Description of Christian Paths to Health and Wellness 3rd Edition:
God created people to be well in body, mind, and spirit-a unified and healthy whole. Christian Paths to Health and Wellness, Third Edition, helps undergraduate students explore key topics that affect their health and well-being and apply what they learn to their daily lives. This updated text examines wellness from a holistic perspective, delving into how students can thrive in body, mind, and spirit. Students will learn how to more fully understand God, themselves, and their purpose in life; have strong and healthy relationships with others; develop cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular fitness, and flexibility and mobility; have a healthy attitude toward their bodies, eat well, and manage weight properly; understand and apply good sleep hygiene to maximize alertness; and adopt emotionally healthy habits and deal with stress in a constructive way. All of this material is based on current research and is delivered through a faith-based perspective that will help students apply aspects of behavior modification as they learn how to take charge of the health of their bodies, minds, and spirits. Written by highly respected Christian academics, the text includes chapter objectives, a glossary that defines key terms from each chapter, and easy-to-read charts that highlight specific information. This latest edition also features a new web study guide that makes Christian Paths to Health and Wellness a particularly valuable and unique resource. For each chapter in the text, the web study guide supplies readers with an introductory self-assessment activity on the chapter’s topic; application and learning activities; self-reflection writing prompts to help students process the chapter’s content; suggested websites and readings for further exploration of the topic; and an interactive key terms quiz. (The web study guide is included with all new print books and some ebooks. For ebook formats that don’t provide access, the web study guide is available separately.) Christian Paths to Health and Wellness offers instructors free access to online ancillaries, including an instructor guide, a presentation package, and a test package. “This text,” says coauthor Peter Walters, “is a book about accepting our God-given roles and capacities. Then empowered by the Spirit of God, we can make healthy choices regarding our mind, body, and soul. The end result is what ancients called the good life,’ current academics call human flourishing,’ and what scriptures call shalom’.” “Personal wellness is often achieved through mental and physical discipline,” adds coauthor John Byl. “However, it is also important to open yourself to the power of God through the Holy Spirit. It is written in Bible that the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control’ (Galatians 5:22-23). Ideas related to the fruit of the Spirit have been woven through the text, and a couple of chapters offer brief vignettes on a particular fruit of the Spirit, which demonstrates how the Spirit heals and makes one well.” Christian Paths to Health and Wellness, Third Edition, will equip students with the knowledge and tools they need to adopt healthy lifestyles in all aspects of their lives. And that lifestyle will be pleasing to God and help them live out their purpose.
