To analyze wellness through the four lenses because it gave me more
knowledge of wellness through different aspects.
I feel like discussions about wellness with some people may not always
go the way we would like. Some people get defensive about anything
and if you are trying to talk to them or educate them why focusing on
their wellness or the wellness of other things, they may take that as you
are coming at them and get defensive. That is why it is best to
understand where they are coming from. Meaning their background,
their culture, etc. Once people understand wellness and what it means
to take care of it, human kind may be able to further understand the
importance.
Personally this class has educated me more on understanding what it
means to take care of my well-being as well as educating others to take
care of theirs. Academically, with me having the proper wellness, I
should be able to succeed more with getting better grades, presenting
better work, and altogether doing better. Professionally, since I am
going into the field of human services, understanding wellness will help
me to provide clients with better aspects of their life. If I can teach them
anything about themselves, it will be the more we care for our well-
being the better we can help others care for theirs.
