These aren’t just Instagram captions; they’re lived truths, shaped by experience and shared from the heart.

Read on—you might just find the reminder your mind, body, or soul has been craving.

“Wellness isn’t about being perfect , it’s about laughing freely, breathing deeply, resting often, being your true self, and loving yourself wholeheartedly.”

“We are comprised of body, mind, heart and soul. As such, complete wellness ought to be holistic so as to encompass and incorporate all aspects – from physical health, fitness, mental acuity, emotional well-being and spirituality. Since the pandemic, society has started to now also place a higher intrinsic value on the non-physical, intangibles of mental health, emotional well-being and spiritual abundance. The collective shift has already begun to cultivate cohesion of all the facets and layers that make out the totality of all our wellness aspects since we are starting to realise that they are all clearly correlated and interconnected. One begets the other in a circular loop.”

“I always try to be active—whether it’s catching some waves, doing yoga, or simply feeling the sun on my skin and my toes in the sand. Nature grounds me; I truly believe it grounds everyone and offers much-needed perspective. Yoga, in particular, is like body meditation for me—it calms my mind and brings a sense of peace. But really, any form of movement is medicine. It releases endorphins, eases anxiety, and helps me feel more connected to myself and the world around me.”

– Geri Ong, Founder of SummerWine

Geri Ong is the founder of SummerWine, a woman-led wearable tech brand revolutionising menstrual care with purpose-driven innovation. With a vision to make periods safer, more comfortable, and empowering for women everywhere, Geri leads the development of lingerie designed with anti-UTI, moisturising fabric blends (patent pending).

“One of my core wellness principles is this: Expand the mind, shift the perspective. When fear arises, I pause—not to resist it, but to understand it. What is this trigger truly showing me? In that space of awareness, I can transform fear into love, judgment into empathy, and contraction into freedom. Every reaction is an invitation to know myself more deeply.”

– Teresa Wong, Founder of Soulistic Clinic

“Wellness isn’t about chasing perfection—it’s about building small, consistent habits that honour your body, your mind, and your spirit. I always remind myself that rest, joy, and nourishment are not luxuries; they’re essential acts of self-respect. When you treat yourself with the same kindness you’d offer a friend, true wellness naturally follows.”

— Melissa Fann, Founder & Director, The Wellness Insider
