ve never done anything like this before, but I love the idea. The tips for closing out your work day are something I’m definitely going to try.
You definitely should. It is unbelievably helpful.
Thanks for introducing me to this. I have always wanted to go on a personal retreat to a yoga or wellness center. You reminded me that I need to add it to my life plan and make it happen.
You are so very welcome.
Hi Dr. Elise,
Sounds wonderful. We dudes need to do some modeling!

LOL, you are so funny.
What a fab place..would live to go to somewhere like this in uk
Do you think you can find something?
I have not been to an event like this or a place like this. In the past year, I have started meditating regularly and doing yoga (sporadically). This looks right up my alley. Thanks for sharing. I found you on the Bloggers Pit Stop.

Those are wonderful practices that will serve you well.
This looks amazing! It would be a great place for a corporate (or board) retreat!
YES, exactly.
This sounds like such an amazing event! I’d love to go!
If you can make it then you definitely should
I would love to go to an event like this! It’s totally up my alley.
Well if you come to one for The Whole Purpose let me know and we can meet up.
Looking beautiful. Loved the phrase designed by women for women.
Thanks for this great share!
It certainly sums it all up just perfectly.
What a beautiful way to regroup and care for ones’ self.
I completely agree.
Wow this sounds amazing! Love the holistic approach to health + wellness!
I hope others will also follow on this path.
Very cool! I’ve never heard of a center like this. I wonder if there is something similar where I live. It sounds similar to a yoga retreat, which is something that I’ve been wanting to go on for a while now!
You should definitely look into it. It was a wonderful experience.
What a wonderful retreat!
It was lovely.
I haven’t ever been to an event like this, but with your blog shine on it I certainly want to now!
I think that you would really love it.
This reminds me of Lake Auatin Spa’s programs. A very “whole-Istic “ approach to living well.
I will have to check those out too.
Great center. You can have all your well-being needs taken care there. I wish there’s a place like that near me : )
Perhaps there is. Have you looked into it?
At GlossyCover, we are big proponents of women’s self-care, wellness, and mindfulness to help them in their daily lives. This Whole Purpose experience seems like an excellent way for women to invest in themselves and their self-care. So needed in our busy and hectic lives.
It really is so needed. I love that Glossy Cover is so focused on self-care, wellness, and mindfulness.
Looks beautiful! Can’t say I’ve ever done anything like this but it does sound like a wonderful way to invest your time and certainly an important topic. Thanks for sharing!
It was a beautiful investment in time and self-care.
I love that it is designed by women for women! Every woman knows what another one needs… especially a massage! <3
Right? We definitely can relate to each other in a very special way.
Nice center! I love the “wholistic” approach. It’s more than just eating…mind body and spirit feeds the soul.
Yes, exactly. You would have loved this event.
Ooooh I love the positive message in this and think it so awesome. Never thought about washing my hands as a way to clear the day away but I’m gonna start doing it more after work!
I love that one. It is so simple and so cathartic. It is even better if you can take a shower but most of us are not able to do that at that time of day.
