What Can the Wellness Inventory Do for Me?
The Wellness Inventory is a pioneering "whole
person" wellness program designed to help you gain personal
insight into your state of physical, emotional, and spiritual
well-being. The program, developed by HealthWorld Online and
wellness pioneer John W. Travis, MD, MPH, offers guidance and
tools to transform this new awareness into lasting changes in
your life, and a renewed sense of health and well-being. The
program can help you to:
Discover your wellness profile in 12 dimensions of your life.
Identify the areas in your life you are most motivated to
change.
Create a personalized wellness action plan.
Access tools and resources to help you reach your goals.
Create the desired changes in your life.
Track your progress in reaching a higher level of wellness.
Achieve a higher level of health, wellbeing and aliveness.
Key Features of the Program
The Wellness Inventory determines your state of balance in 12 key
areas of your life, which Dr. Travis called the "Wellness Energy
System." The program then identifies specific areas you are
motivated to change, and guides you in creating a personalized
wellness action plan. Finally, the Wellness Inventory provides
valuable tools, resources and services to help you reach your
wellness goals and bring more balance into your life.
Your personal experience of the Wellness Inventory program can be
summarized as a journey consisting of "5 Steps to Wellness".
Step 1: Take the Assessment
The Wellness Inventory is an educational process that raises your
awareness of the impact your behaviors, thoughts and attitudes on
your health and well-being as you take the assessment. The
assessment enables you to:
Assess yourself in 12 areas of personal wellness.
Determine your motivation for change in each of the 12 sections by
assessing your level of satisfaction with each of your answers.
Gain deeper understanding in key lifestyle areas through the
commentaries (when you are unclear about a statement).
Take multiple sessions to complete. You can log-off prior to
completing the assessment, save your answers, and return at a later
time to resume the test.
Step 2: Receive Your Wellness & Satisfaction Scores
Receive Wellness & Satisfaction Scores for each section as well as
overall scores for the entire assessment.
Your
Wellness Scores indicate your level of wellness in each of the
12 sections.
Your Satisfaction Scores indicate your readiness for change. Low
scores indicate the areas of your life you are most motivated to
change.
My Areas of Strength - Review your strengths as revealed by the
assessment.
Step 3: Create Your Personal Wellness Plan
The Wellness Inventory provides you with guidance in creating a
Personal Wellness Plan consisting of up to 10 action steps based
upon the areas you are most motivated to change (as reflected in
your Satisfaction Scores).
Features of the Wellness Action Plan include permission-based email
reminders (emails with your personal plan), as well as the ability
to edit and update your plan as necessary throughout the year.
Step 4: Tools to Help You Reach Your Wellness Goals:
