My Life By Choosing The Right Path For Mental And Physical Wellness

This is a summary of Part 2 (chapters two through five) of The Nurture Effect by Anthony Biglan, PhD. Chapter two is titled ‘Nurturing Families.’ As one might imagine the chapter revolves around the topic of family. It discusses the importance of nurturing development during pregnancy and the first two years of the child’s life. The Nurse-Family Partnership program is talked about as a great solution for poor single teenage mothers. As the chapter continues it goes into topics related to the development of young children and adolescents. Specifically, emotional regulation and nurturing young children as well as the power of attuned, attentive interactions and the

My personal goals are centered on healing. In this world of decreasing resources and increasing and ever diverse populations, there are unmet needs, confusions, and misunderstandings—the very stuff of conflicts and wars. It has been my experience and observation that what the world (and especially me) needs most is a transformation that involves healing, which I believe can lead to a greater measure of peace. That is to say, I have come from a heritage that is troubled with addictions and the abuse and generational cycles of violence that so often accompany addictions. However, I am a survivor, and I continually strive to go forward healing from this past. In time, I came to acknowledge my need for skills in conflict transformation and peace

The third section of this article is about methods to nurture the three routes to happiness.

Nowadays, it seems that we are too busy making a living that we tend to forget how to make a meaningful life. We are all dreaming of some magical things will happen instead of enjoying a beautiful little thing happens around us. The main thing is we don’t know if we will wake up tomorrow when we go to sleep tonight. Therefore, rather than hardly put off a living, reminds ourselves to enjoy every minute of our live as if it is the last minute. Denise Levertov, the author of the poem “Living”, illustrates the philosophy of living a simple life is to live entirely in the present without thinking about what will happen next in the future. The reason for that philosophy is because happiness is not what you have but how you feel toward what you have and how you accept it.

It is important for individuals to take control of their health and wellbeing. This is achieved through personal vitality aimed at creating an objective that summarizes one’s health and thus assist in improving their health. Therefore, through a holistic evaluation an individual is able to create a synthesis of their personal health across all aspects of wellness and thus get the possible actions they should take. As such, the holistic evaluation gives an effective measure of the overall vitality by a robust picture of one’s health, where it is going as well as the actions that should be taken. Personal vitality also provides a measure of value creation in health.

Success to me is definitely an abundance of wealth; however, I believe that my strive towards this means so much more. My hard work will not equivocate to the stereotypical desire for materialistic happiness. I will need a lot more than that in life, because I know that true success is to provide for the people you love in order for them to be successful as well. Working hard to earn as much money as possible will allow me to help my parents buy the house of their dreams. Someday I will help my children go to any college of their choice no matter the cost. I want to be so financially successful that no one in my family will ever have to lose an great opportunity simply because we cannot afford it.

I decided to read the entire book (349 pages) titled, Flourish, by Martin E.P. Seligman. He sectioned his book into two parts, “A New Positive Psychology” and “The Ways to Flourish.” The first part of the book, Seligman discusses his journey to discover the concept of “positive psychology.” A man who was a part of an anonymous foundation contacted him and presented Seligman with hefty funds for an opportunity of a lifetime—to study and research any subject he wishes and report on it. He chose the topic, “Positive Psychology” as the subject he would then focus a substantial amount of his time and research on. In doing so, he was able to find scientific reasoning for how people achieve happiness in their lives. Once Seligman takes the time and space to explain his concept of flourishing and positive psychology, he then focuses the second part of his book on how to implement and maintain those concepts in your life.

Rather than meeting with a coach, people can join web based support communities. In a study to identify websites of this nature, “Sites were defined as online social health activity networks if they had the ability to (1) actively find physical activity partners or activities for the user, (2) offer dynamic, real-time tracking or sharing of social activities, and (3) provide virtual profiles to users.” (Nakhasi, A., Shen, A. X., Passarella, R. J., Appel, L. J., & Anderson, C. A. M., 2014) With these measures, over 13 websites were identified, all of which have a role in changing the way that people receive support in their health endeavors. Further, even the act of looking at fitspo online was encouraging, comedian Bo Sellers was quoted in a USA Today article stating, "I looked at fitspo every night before bed and every morning when I was getting in shape, it was a very big part of my regimen. It kept me going." (Hilary, S.,

Another positive lifestyle choice that I make is to do my best at school and always aim for A’s, and the reason I do this is because I want to have a good GPA to get accepted in college.

When I was growing up, I remember my family situation as extremely chaotic. I was one of eight children and my father and mother had little time to devote to me individually. Most of the time they spent trying to earn enough to support us with their meager resources. I was often called upon to act as a surrogate mother to my siblings. I felt I had little time to develop my own unique perspective and voice when I was very young. Even as a preschooler I remember doing chores to help out at home. However, this situation did foster some positive aspects of my character. I learned to be mature at an early age and gained a sense of competence because of my responsibilities. But I also was taught put the needs of others second to my own. I feel that I did not learn to value my own, legitimate desires to an adequate degree as a young girl and have only recently acquired a true sense of worth [THESIS].

Conventional wisdom says that in order to create a happy and successful life for yourself, you need to go to school, get good grades, and obtain a college education. Only then will you be financially secure and have a high quality lifestyle. This is a common misconception many people have, but it 's only because this is the belief they were taught growing up. Yes, collage can be a great vehicle to help you pursue the career you want, but if college isn 't a necessitate for you, there 's no need to pay thousands of dollars, get into serious debt, and have a career that you 're not happy with. Life is way too short to spend your time working at a job you don 't enjoy. People usually find what career they want, then they learn how to pursue
