The Concept of Health
We can also see the rapid development of themovement of health promotion which is partlybut not wholly connected to the development of
medicine. Health promoters of various kinds play roles as
advisors and supporters to many modern people.And the commercial industry has followed in
these steps. Huge amounts of goods whichpurport to be beneficial for ones health havebeen marketed and successfully put up for sale.

The Concept of Health
Health, thus, is a notion primarily applicable to a
human being as a whole.
Bernhard Hring is a leading spokesman for a
notion of health including a spiritual dimension:
A comprehensive understanding of human
health includes the greatest possible harmony of
all of mans forces and energies, the greatestpossible spiritualization of mans bodily aspect
and the finest embodiment of the spiritual.

The Concept of Health
Health as well-being
It is an important aspect of health that the
body and mind are well, both in order and
function. But we may ask for the criteria of
such well-functioning. How do we know that
the body and mind function well? When is the
body in balance?

The Concept of Health
Health as well-being
A traditional answer is that the persons
subjective well-being is the ultimate criterion.
Simply put: when a person feels well, then he
or she is healthy.
Thus, the ultimate criterion of a persons
health is his or her present or future well-
being.

The Concept of Health
WHO Definition of Health
It was formulated at the start of WHOsconstitution, which was adopted on 22 July
1946. Health is a state of complete physical, mental
and social well-being and not merely the
absence of disease and infirmity, OfficialRecords of the World Health Organization, 2(1948, p. 100), Geneva.

The Concept of Health
WHO Definition of Health
This definition characterizes an ideal state of ahuman being, and a state which is almost
never reached by any human in the world. It is a utopian definition (idealistic), which
could hardly be used in the context of
ordinary health care. It is also highlydebatable whether it is at all adequate tocapture the notion of health.

The Concept of Health
a. The health concept used in clinical practice isrelated to vital goals and not just to survival.Moreover, health is something over and above
the absence of disease (also when the conceptof disease is interpreted in the holistic sense.)
b. The health concept used in the context ofgeneral health promotion is, I argue, muchmore naturally interpreted along the holisticlines than along the biostatistical lines.

Developing a Balanced You
Stephen Coveys Four Human Intelligences
This offers a holistic opportunity to enrich our lives,
as we seek to develop these facets of our lives - mind
(IQ), body (PQ), spirit (SQ) and heart (EQ).
By developing all four of the human intelligences
discussed, we can have a greater impact on people
around us, and effect greater change in the causeswe fight for.

Developing a Balanced You
Stephen Coveys Four Human Intelligences
If you develop each of the intelligences (IQ, EQ, PQand SQ), then you will find more fulfillment in life and
in fact will be more influential and successful in whatyou live for.
Throughout the last part of the twentieth century thetalk was about IQ (Mental Intelligence), and the focus
was on the importance of developing your own IQ tobetter interact in business and relationships.
Its a good framework to ensure that your personal
growth is balanced.

Developing a Balanced You
Stephen Coveys Four Human Intelligences
As years progressed the understanding and
acceptance of what is labeled EQ (Emotional
Intelligence) gathered some traction. The substance
of EQ relates to the emotional capacity of people to
interact with others and is related to self-esteem,
interpersonal relationships and self-assertiveness. Covey also highlights PQ (Physical Intelligence) and
SQ (Spiritual Intelligence).

PQ is defined as the intelligence related to the
natural aspects of the functions of your body,
Example, the process of digesting food, or the
absorption of vitamin D into the blood;
So to improve your PQ is to improve your fitness and
your overall physical health.

Developing a Balanced You
Stephen Coveys Four Human Intelligences
The spiritual intelligence is the glue that holds the
other three intelligences together and it, 'represents
our drive for meaning and connection with the
infinite' (Covey, 2004: 53).
Our spiritual intelligence helps us discover the
overarching principles that characterize our life, andthe principles that in fact enrich us.

Stephen Coveys Four Human Intelligences
Let me give you an example of how this plays out in reallife.
You may be a dedicated manager of a bakery franchise andyou have a passion to increase your business and focus onyour own development.
Firstly, you might review literature on baking, small businessleadership, accounting techniques, etc - you are choosingto increase your IQ.
Secondly, you might decide to have a jog every afternoon,because you notice you are growing physically wearykeeping up the long hours in the kitchen - you are nowworking on your PQ.

Developing a Balanced You
Stephen Coveys Four Human Intelligences:
You may be a dedicated manager of a bakery franchise and youhave a passion to increase your business and focus on your owndevelopment.
Thirdly, you notice the need to grow your emotional intelligence (EQ),because of the regular conflict resolution needed betweenemployees, and the assertiveness that is longed for, especiallywhen it comes to negotiating rent and expectations with shoppingcentre management.
Finally, in the process, you take a day or two off the busy schedule,
walk up a mountain, with the fresh air on your face, and youcontemplate your place in the bigger scheme of things. As youspend this time reflecting on the principles that characterize yourlife, you find yourself thanking God for the blessings he's given youover the years - this is about your SQ.

important by Covey?

The Coveys 4 Intelligence Dimension
The answer is spiritual intelligence.Why? Because spiritual intelligencebecomes the source of guidance of the
otherthree. It is our life purpose and meaning that
inspire our other areas of life. Ironically,
it may also be the least talked aboutamong the four and the least wedevelop.
