One article defined self-care as “the care of oneself without medical, professional or other assisntance or oversight.” (Godfey, CM et al, 2011). While reviewing different articles the conclusion was that the definition of self-care could
For the human joint anatomy project, our group decided to research and construct the elbow joint. The following is a report and summary of the project including roles taken, challenges faced, solutions derived, and ultimately, contribution and experiences of both partners.
homeostasis. Joint homeostasis is maintain with the balance between build up mechanism and break down mechanism of the joint. Imbalance homeostasis occurred when anabolic effect is slower than catabolic effect of the joint. This will result in joint instability (Goldring MB, 2006).
Numerous measures are undertaken throughout the course of a deployment in order to help CAF personnel cope with the psychological effects of their work. These measures extend beyond the scope of a tour of duty and includes processes to mitigate mental stress both before the deployment occurs, like pre-deployment training, as well as afterwards, like using decompression sites to minimize the risk of reverse culture shock upon returning home. Moreover, these measures are required in order to minimize the potential for soldiers to feel a loss of their military identity subsequent to returning

This is Active Aging Week (September 25-October 1). The theme this year is 'Exploring the Possibilities" with opportunities to enhance your wellness programming by involving residents, families, community, and staff.
This program consisted of 15 minutes of daily audio sessions. Everyday, for five consecutive weeks, the participating employees will be guided through brief body scans and sitting meditation sessions. During regular working hours, they will be invited to listen to a 10-mins audio session in the morning before beginning their work and an additional 5-mins audio session just after lunch.
Within the last decade, the military has taken a strong approach to monitoring soldier’s wellness and well being. With the tempo and deployment schedule of today's military, some soldiers are having difficulty with one or more of the dimensions of wellness. The quiz we took is very similar to a series of questions we must now answer annually, and submit to be monitored. While I consider these quizzes and questions to be a useful tool, I feel I maintain a good self awareness regarding well being. Sometimes these questions are redundant, not providing useful feedback.
The sessions consist of mindfulness activities like a raisin exercise meditation, a sitting meditation, a walking meditation, a body scan, and yoga (Baer, 2006). There is also an all-day silent retreat (van der Velden, et al., 2015). Each week, participants are given homework, which they are to practice every day between sessions. Participants should be in remission from depression.
Before initially watching the Ted talk show during class, to me, “self-care” made me think of taking care of one’s health and wellbeing the best one possibly can. It never crossed my mind that “self-care” could possibly or even in a fraction, be related to one’s psychological health rather just physical health. It astonishes me how little attention one pays to one’s psychological health. After completing my Emergency Self-Care Worksheet and my card, I just realized how easily it is to get off track from practicing good self- care in order to maintain a balanced life and overall health on a daily basis. This activity worked as more of an enlightenment to a concept of self-care that I was familiar with and knew was keen on improving ones health,
Please arrive 30 minutes before the first session to prepare the space. In advance, or on arrival, the facilitator will receive a schedule with appointments as well as time for walk-ins. The relaxation specialist typically sees six to eight people back-to-back with a ten minute “break” after each set. The break provides a buffer for those who may have been late for their appointment. After each session, the participant will receive both a handout with step-by-step instructions of the technique as well as a feedback form. Approximately one half to two thirds of the time slots should be dedicated appointments, the others, walk-ins. Here’s an example of a possible
TheNational Center for Telehealth and Technology created a T2 mood tracker for military service personnel to keep track of any behavior charges they experience, particularly after returning from combat duty. In addition, the T2 mood tracker has proven to be so effective in keeping track of military personnel daily emotions that civilians are now using the device (“National center”, n.d.).For that reason, I have decided that the T2 Mood Tracker would be an appreciate tool for monitoring and tracking my level of feeling overwhelmed. the T2 mood tracker is easy to use since it also comes with a clock component located in the setting area of the application (app) that is helpful in reminding me to monitor and track my daily emotions. Moreover,
The Dundee Stress State Questionnaire (DSSQ). This questionnaire is concerned with measuring intrinsic motivation and achievement-oriented motivation with regards to doing the Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART) test (Sjöstedt, 2012). The first of which (DSSQ) asked participants questions concerning their motivation to complete the (SART). The (SART) measured the response time in participants that were engaged in the activity. These participants were from two categories; meditators and non-meditators. Results showed meditators scored higher in intrinsic motivation for the task itself. Motivation has been proven to positively affect performance, showing that the participants who were more intrinsically motivated performed better (Cardena & Sjöstedt & Marcusson-Clavertz, 2015).
