Unit 7


Complete the Meeting Aesclepius mp3 (located in the Doc Sharing area). Describe your meditative practices for the week and discuss the experience. Explain how mindfulness or meditation has fostered an increase in your psychological or spiritual wellness. How can you continue to apply these practices in your life to foster greater health and wellness? 
 
 Meditation has fostered both my psychological and spiritual wellness by helping me find an inner and calmer being in within my deeper thoughts. This practice has made me a better opened minded person; I can observe something instead of just looking at it. I can apply this on an everyday basis because; it can make me feel greater and more fulfill of life.

Describe the saying: "One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself" (p.477). How does this apply to the health and wellness professional? Do you have an obligation to your clients to be developing your health psychologically, physically, and spiritually? Why or why not? How can you implement psychological and spiritual growth in your personal life?  

The saying “One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself” means that a person cannot help you on a journey if that person has not yet done the journey itself. In other words how can a person teach you if he/she has not yet learn? Yes, I have an obligation to develop my health psychological, physical and spiritual being before helping any client. Implementing psychological and spiritual growth in my personal life is a practice that I have been developing to improve, my wholeness within all the guide of the inner person or spiritual being.
