Unit 7: Current Trends and Research Supporting the Mind-Body-Spirit Paradigm

After doing the The Meeting Asclepius exercise I felt very relaxed and relieved. With any kind of exercise like this I always feel like a new person afterward. It makes you feel whole and refreshed and like you keep want to continue the exercise just to feel that way.  I felt like this exercise was also comforting as I was doing it. Whenever you get that comforting feeling it’s a feeling that you want to get because it makes you feel relaxed. Mindfulness and meditation can do a lot on your body. When doing any type of relaxation exercise you are relaxing your mind, and body and you are clearing your mind. Practicing meditation or any kind of exercise that is going to foster your health is always a good thing. I would recommend anyone to do these exercises on a daily basis so it can help increase your health and wellbeing. By doing this you will see a difference in your body as a whole. What the saying means is a person cannot guide or teach someone without experiencing or knowing the information. Without the necessary knowledge it is not right to lead people into what you do not know. This saying is very important when pertaining to health and wellness. Knowledge in the world of health is very important and is crucial to serve properly. As a health and wellness professional it is your duty to be experienced and informational when it comes to topics in your field. As professionals we must also development our own minds, making them grow and enhance mentally. By doing this we are able to develop our professional and personal lives.

  1. You definetly see a difference with this exercise. I would like to have my son do some of these exercises and see if he can relax? He is 13, but I think he would benefit from these. Great Post, Jean St.John
