The history of health education in NZ and a brief rundown on the curriculumRuth Lemon

Maintaining a stress-free and calm mind allows for better control of the body.

YOGA FOR SILVER CITIZENS
Silver citizen is a polite term assigned to citizens of senior rank. Ageing can be reversed by proper lifestyle, good dietary management and regular physical exercise such as Yoga to promote overall quality of life and their well being. Yoga is commonly understood as a practice that is physically beneficial, whereas it is concerned and related more with the mind than the body. Yogic techniques aim at maintaining and improving the various motor skills. These are non-strenuous, non-fatiguing and can be performed comfortably during old age.
Yoga has been proven to help alleviate health challenges making it an increasingly popular choice for the adult population. The many benefits of yoga may slow down or even reverse the ageing process. The regular, repeated, rhythmic practice of yoga helps ward off mental fatigue, thereby ensuing better physiological functioning.

AGE GRACEFULLY AND AGE WITH DIGNITY
This document discusses the role of spirituality in addiction treatment and recovery. It argues that addiction affects the body, mind and soul, so treatment must address spiritual well-being. Twelve-step programs incorporate spiritual principles like honesty, hope and forgiveness. Studies show better recovery outcomes for those engaged in daily spiritual practices like prayer. While some therapists avoid spirituality due to concerns over imposing values, clients find spiritual discussions and references helpful when facilitated properly. True recovery involves profound personal changes attributed to a higher power by many recovering addicts.
Moksha, or liberation, can be understood as freedom from the cycle of death and rebirth as well as freedom from ignorance through self-realization. According to Ayurveda and other philosophies, moksha is achieved by reducing the influence of rajas and tamas gunas on the mind. Moksha can occur during life as jivanmukti or after death as videhamukti. Regular yoga practice can help develop siddhis or supernatural powers and aid in achieving moksha. Naishtiki chikitsa refers to treatments that reduce desires and attachments, helping one attain moksha by escaping from miseries.
Karma is a core concept in Hinduism and other Indian religions that suggests good or bad deeds can influence future outcomes through reincarnation. According to karma, good actions lead to beneficial effects while bad actions lead to harmful effects, either in this life or a future one. The effects are not necessarily immediate, and karma is more concerned with moral intentions rather than just actions and consequences. Karma is connected to the concept of reincarnation, in which the soul is reborn in a new body based on the depletion of past karmas.
Yoga has evolved over time from ancient texts to a global practice that provides physical and mental benefits. While society emphasizes outward success, the fast pace of modern life makes it difficult to prioritize wellness.

However, yoga's true spiritual significance is in uniting the soul with God - its ultimate goal is spiritual fulfillment rather than just physical fitness. When practiced under proper guidance, yoga can be a way of life that leads to spiritual success.
This module aims to provide spiritual care training to participants. It discusses the relationship between religion, spirituality, and pastoral care. Spiritual care involves engaging with others as fellow humans, attending to how people receive care, and supporting what nurtures a person's spirit. When facing death, some common spiritual concerns include relationships/belonging, meaning/self-worth, and coping/control. Effective spiritual care involves listening to a person's story without judgment and building trust.
