“To live life ever forward, the only question that matters is, ‘How did you love?' How did you love your neighbor? How did you love yourself? At the end of the day, that's all I want in my wellness capsule. Love with movement, love with nutrition, love with my significant other, love with the present moment, but love with myself is hands down the most important.” – Chase Chewning

Power Quotes From The Show

Start there. – @ChaseChewning ” quote=”How can you fully love someone if you don't know who they are? Do you love yourself? If not, do you even know yourself? Start there. – @ChaseChewning “]
Fitness Is The Gateway Drug To Wellness
“We want to feel better, we want our life to be better, and we're all seeking health and wellness but how do we achieve all of that? Where do we start? We figure that first, we have to lose weight, maybe by starting to run or go to the gym. It all starts with fitness. Fitness is the gateway drug to wellness. Fitness is the gateway drug to true happiness. Fitness is the gateway drug to everything we're seeking that we have no idea that we're even after. If we can get positive, physical results by working our bodies, what else can we achieve when we shift our mind?” – Chase Chewning
False Connection
“All of these weapons of mass distraction when it comes to dating, being, and connecting allow us this false inability to create our own world because we can live in our phones, through social media, and can do whatever we want whenever we want. We can Amazon prime our life in every way possible. Honestly, is it our fault or society's fault? Is it conditioning? If I can do all of these things in my life with extreme pace and get an extreme result, why can't I get that in my real-life relationships?” – Chase Chewning
Do You Know Yourself?
“I was asleep for the first 29 years of my life. From 27 to 29, that's when I began to fully acknowledge that I needed to do something to change my life and work through my struggles. I didn't complete the inner work in two years, I began to become aware of my ego, toxic thought patterns, and what was no longer serving me that I needed to let go of in order to really understand what it means and to be able and allow myself to really love myself. I couldn't have done that any sooner in my life because I didn't know who I was then. How can you fully love someone if you don't know who they are? Do you love yourself? If not, do you even know yourself? Start there.” – Chase Chewning
