Calling on the reinforcements
Although the decision to change your lifestyle to support wellness must come from you, there are many sources available to help you along the way. The more you learn about health and wellness, the easier it will be for you to know which changes to make and the best way to implement those changes. Educational materials, resource organizations, local programs and a wide range of healthcare practitioners are some of the resources available to assist you.
EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS
Check your local library or bookstore for books, cassettes, magazines, videos and other self-help information. Scanning the topics of health, wellness, psychology, nutrition and exercise will get you started.
LOCAL RESOURCES
Most communities have regularly scheduled lectures, workshops and seminars on health-related topics. Check your newspaper and the community educational system to find out what's available in your area.
ORGANIZATIONS
Many special interest groups exist which promote various aspects of health and wellness. In addition, there are organizations, such as the American Holistic Health Association, which can link you to useful health information sources.
AHHA's resource lists include referrals to various types of healthcare practitioners, research services for conventional and alternative treatment of specific diseases, and catalogs of self-help publications.
HEALTHCARE PRACTITIONERS
Find practitioners who are willing to help you reach your wellness goals--those who can coach you and your team effectively. Establish a partnership relationship with these practitioners by being an active participant.
