Drivers:For students to experience behaviour change first handTo walk a mile (or a few metres at least) in their clients' shoes To reflect on concepts of behaviour change and motivationTo reflect on how the experience can inform their efforts to motivate clients to change their health behaviour
Outcomes are that students:Realise how difficult behaviour change can beBecome more person-centred in their approach with clientsBecome more self-awareLife is what happens to you while you are busy making other plans
Problem: I am over committed with work, study and family, which leaves me sleep deprived and with no time to exercise, and this makes me feel overwhelmed, anxious and exhausted.
Goal: I will go to bed at 10.30 pm each night and get up at 6.30 am (8 hours) and I will use the treadmill for 3 x 30 minute sessions per week.
