WELL 150 Principles of Wellness

This is a comprehensive course focused on the various components of health, wellness, and fitness. Topics include an introduction to six dimensions of wellness, the transtheoretical model (TTM) of behavior change, stress and stress management, sexual health, drug and alcohol use, and time management.
Students will explore identifiable attitudes and behaviors needed to establish a lifelong pattern of health and wellness and develop a personal behavior change project to practice applying concepts and strategies for improving and/or enhancing one’s health. One key goal of the behavior change project is to help students understand that behavior change is a slow process that can lead to improved health outcomes when realistic, timely, measurable, and specific goals.
As Well 150 sections partially fulfill general education physical activity requirements, students will participate in a fitness assessment and regular physical activity, in and out of class.
