Sinopsis

A pioneer in the field of personal wellness, this unique text combines the most current health and fitness research with the most effective model for behavior change. Developed by psychologists James Prochaska and Carlo DiClemente, the stages of change model recognizes that individuals progress through very distinct stages of change on their way to improved well-being and that some techniques work better in some stages of change than in others.

Using this model as the basis for the text, the five stages of “readiness to change” are presented in the beginning of each chapter for students to assess their own readiness to change. Exercises and labs for each stage of change are then integrated throughout the text to accommodate for individual differences. This allows students to develop personalized behavior change programs, increasing the likelihood that they will adopt and maintain a lifestyle of wellness. Providing comprehensive and up-to-date coverage, this engaging text encourages students to internalize the wellness concepts presented.
