Holistic Health

A. Performing a One-minute Exercise

Struck by this Covid-19 pandemic, people have become more aware and
so concerned with their health. Many believe that one of the best measures to
beat this killer illness is to strengthen our health. With our present situation,
attaining holistic health should be everybody’s goal. At this point of your life
you have many health concerns that need to be addressed. You need to develop
different dimensions of your health. You also need coping skills to be able to
face the challenges of adolescent life. Correct health information, a positive
attitude, healthy practices and desirable coping skills will help you attain and
maintain holistic health.

In this time of pandemic, people, especially children, are advised to stay

at home to avoid being infected by the corona virus and to remain safe. Being
at home, most children and adolescents are hooked at using gadgets and
playing online games without realizing that they already forget to have a
physical exercise. Now is your chance to do that.

Directions: Perform a one-minute exercise. You can do a zumba dance or

calisthenics or any physical activity that you want. Do some stretching or
walking. Don’t forget to pray before and after doing the activity. After doing
so, drink a glass of water and relax. When you are done, answer the
following questions:
1. What do you feel after performing the physical exercises?

As an adolescent, your personal health now becomes your responsibility.

Every day you make health decisions so it is very important that you know the

practices today as well as in the past, will greatly affect the status of your
future health.

Notice the health habits and practices listed above. Remember: In order to be
truly healthy, you must be Holistically Healthy. This means that you are
healthy in all dimensions physically, mentally, emotionally, socially and morally
or spiritually. Health is the well-being of your body, mind, and your relationship
with others.

It is important for you to know the meaning of holistic health. It is harmony

and balance in all aspects of one’s health - physical, mental, emotional, social, and
moral-spiritual. Our mind and body send us signals, such as symptoms, if
something is wrong with our health. Students must know that these signals must
be addressed right away to ensure balance of the five dimensions of health.

Physical health includes the state of the body, its composition,

development, functions, and maintenance. It is also associated with our physical
needs for proper nutrition, activity, shelter, and protection from harm. Physical
health enhances and serves as a basis for achieving wellness in the other
dimensions.

The following practices will promote physical health:

To keep the body and mind energized, eat nutritious food.

To prevent eating disorders, avoid skipping meals or overeating.
To cleanse the body, drink 8-10 glasses of water a day.

To increase the immunity and endurance levels of the body, maintain

fitness by exercising.

To detect illness at an early stage, have regular checkups.

To enhance adolescent’s growth and development, have at least 7

hours of uninterrupted sleep daily.

To prevent unhealthy consequences of addiction, avoid taking

addictive substances.
Mental health refers to the cognitive ability and skills to improve one’s
quality of life. It is the ability to reason out, analyze, evaluate, create, and make
rational decisions.
Here are some ways to attain good mental health:

Set realistic goals.

Look at every opportunity with an open mind.

Know the demands and expectations from you.

Maintain a positive outlook when dealing with problems/conflicts.

Emotional health refers to the ability to accept and cope with one’s own
and others’ feelings. Emotions affect almost all aspects of one’s life including
decision- making. Awareness of the signs and symptoms of emotional problems is
very important.

To help one attain emotional health, the following will help:

Be aware of and accept one’s strength and weaknesses.
 Handle stress and seek help, if needed.

Develop strong communication networks among family, friends, and

peers.

Social health refers to the ability to build and maintain harmonious/

satisfying relationships. Being socially accepted enhances emotional well-being.
The following help one attain social health:

Increase interaction with other people.

Improve interpersonal communication skills.

Assume a positive self- image.

Interact with different types of people.

Accept and understand different cultural norms.

Moral-spiritual health refers to one’s faith, beliefs and values. Being
morally and spiritually healthy is also looking for the meaning and purpose of life.
There are no recommended ways to help attain moral-spiritual health. It is more
about looking within oneself deeply and understanding one’s existence and faith.
Moral-spiritual health, together with the other dimensions, will help you attain
holistic health.

or habit and (X) if it does not.

9-10 - Excellent Keep it up!
7-8 - Very satisfactory
5-6 - Satisfactory
3-4 - Fair

change and correct
your health habits and practices.
B. Directions: The health dimensions are interrelated. However, some
activities develop a specific dimension more than others. What
dimension of health does each activity develop most? Write physical,
mental, emotional, social and moral-spiritual on the blank before

D. Directions. Discuss the interplay of health dimensions by writing an

example of your daily activities involving physical, mental, emotional,
social, and moral-spiritual health. Consider the example as your
guide.

Example:
If a boy is physically healthy by having flexible muscles, he can
play basketball with his friends without any difficulty. This participation
in a team- sport would boost his confidence in his abilities and thus
enhance his mental health by increasing his self-esteem. Also, since
basketball is a team-sport, interaction with other team members would
 encourage positive social friendship/relationships to be formed, thereby
enhancing his social health.
