Ten tenets of wellness.
1.Wellness is a holistic concept..the whole person mind, body, spirit and environment.
2.Self-esteem is a critical factor in change.
3.Positive peer health norms encourage wellness lifestyle changes, who we surround ourselves with either helps us stretch our wings or clip them again and again.
4.Conscious living means becoming aware of all the choices we have and acting on them.
5.A sense of connectedness grounds us in our lives.
6.We are primarily responsible for our health.
7. Increased self sufficiency gives the confidence and power that overshadows fear.
8.Time spent alone helps us to get to know ourselves better.
9.You don't have to perfect to be well.
10.Play....we all need to lighten up.
A safe and courageous space for change must be, by definition, a place where the truth can be told. It is a place where clients can tell the whole truth about what they have done {and not done without worrying about looking good. This is an environment without judgment. And it is a place where the coach expects the truth from the client because there is no consequence of truth other than growth and learning.
