Finding Harmony Among Your Eight Dimensions of Age 50+ Total Wellness: Make Informed Decisions Regarding a Well-Rounded Personal Wellness Program in t (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781661066147)

Older adult wellness involves a lot more than just functional fitness. In addition to diet, exercise, and physical health, wellness also includes stress management, social concerns, emotional health, safety issues, and other factors affecting one's ability to live and enjoy life to its fullest; even financial security, environmental and vocational considerations, and spiritual fulfillment.This book will provide the reader with information, materials, and resources to make informed decisions regarding a well-rounded personal wellness program, incorporating the expanded eight dimensions of older adult wellness illustrated on the next page and finding harmony among them in the process.The traditional seven dimensions of wellness including an "emotional" dimension have been expanded to incorporate an eighth "mental" dimension. Effectively managing both our mental and emotional health can help us to eliminate stress, worry, anxiety, depression, and other negative feelings. These two separate, yet complimentary dimensions of wellness work together to ensure our overall wellness and ability to effectively interact with others. Additionally, the Vocational dimension has been expanded to include financial wellness as acritical piece of the puzzle for older adults.All eight dimensions of wellness need our personal attention for us to truly flourish. Instead of a balance among all dimensions, the goal is to find harmony among the dimensions that are most authentic for you, including harmony between the mental and emotional dimensions. For example, if the spiritual dimension is not something you find authentic for you, simply bypass it and explore the other dimensions, even though you are encouraged to give each of the dimensions some consideration in your quest for harmony. Harmony requires awareness of self, acceptance of circumstances, and full commitment. It is my hope that the following information and resources within the eight dimensions of older adult wellness will help you develop a wellness plan or refine your existing plan.
