Case Study 29







Spiritual and Physical Wellness Fun and Function Model

Jeanne Schement feels her spiritual and physical wellness is the stronger and more developed of the dimensions of wellness. She learned spiritual wellness from her parents, who were Catholic and created a distinctive model to follow for spirituality. They modeled sharing the things that they learned and emphasized being truthful at all times. Jeanne reflects that a parent or mentor can have a tremendous impact on your choices when you are young, because it becomes a starting point in which other exciting ideas develop over time.

Jeanne also kept fit throughout her life; one of the sports that she loved to do is bowling. According to Jeanne, bowling is a formidable all over body exercise that demands coordination and a sense of quickness to make those high scores. Friendships develop easily when you are on a bowling team. Members of the team balance the sport with support and cheering for the entire team and it can be so much fun. Jeanne's philosophy is "that aging happens," but she finds that the aging process can be a little easier managed when enjoyed and shared with others.
