Wellness Workbook
In this newly revised edition of the classic Wellness Workbook (3rd Edition, 2004), authors John W. Travis, M.D., and Regina Sara Ryan present wellness as a practical, holistic approach to optimal health through the integration of mind, body, emotions, and spirit.
This whole systems approach to wellness, developed by one of the fathers of the wellness movement, is a revolutionary approach in which health is viewed from its most fundamental perspective—how we manage the many forms of energy which move in and out of our body.
The reasoning is simple, once stated: if wellness—good enduring health—is anything, it is harmoniously using the flow of energy which each of us takes in, controls and gives back to the world as we live out each day. It is a never-ending, every-breath-you take process that involves the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual fiber of our lives.
The Wellness Workbook is divided into 12 chapters, each corresponding to an element of the Wellness Energy System developed by Dr. Travis: self-responsibility and love, breathing, sensing, eating, moving, feeling, thinking, playing and working, communicating, sex, finding meaning, and transcending.
"...a clarion call for total health: wellness of body, mind, and spirit."
Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Healing Beyond the Body
