Introduction

In our pursuit of happiness and fulfilment, we often find ourselves yearning for a sense of wholeness, a completeness that encompasses every aspect of our being. From our physical health to our emotional well-being, from our intellectual pursuits to our spiritual beliefs, true wellness is the integration of all these dimensions into a cohesive and harmonious whole. In this exploration of wholeness, we delve into the essence of what it means to be truly well, drawing insights from the wisdom of Deepak Chopra and the holistic approach of POSIES described by Dr. Pieter du Toit at ​EduNomix™​. Join us on this journey as we uncover the richness of a life lived in balance and harmony, where every component contributes to the symphony of our existence.

Healing as Wholeness

"Healing is the return of the memory of wholeness. Healing, health, whole and holy all mean inclusiveness. Body, mind, spirit, environment, relationships, social interactions are all one wholeness, and you're a part of that one wholeness." - Deepak Chopra

The Quest for Wholeness

When a colleague of mine recently worked at a soup kitchen, one poor soul in the group remarked that the soup was too thin for proper nourishment. She craved a soup with more substance, a soup that would satisfy her hunger. Wellbeing has many dimensions: intellectual, emotional, social, physical, and spiritual. These aspects are all integrated and gel together to form a complex organism. People want more, they long for wholeness, and counselling serves as a tool to facilitate the attainment of wholeness. Soup with substance is a mix of many vegetables cooked together into one rich broth; stock, carrots, onions, potatoes, peas, and celery merge into a hearty potage. Such is wellness counselling, a mixture of rich variety that cultivates and restores wholeness to the incomplete.

Recognising the Lack of Wholeness

One thing that we can know for sure is that the world lacks wholeness. We see the evidence every day. A wealthy tycoon may enjoy material prosperity but be poor in close relationships, or an astute athlete may be physically fit, but may suffer mental or emotional imbalance; the world seems to be full of unwell people. It appears that the 'soup kitchens' of life only dish out watery soups; hence, wholeness is the most needed and precious commodity in this world. The continuous desire for more, the quest for adventure and exploration, and the manifold addictions that people crave are often nothing else than cheap substitutes in their search for wholeness. To be whole is the most essential and pressing existential need of any human being. If we fail to be whole, we fail to be human. People may seek your help for many reasons, but as a counsellor, you need to know that all these needs are only small pieces of the bigger picture that people seek to complete. A whole person is empowered to overcome challenges, solve problems and brave life.

Why Seek Wholeness?

Why do people seek wholeness we might wonder? The answer is clear; people seek wholeness because each person is a whole system and without wholeness, no one qualifies as being fully human. This is a significant characteristic of a human organism in contrast to, for example, a motor car. You can fix a car easily by replacing the spark plug or the water pump, but you cannot fix a human the same way. Reductionism does not apply to living organisms as easily as it applies to a machine. Therefore, good counselling does not seek to fix what is broken but to restore wholeness so that people may realise their human potential.

Holistic Approaches to Counselling

In the pursuit of wholeness, counselling plays a pivotal role in guiding individuals toward greater well-being. Adopting a holistic approach, counsellors recognise that true wellness encompasses not only the physical body but also the mind, spirit, and social connections. One approach that encapsulates this holistic perspective is POSIES, which stands for Physical, Occupational, Social, Intellectual, Emotional, and Spiritual wellness. This perspective, described by Dr Pieter du Toit from ​EduNomix™, emphasises the interconnectedness of these dimensions in achieving holistic well-being.

Physical Wellness: Physical wellness encompasses caring for the body through nutrition, exercise, and rest. Interventions may include encouraging clients to adopt healthy lifestyle habits, such as regular physical activity and balanced nutrition, to support their overall well-being.

Occupational Wellness: Occupational wellness relates to finding fulfilment and satisfaction in one's work or daily activities. Counsellors may explore clients' vocational interests, skills, and values to help them identify meaningful pursuits and develop strategies for achieving work-life balance.

Social Wellness: Social wellness emphasises the importance of supportive relationships and meaningful connections with others. Interventions may involve exploring clients' social networks, communication skills, and interpersonal dynamics to enhance their sense of belonging and connectedness.

Intellectual Wellness: Intellectual wellness involves engaging in lifelong learning and stimulating cognitive activities. Counsellors may encourage clients to pursue intellectual interests, such as reading, attending educational workshops, or learning new skills, to enhance cognitive function and promote intellectual well-being.

Emotional Wellness: Emotional wellness focuses on understanding and managing emotions effectively. Counsellors may help clients develop self-awareness, coping strategies, and resilience to navigate life's challenges. Through exploration of thoughts and feelings, clients can cultivate emotional balance, enhance relationships, and foster a sense of inner peace and well-being. Encouraging practices such as mindfulness, self-compassion, and healthy expression of emotions can contribute to emotional wellness and overall wholeness.

Spiritual Wellness: Spiritual wellness encompasses finding meaning, purpose, and connection to something greater than oneself. Counsellors may support clients in exploring their spiritual beliefs, values, and practices, and facilitate existential discussions to foster a sense of inner peace and transcendence. Encouraging practices such as meditation, prayer, or reflection can nurture spiritual well-being and contribute to overall wholeness.

Conclusion

In embracing the holistic approach of POSIES and the wisdom of Deepak Chopra, we embark on a journey towards wholeness, a journey that honours the interconnectedness of our physical, occupational, social, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual selves. Through counselling, we not only address individual concerns but also nurture a sense of completeness that permeates every aspect of our lives. As we strive for balance and harmony, may we remember that true wellness is not merely the absence of illness but the integration of all that makes us human.
Let us embrace this journey with open hearts and minds, knowing that in our quest for wholeness, we discover the richness of our true selves.

It empowers individuals to take charge of their well-being through informed choices and holistic practices.]]>

Introduction

In the realm of healthcare decisions, the choice between medical intervention and alternative remedies often presents a dilemma. Bella's contemplation of a cholecystectomy, or gallbladder removal surgery, highlights this ongoing debate. As Dr. Marius Herholdt, CEO of Synergetica, introduces the HYCY system, Heal Yourself, Counsel Yourself. This blog explores the complexities surrounding medical decisions and the role of self-care in healthcare.

Folk Medicine or Not?

Bella said she was going to see a specialist for a possible cholecystectomy. For those of you not acquainted with the term, it refers to the surgical removal of a small, pouch-like organ in the upper right part of your tummy. Yes, you are right, it is the gallbladder.

The function of the gall bladder is to collect and store bile, a digestive fluid produced in your liver. It is performed in the case of gallstones, inflammation or polyps which can be very painful. Although one can live without a gallbladder as it is not essential to healthy digestion, there is anecdotal evidence that natural ways could help people get rid of gallstones without a surgical procedure by following a gallbladder flush regimen. According to some research, there is evidence that dietary factors influence the risk of developing cholesterol gallstones. Alan Gaby wrote an article on this topic, Nutritional approaches to prevention and treatment of gallstones.

As Bella was not scheduled for surgery yet, I had the liberty to ask her why she did not consider folk medicine options before taking such a drastic step. Her answer was: “No thank you, my doctor knows what he is talking about and he recommended it.” Case closed. Or is it?

We find this attitude often, people are willing to submit to medical authority without considering alternative options. Of course, we respect medical intervention when warranted. Our daughter recently had to undergo a tonsillectomy, and in her case, it was best as it was a chronic condition. But in many cases, people can benefit from wellness support and folk medicine protocols as alternative options, but this requires self-care which people are not always ready or open to.

Due to the medicalisation of society, the health ignorance of people and the high premium we place on medical care as an authoritarian system, we easily assume the role of patients when sick. Patients are passive followers, they expect the doctor to heal them; many people even become their diseases for we often hear: “I am bi-polar” or “I am a diabetic”. Shame, sorry to hear.

Patient or Actient?

Being a patient is a passive attitude of obedience to drink your medication. A patient settles, does not consider being actively involved in self-healing or is open to applying self-care. In wellness contexts we promote self-care as the core of healthcare for it requires people to accept responsibility for their well-being and to ensure that they are duly informed about beneficial lifestyle choices. Hence, we do not refer to them as patients, but as actients. A combination of active plus client is active client, I have coined the term: Actient. An cctient can practice facilitated self-care committed to the agenda to heal yourself and counsel yourself for which I use the acronym HYCY.

The Foundation of Self-Care

The underlying principle is that well-being enhancement enables one to support and work with the innate healing mechanism of the human body. No expert can heal you or me, they can only facilitate the healing process at most. Well-being is more than physical health, it is a total holistic self-care process of overall improvement with six pillars:

  1. You can increase your knowledge of wellness processes and especially health literacy.
  2. Take care of your mental and emotional well-being because it impacts your physical health.
  3. Practice physical activity for it stimulates healing to take place.
  4. Avoid risks that could jeopardise your health, including exposure to stress and sleeplessness.
  5. Practice good hygiene, to minimise infections.
  6. Learn how to make rational use of natural products and services.

Remember

“Self-care is never a selfish act, it is simply good stewardship of the only gift I have, the gift I was put on earth to offer others. Anytime we can listen to true self and give the care it requires, we do it not only for ourselves, but for the many others whose lives we touch.”
― Parker Palmer, Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation

Postscript

Bella had her op and afterwards struggled for a while with chronic diarrhoea. I underwent a gall bladder flush myself and it was successful according to my ultrasound scan.

Conclusion

As Parker Palmer aptly states, self-care is a profound act of stewardship towards oneself and others. Through the HYCY system, individuals can tap into their innate healing potential and make informed decisions about their health. While medical intervention remains essential in many cases, embracing self-care empowers individuals to take an active role in their well-being, fostering holistic health and resilience.

It highlights the ASCHP's role in advocating for holistic practices, fostering a culture where wellness is paramount.]]>

Introduction

When Dr. Halbert Dunn joined the Mayo Clinic in the 1960s, his mission seemed straightforward: develop a coding system to track chronic diseases. However, his journey led him to a profound realisation about the nature of health and wellness.

The Birth of a New Perspective

Dunn's work uncovered a startling truth, many individuals were predisposed to chronic illnesses due to what he termed low-level wellness. His research ignited a paradigm shift, emphasising the importance of transitioning patients to a state of high-level wellness.

A Holistic Approach to Well-Being

Dunn's insights challenged the conventional notion of health as merely the absence of disease. Instead, he envisioned wellness as a multifaceted concept encompassing mental, emotional, social, physical, and spiritual well-being. This holistic perspective laid the foundation for a new understanding of health.

Defining Wellness Today

Today, Dr. Pieter du Toit at ​EduNomix™​ defines wellness as a holistic endeavour, embracing the POSIES approach encompassing Physical, Occupational, Social, Intellectual, Emotional, and Spiritual wellness. It prioritises enhancing well-being over treating illness, reflecting a multidimensional perspective acknowledging the interconnected aspects of human experience.

Today we understand wellness in the following terms:

  • Wellness is holistic, working with the human person as a bio-psychosocial system.
  • It is salutogenic, aiming to improve and enhance well-being rather than just treating illness.
  • Wellness is multidimensional, covering psychological, social, physical, and spiritual aspects.
  • It promotes non-invasive and complementary practices, encouraging self-care.
  • Beneficial for preventative healthcare, wellness is both popular and trending in marketing.
  • In clinical settings, wellness is scientifically founded, based on the latest research findings.

The Role of Self-Care and Prevention At the heart of the wellness paradigm lies the principle of self-care. By empowering individuals to take an active role in their health, wellness practices promote preventive healthcare. This proactive approach aims to mitigate the risk of disease and foster overall well-being.

From Theory to Practice

While the concept of wellness has gained academic recognition, its integration into modern healthcare systems remains incomplete. Despite the prevalence of disease-focused models, there is a growing need for practitioners who prioritise holistic well-being. Organisations like the​ Association for Supportive Counsellors and Holistic Practitioners​ (ASCHP) play a vital role in advocating for the adoption of wellness principles in clinical practice.

Conclusion

As we navigate the complexities of modern healthcare, embracing the wellness paradigm offers a transformative path forward. By recognising the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, we can cultivate a culture of health that extends beyond the absence of illness. Through education, advocacy, and collaboration, we can build a future where wellness is not just a goal but a way of life.

Introduction

In the whirlwind of our fast-paced lives, the concept of wellness self-care has emerged as a beacon for those seeking balance and fulfilment. This blog delves into the transformative power of self-care, and its pivotal role in achieving holistic health. ​EduNomix™​ invites you to embark on a journey to wellbeing through ASCHP's ​Wellness Self-Care CPD 24.2​ course. 

The Shift towards Holistic Health Care

In advocating for a shift to holistic health care, influential voices in the health sector empower individuals to take charge of their wellbeing through self-care practices, recognising the individual as the vital factor in health and healing.

Self-Care as a Noble Duty

More than self-indulgence, self-care is a commitment to maintaining health for a fulfilling life. In today's world, healthcare providers lack the means and time to ensure individual wellbeing, underscoring the importance of personal responsibility for health.

Staying Physically Healthy: A Key Aspect of Self-Care

The World Health Organisation defines self-care as the ability to promote health, prevent disease, maintain health, and cope with illness. Our Wellness Self-Care course acknowledges the crucial role of wellness counsellors as facilitators of self-care.

Research Validates Self-Care Strategies

Numerous studies affirm the efficacy of self-care strategies in preventing illness and overcoming disease. The self-care paradigm involves individuals autonomously taking care of themselves and their families, a core aspect covered in our comprehensive course.

Wellness as a Self-Care System

Wellness is a self-care system where healthcare providers facilitate nourishing choices, encompassing relaxation, intellectual pursuits, and health literacy. Our course emphasises the importance of informed decision-making in your wellness journey.

Benefits of Wellness Training

Empowering individuals to boost health, protect against diseases, and practice mental clarity, our Wellness Self-Care course addresses health challenges related to relationships, balance, and lifestyle.

Types of Wellness Self-Care

Emotional, physical, and spiritual self-care involves positive self-talk, stress management, hygiene, nutrition, and spiritual practices. Our course offers a comprehensive approach to recognising the interconnectedness of these dimensions.

Conclusion

The shift towards wellness self-care is a transformative journey that acknowledges individual responsibility for wellbeing. It is about embracing a holistic approach to health and actively participating in your journey towards optimum mental and physical wellbeing.
