Case Study 15





Physical Wellness Fun and Function Model

Ralph Goodman has made the physical dimension of wellness his focus at this time due to his doctor's advice to stay active. Ralph loves to walk and remembers when he was younger, walking 2-3 miles a day and mall walking during days of inclement weather. According to Ralph, the scenery during a walk and the fresh air make it possible for a walk to become valuable thinking time.

Ralph's advice for younger people is to stay active and to start exercising early, and he adds that the best way to find time for this is to watch less television. Ralph adds that living alone can be difficult especially when trying to stick to an exercise program or diet, but if you add the social component, it becomes a little easier.
