Freston then turns her attention to mental health, personal growth, and increased self-awareness. She encourages readers to undertake personal education, dig deeper into their beliefs and values, and be mindful of their thoughts and feelings. She recommends adopting a practice of daily introspection and journaling to help readers gain insight into their inner lives and build a stronger connection with themselves.

Next, Freston delves into the intersection of physical, mental, social, and spiritual health. Here, she emphasizes the importance of cultivating meaningful relationships with those around us by building strong connections with family and friends, engaging in helpful social activities, and finding ways to contribute to society. She also emphasizes the importance of spiritual connection, advocating for meditation, mindfulness, and faith as tools to unlock greater meaning and purpose in life.

Finally, Freston discusses the importance of environmental impact. She addresses the importance of sustainable living practices and suggests readers read up on the impact of our consumer choices on the environment. She also offers readers the opportunity to take a mindful approach to environmental impact by considering how their lifestyle affects the planet.
