Changing Attitudes Regarding Disease, Health and Wellness
[ send me this paper ]
This
6 page report discusses the ways that attitudes have changed
regarding perceptions of disease, health, and wellness. At one
time, virtually all disease was seen as something shameful and
related to some type of lack of character or strength in an
individual. Those beliefs than evolved into an unwavering faith
in modern medicine and the assumption that anything a medical
professional prescribed in terms of drugs or procedures was the
only way to be healthy and physically whole. As a result,
individual belief patterns regarding health and wellness became
based on fear, shame, and treatment rather than on wholeness,
wellness, and personal decision-making. That attitude has begun
to change and it is not a moment too soon. Bibliography lists 6
sources.
