Introduction:
Why is
it important for health and wellness professionals to develop psychologically,
spiritually and physically? What areas do you need to develop to achieve the
goals you have for yourself?
Health and wellness
professionals must develop psychologically, spiritually and physically in order
to assist others in making healthy lifestyle choices. As a holistic health and wellness practitioner I have to
continue to work on my inner world.
My goals are to improve my exercise regimen by adding running and yoga
daily. I currently bike and do
yoga, just not as consistently as I would like. I will also work on new meditation and mindfulness
techniques. I plan to do a juice
fast as my near future goal and to eat more live, uncooked, unprocessed foods from
now onward.
My
professional goals tie in with achieving and maintaining changes in my
life. I plan to begin writing out
goals for my holistic health practice and find a place where I can have my
office.

Assessment:
How have you assessed
your health in each domain? How do you score your wellness spiritually,
physically, and psychologically?
My health in each domain
is a 7. I feel that there is
always room for improvement in all aspects of my health. My goal is to raise the score of
my health. I strive to
flourish.

Goal development:
List at
least one goal you have for yourself in each area, Physical, Psychological
(mental health) and Spiritual.
My physical goals are to
run and do yoga daily.
My psychological goal is
to maintain balance in my psychological life. The biggest issue for me is anxiety. I intend to do use more meditation and
mindfulness to manage my anxiety.
I have already seen a difference through meditating more often. I will increase my meditation
time and frequency and try new forms of meditation.
My spiritual goal is to
have gratitude for the abundance in my life on a daily basis. Yoga, meditation and self care all are
part of my spiritual practice. My
goal is to remain steadfast with my inner growth and to do what is in my inner
power to maintain balance and wholeness in my life.
IV.
Practices for personal health:
What
strategies can you implement to foster growth in each of the following domains;
Physical, Psychological, and Spiritual. Provide at least two examples of
exercises or practices in each domain. Explain how you will implement each
example.
The strategies that I have
to foster physical growth is to eat nutritious whole live plant based foods
every day and do juice fasts/feasts seasonally. I will jog, bike and do yoga often. I will bike to work, jog and do yoga
every day.
My psychological growth
will be fostered by my connections to family, friends and community. I will continue to go to group
transpersonal therapy every other Friday morning and to individual healing
sessions to maintain my balance and work on my inner journey.
My spiritual growth will
be fostered through meditation, yoga and connection to the oneness vibration of
the earth and beyond.
V.
Commitment:
How will you assess your
progress or lack of progress in the next six months? What strategies can you
use to assist in maintaining your long-term practices for health and wellness?
I will assess my progress
through maintaining a journal of my growth. This will also help me to maintain my long-term practice of
growth. Staying in a rhythm of
practicing self- care and maintaining my health and wellness will be done
through journaling my progress, increasing my meditation and visualization
toward a place of wholeness and oneness with all of life.
