The Integrative Wellbeing Training Program

In UUI's new Integrative Wellbeing Training Program, you will discover fuller and deeper states of mental, emotional, bodily, and spiritual wellbeing. These manifest as the experience of present-moment awareness, love of oneself and others, joy and happiness, a sense of meaning and purpose in life, mindful living, physical health, the ability to manage stress, and profound satisfaction in the actualization of one's talents. In this program, you will explore the source of true holistic wellbeing, which is spiritual in nature, and that life is about actualizing our biological, mindal, and spiritual endowments

The Integrative Wellbeing Training Program offers two tracks:

• Personal Wellbeing Training Program - for individual practitioners of spiritual holistic living, and
• Integrative Wellbeing Coach and Transformer Training Program - for those who seek to serve society as integrative wellbeing coaches and transformers.

Both tracks will feature a core curriculum of five courses plus elective courses in the areas of specialization. The five core courses focus on the basic concepts and principles of Physical Wellbeing, Emotional Wellbeing, Intellectual Wellbeing, Spiritual and Soul Wellbeing, and Integrative Wellbeing. In addition, the program will eventually include courses in the areas of social, occupational, and environmental wellbeing.

The five core areas are described below: 

Emotional wellbeing is experienced as the ability to feel and express human emotions such as happiness, sadness and anger and to experience a sense of fulfillment in life. It means having the ability to love and be loved. Emotional wellness refers to the value level of human existence in which we are able to feel and sense higher states of being like optimism, self-esteem, love, self-acceptance, awe, and the ability to share feelings. 

The intellectual dimension of wellbeing is cultivated by stimulating mental activities. Our minds need to be continually inspired and exercised just as our bodies do. People who possess a high level of intellectual wellness tend to have an active mind and a desire for continuous learning. An intellectually well person uses the resources available to expand their knowledge and improve their skills throughout their lifetime. Keeping up-to-date on current events and participating in activities that arouse our minds are also important for intellectual fitness.

Integrative wellbeing describes a state of living in holistic equilibrium in which all the parts of the self (body, intellect, emotions, soul, and spirit) are well understood and expressed. The self-system is well-balanced and highly coordinated. It is characterized by discriminating awareness of the different parts of the self and and how they interact with each other to form a holistic system that performs along a spectrum ranging from poor health to radiant health. 

This heightened consciousness can lead to greater self-mastery which in turn allows us to be more fully present to life and people in our daily existence. Greater self-mastery leads to a state of non-resistance (relative freedom from stress) to life as it is. This resulting state of flow allows the self to be more present and aware  and to function optimally in the arenas of our life. 

The UUI Integrative Wellbeing Training Program rests on the supreme knowledge that each of us is a perfecting and loved child of God with an eternal destiny. This truth imbues our life with enormous meaning and value. It underlies the living experience of holistic wellbeing and forms the foundation of our moral and spiritual decision-making.
