b. Review

Class, what was our lesson last meeting? Sir, last meeting we talked about stress and
stress management?

That’s correct! Now, how do you understand
stress and what are the concepts associated
with it?
Stress is a psychological condition and our
body’s response to a specific challenge or
demand. It is associated with either positive
and negative response: sad, lonely, angry,
happiness and excitement to name a few.

We were also able to talked about eustress
and distress. How would you differentiate the
two?
Eustress is a short-term stress and a positive
type of stress and we need this in our
everyday life to be motivated. Distress on the
other vein talks about negative stress that
triggers unproductivity and unpleasant
emotions.

Okay. How are you going to manage your
stress to prevent it from worsening?
By following effective stress management
techniques and creating our own coping
mechanism. The following are some
techniques to follow:
o Keep a positive attitude
o Be assertive than aggressive
o Accept that there are events you
cannot control
o Learn to manage your time more
effectively.
o Set limits appropriately and say no to
requests that would create excessive
 stress in your life.
Very good! Now, I am assured that you
learned something from our discussion last
meeting.

a. Analysis

Based on our activity, what do you think is Sir, our lesson for today is all about grief and
our lesson for today? healthy adulting.

Yes! You almost go it! Our topic for today is

all about the importance of grieving and
healthy aging, to be exact.

Class, do you know that grief is associated Yes sir. Stress links the emotional and
with stress? physical aspects of grief. The grief we feel if
 we lost someone results to stress.

What is grief? Grief is an intense emotion from a loss,

disaster or misfortune. According to Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
grief is a normal response to loss during or
after a disaster or other traumatic event.
Common grief reactions include:
 Shock, disbelief, or denial
 Anxiety
 Distress
 Anger
 Periods of sadness
 Loss of sleep and loss of appetite
Some people may experience multiple losses
during a disaster or large-scale emergency
event. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic,
you might not be able to be with a loved one
when they die, or unable to mourn someone’s
death in person with friends and family. Other
types of grief include unemployment, or not
making enough money, loss or reduction in
support service, and other changes in your
lifestyle.

What are the stages of grieving?

1. Stage one- denial, shock or disbelief.
It begins after hearing the death of a
loved one. Manifestation maybe
crying confusion, stress or not
believing the death. It typically last
about two weeks.
2. Stage two – despair, numbness,
apathy. It begins after the survivor
have realized the death and usually
lasts one year. It is common for
survivors to experience loss of
appetite, insomnia, and crying spells.
3. Stage three – recovery and resolution.
It occurs one year or fifteen months
after the death. Survivor is completely
over the emotion of death but
sometimes feel depression. Sadness
will occasionally occur. The survivor

Do you know that grieving, on a positive
note, plays an important part in ourlives?
Precisely! In connection, grieving is not
forgetting at all. Nor is drowning in tears
alone. Healthy grieving results in an ability to
remember the importance of our loss- but
with a newfound sense of peace, rather than
searing pain.
Moving on, what is dying and death?
We have different stages of dying. What are
those?
may recall positive memories of the
deceased be able to return to normal
activities, accept death, and try to
move on with life.
Yes sir! According to University of
Washington, grieving such as losses is
important because it allows us to “free-up”
energy that is bound to the lost person, object
or experience- so that we might re-invest that
energy elsewhere. Until we grieve effectively,
we are likely to find reinvesting difficulty; as
part of us remains tied to the past.
Sir, dying is the process of approaching
death. While death is the end of life.
1. Denial – most dying individuals when
informed of terminal illness refuse to
believe. It is a healthy response to a
stressful situation, and it acts as a
temporary buffer to help protect the
individual.
2. Anger – after denial of terminally ill
individuals, they typically become angry,
resentful, and hostile. Anger may be
directed at loved ones and expressed
through shouting, complaining, and
bitterness.
3. Bargaining – typically occurs throughout
most of the dying process, characterized
by the terminally ill individual bargaining

4. Depression – terminally ill individual
5. Acceptance – the last stage. In this stage,
Among the five stages of dying and death,
which do you think is/are the hardest stage/s?
with guilt. This is the stage where you ask for
Brilliant! However, despite all the challenges
we are facing, the people that we lost along
the way and the unexpected twist and turns of
life, we must channel ourselves to look for
new hope, new inspiration and fresh start. We
should not enclose ourselves with the past
instead, strive hard and make it your
motivation to go on with life.
Negativities aside, healthy aging is highly
encouraged to have a bright and stress-free
future ahead of us. So, after we grief, after we
mourn, it is necessary to get back ourlives to
the rail. Engagement in healthy activities and
diet should always be practiced.
So class, what is healthy aging?

such as physician or God.
bounce back and forth from bargaining to
depression stages. Realizing bargaining
did not work, they become depressed.
They begin to understand death is certain
feelings of sadness and depression is
overwhelming.
the person accepts the outcome of death.
Dying individual make psychological
arrangements, such as funeral arrangement
and writing a will. Children should
understand that dying people are afraid of
being alone, understanding these children
are inclined to make frequent visits or
contacting the terminally ill relative.
The hardest stage of grieving is the
Bargaining phase and it goes hand in hand
miracle to happen. But depression stage is
also one of the hardest. It is where you feel
extreme emotional lows and hopelessness.
Dying individual tends to go back and forth
in these two stages.

Amazing! Now, can you state the different
aging processes?
Sir, Aging is the process of becoming older.
It is a process that is genetically determined
and environmentally modulated.
Healthy aging, according to Pan American
Health Organization, is a continuous process
of optimizing opportunities to maintain and
improve physical and mental health,
independence and quality of life throughout
the life course.
Physical changes
a. Reaction deteriorates as people age. Body
senses diminish due to a loss of nerve
cells. A little short-term memory may be
lost but not intelligence.
b. Hearts may become less efficient when
aging, blood might not well circulate and
blood vessels may become clogged
causing increase blood pressure.
c. Older people have less protection from
communicable disease and prone to
develop chronic disease.
d. Lungs become less elastic when aging
and may lessen hold of air volume that
may lead to short of breath. This increases
risk of chronic bronchitis, emphysema,
and flu. Avoiding second hand smoke,
getting cold and wet during severe
weather, and exercising regularly
decrease this risk.
e. Bones decrease density and take longer to
heal broken bones when aging
Mental changes
People can lose short term memory as
they age and some develop dementia.
Dementia is a general decline on all areas of
mental functioning usually due to brain
disease or mental impairment. An aging

Okay! Aside from those processes we also
have habits which can promote health aging.
Habits which promote healthy aging
In all ages, people need to do something
worthwhile and have satisfaction in it to stay
healthy. Young people engage in school
activities, sports, and hobbies. In early and
middle adulthood, individuals may engage in
as parent, volunteers, or have a career outside
home. Individual of late adulthood may enjoy
satisfying hobbies and volunteer work. They
need something to love to stay healthy.
Studies show that having a pet to love and
care improves health.
What else?
Very good, class!
individual should work to stay mentally
sharp by using their mental skills, drink at
least 8 glasses of water a day, avoid alcohol
and drug abuse, and should be cautious and
avoid accidents that may affect mental
health.
Social changes
Aging individuals have the same
social needs as younger ones. Older people
who stay active socially have better mental
and physical health. Some older people suffer
from depression. This means they experience
feeling of hopelessness, sadness, or
helplessness. Exercise, therapy, and
prescription medication are used to treat
clinical depression.

f. Abstraction

To wrap up today’s lesson, it is indeed very

important to grief or to feel emotional lows at
times. It reminds us that we, people are just
bind by love and connections and we have
emotions that alters depending on the
circumstances. Those pains and tears have
reciprocity and those will remind us that life
is really like a wheel.

For me sir, I get along with them as long as I

If you are in grief or you are mourning
because something bad happened, how do you
deal everyday with people who do not know
your situation?
can. I know how to separate personal feelings
and dealing with other people socially and
professionally. It is also necessary to control
your emotions to avoid unintentional offenses
to anyone, especially if they don’t have any
idea what you are going through.

Brilliant! You got it right!
