Editor's Notes
Discuss how we all define Wellness differently.Discuss how our ideas about wellness for students may differ….depending on location, culture, SES of students.Ask for input about what this meansHas anyone provided wellness programs for your students? Have you participated in Wellness programs?Here is a definition for you to consider:It does not mean that you do not get ill. It also does not mean that someone with a disability or a chronic illness can not achieve wellness. It is taking what life has presented to you and making the most of each day with it. Wellness is about making healthy choices and making choices about moderation…moderation with eating habits, moderation with exercise habits. (can comment: Wellness is not about policing peoples activities to keep people from eating cookies or junk food but more about educating so that individuals can make the healthy choices naturally and not feel guilty when they may indulge if it is done in moderation).
Wellness is multi-dimensional. To better help understand all of the areas, Dr. Bill Hettler with the National Wellness Institute developed a wellness model.There are only a few models available for use and this model has been adapted by others. Some models have different dimensions or more dimensions.The point that I want to make is that Wellness is much more than physical activity and nutrition. But I believe so strongly in NPA that I focus on that small section today. ..to eat healthier, be more physical activity, reduce health risk and improve their quality of life and happiness factor.
Emphasis: Interdependence between others and nature. As you travel a wellness path, you'll become more aware of your importance in society as well as the impact you have on multiple environments. You'll take an active part in improving our world by encouraging healthier living and initiating better communication with those around you. You'll actively seek ways to preserve the beauty and balance of nature along the pathway as you discover the power to make willful choices to enhance personal relationships, important friendships, and build a better living space and community.
NPA wellness program: Employees selected area to improve. Testimonies of personal balance, finding time for friends and family, community serviceSocial – Recycle plastic and can containersEmotional- Build relationships (office meetings)
How you express your values through your involvement in activities that are gratifying for you. The choice of profession, job satisfaction, career ambitions, and personal performance are all important components of your path's terrain. Occupational wellness follows these tenets: - It is better to choose a career which is consistent with our personal values interests and beliefs than to select one that is unrewarding to us. - It is better to develop functional, transferable skills through structured involvement opportunities than to remain inactive and uninvolved.
Recognizes one's creative, stimulating mental activities. A well person expands their knowledge and skills while discovering the potential for sharing their gifts with others. Using intellectual and cultural activities in the classroom and beyond the classroom combined with the human resources and learning resources available within the university community and the larger community, a well person cherishes intellectual growth and stimulation. Traveling a wellness path, you'll explore issues related to problem solving, creativity, and learning. You'll spend more time pursuing personal interests, reading books, magazines, and newspapers, while keeping abreast of current issues and ideas. As you develop your intellectual curiosity, you'll actively strive to expand and challenge your mind with creative endeavors. Intellectual wellness follows these tenets: >br />>br /> - It is better to stretch and challenge our minds with intellectual and creative pursuits than to become self-satisfied and unproductive. >br />>br /> - It is better to identify potential problems and choose appropriate courses of action based on available information than to wait, worry and contend with major concerns later.
The well person maintains satisfying relationships with others. Awareness of, and accepting a wide range of feelings in yourself and others is essential to wellness. On the wellness path, you'll be able to express feelings freely and manage feelings effectively. You'll be able to arrive at personal choices and decisions based upon the synthesis of feelings, thoughts, philosophies, and behavior. You'll live and work independently while realizing the importance of seeking and appreciating the support and assistance of others. You'll be able to form interdependent relationships with others based upon a foundation of mutual commitment, trust and respect. You'll take on challenges, take risks, and recognize conflict as being potentially healthy. Managing your life in personally rewarding ways, and taking responsibility for your actions, will help you see life as an exciting, hopeful adventure. Emotional wellness follows these tenets: - It is better to be aware of and accept our feelings than to deny them. - It is better to be optimistic in our approach to life than pessimistic.
While traveling the path, you may experience many feelings of doubt, despair, fear, disappointment and dislocation as well as feelings of pleasure, joy, happiness and discovery - these are all important experiences and components to your search and will be displayed in the value system you will adapt to bring meaning to your existence. You'll know you're becoming spiritually well when your actions become more consistent with your beliefs and values, resulting in a "world view."
As you travel the wellness path, you'll strive to spend time building physical strength, flexibility and endurance while also taking safety precautions so you may travel your path successfully, including medical self-care and appropriate use of a medical system. The physical dimension of wellness entails personal responsibility and care for minor illnesses and also knowing when professional medical attention is needed. By traveling the wellness path, you'll be able to monitor your own vital signs and understand your body's warning signs. You'll understand and appreciate the relationship between sound nutrition and how your body performs. The physical benefits of looking good and feeling terrific most often lead to the psychological benefits of enhanced self-esteem, self-control, determination and a sense of direction. Physical wellness follows these tenets: - It is better to consume foods and beverages that enhance good health rather than those which impair it. - It is better to be physically fit than out of shape

Support in ChangesMaking self changes a reality takes support from the environment, the system, and policies.
Barriers to healthy behaviors are shared among the community as a whole. As these barriers are lowered or removed, behavior change becomes more achievable and sustainable. It becomes easier to "push the ball up the hill." The most effective approach leading to healthy behaviors is a combination of the efforts at all levels--individual, interpersonal, organizational, community, and public policy
Policy changes do not mean going to state capitol and lobbying Advocacy needed at all levels
