Whole Health Education® is an evidenced based whole person approach to educating individuals about the cause and effect of disease from the five aspects of health; physical, nutritional, emotional, environmental and spiritual.™ ©
The interaction between educator and client involves taking a look at present lifestyle choices to discern how they may be participating in their overall health and well being. A self awareness of disease prevention through educated self care as it pertains to any specific health condition.
As a NIWH Certified Whole Health Educator™, I can facilitate the client in identifying choices and needs to make changes that are appropriate with their own personal values. I invite you into the process of your own healing and self-management.
Whole Health Education ® and Behavioral Engagement ™, is the first patient education and health coaching model developed, tested and utilized in clinical settings. The model encourages and supports shared decision making between physicians, patients and care givers to create the best possible health outcomes.
Dr. Harvey Zarren, MD, FACC, Medical Director, Department of Cardiac Rehabilitation, Union Hospital, the Principal Investigator for the Pilot Study, said "As a physician, I find that the educators are incredibly supportive in my attempt to help patients regain or maintain wellness. They reinforce knowledge, motivate patient behavior, and have the time to help remove barriers to wellness. Whole Health Education® is a very potent and valuable tool in helping patients transform their lives. It can be a very effective ally in the health care practitioner's efforts on behalf of patients.
