Wellness and Work in the 21st Century

Everything on the earth has a purpose, every disease an herb to cure it, and every person a mission. This is the Indian theory of existence.    ~ Morning Dove   Salish  1888-1936



My approach to employment counseling has always been to help my client get on the path to their true destiny, to find their mission or at least be moving in the right direction. Employment counseling today however, is far more than helping someone find the right job. Counselors need to be healthy if they want to help others in the healing process. Both counselor and client benefit from a holistic approach, understanding the interplay of body, mind and spirit.
 

BIO

He currently is the Lead Instructor for the National Employment Counseling Association’s “Working Ahead, Moving Forward™” (GCDF) trainings and the current president of NECA.
 
Wellness Exercises

  • Build exercise into your daily routine.  Walk up steps rather than taking an escalator or elevator if you have the choice.
  • Feeling angry or stressed out? Take three deep breaths. It becomes physiologically impossible to stay angry or be stressed out.
  • Take a wellness break. Close your eyes and visualize yourself in a beautiful place (On a tropical island with warm breezes or in a spring field of wild flowers overlooking a mountain lake.)  You will instantly become relaxed. Your body does not know the difference between what you actually experience or what you visualize.
