WHAT IS IT
Reading: What is Holistic Development?
Holistic Development refers to human development that is meant to involve all
the aspects of a person. This is development designed to accommodate physical
development, Intellectual growth, emotional development, social development and
spiritual development.
 Physical development – the process of physical growth in which (height,
length, mass etc.) of an individual increases including the five physical
senses.
 Intellectual development – deals with thinking and mental process which
further divided into six classes; knowledge, comprehension, application,
analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
 Emotional development – it refers to the children’s growing ability to identify
and understand their own feelings, accurately read and understand the
feelings of others, manage the way they feel, shape the way they behave,
develop empathy for others, and build and keep good relationships with
friends, family and others.
 Social development – refers to how a child develops friendships and other
relationships, as well as how a child handles conflict with peers. It is the
manner by which an individual interacts with other individuals or group of
individuals.
 Spiritual development – is a process through which a child develops proper
attitudes or behaviors towards the other people in the society, based on
various things such as social and cultural norms, laws, and rules. It is the
attributes of a person’s consciousness and beliefs, including values and
virtues that guide and put meaning into a person’s life.
When you look at a person and try to understand this individual, it is always
good to consider this five aspects and what it is about this person that makes him or
her unique from yourself and from others. Understanding a person holistically means
that one aspect cannot be seen in isolation from the whole person. One must see
how the interplay of all five aspects occurs within an individual. It is the psychological
or how thinking, feeling, and behaving interacts and happens in a person. This
holistic approach in viewing a person is emphasized in education, medicine, spiritual
development, relationships, and in one person’s overall wellness.
Therefore, holistic development is a process of self-actualization and learning
that combines an individual’s, physical (physiological), Mental (intellectual), social,
emotional (psychological), and spiritual growth.

WHAT’S MORE
Directions: Read and comprehend the following situation given below and answer the
questions that follow.
For the past three nights, Therese has not been getting enough sleep
from her usual eight hours because of her forthcoming final exams. Today is the
day of her final exams. She wakes up feeling drowsy and with a headache. Her
body feels like a ton, and she has to literally drag herself out of the bed to get up
and prepare for school. She takes a shower, dresses up quickly, bypasses and
ignores her sister Christine, who is looking at her quizzically, and her parents at
the breakfast table. Immediately, the family gets affected by Therese’s behavior.
Christine is thinking her sister is having a bad mood; she thinks Therese woke
up on the wrong side of the bed, and therefore ignores her as well. Her mom
thinks she is uptight about the final exams, mentions about it, but was just given
a stare by Therese who mumbles that she is okay but just tense about the
exams. Her dad simply looks at her, gives some comforting words of support,
and continues with his breakfast.
In school, all the noise and chatter, and the pressure of taking the finals
so early in the morning agitated Therese. She is not smiling today, which is very
unlike her usual self. Her temper is short, irritable, and she is giving nasty looks
at people who continue to annoy her. She goes over her notes and book, tries to
memorize some phrases and concepts, but her throbbing headache makes it
almost impossible to cram. She thought of taking some pain reliever earlier, but
decided a can of her favorite caffeine-laden carbonated cola drink would help,
but this is providing her very little relief. She slams the book and lays her head
on the table. Therese feels miserable. She feels unsure of herself and unhappy.
She is tense and nervous. Her seatmate stays away from her, although her
seatmate tries to strike up a conversation, Therese just move her head in
response. However, deep inside, she knows what is affecting her and tries to put
things under control. She starts to pray silently, and when the bell rang, she
raises her head and faces the day, and the final exams. Although still feeling
drowsy, she calms herself down and mentally prepares for what is up ahead.
Questions:
1. If you were one of Therese’s classmates, how would you feel and how would
you react to what you are witnessing?
2. Identify and explain the five aspects of a whole person in relation to the details
of Therese’s story.
3. What is your conclusion?

WHAT’S NEW
Directions: Read and reflect “The Story of the Two Wolves”. Notice the symbolism
that the two wolves stand for. Answer the questions below after reading the story.
The Story of the Two Wolves
One
evening
an
old
Cherokee told his grandson about a
battle that goes on inside people.
He said, "My son, the battle
is between two wolves inside us
all" "It is a terrible fight and it is
between two wolves. One is evil - he
is anger, envy, sorrow, regret,
greed, arrogance, self pity, guilt,
resentment, inferiority, lies, false
pride, superiority, and ego." He
continued, "The other is good - he is
joy, peace, love, hope, serenity,
humility, kindness, benevolence,
empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on
inside you - and inside every other person, too." The grandson thought about it for
a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?" The old
Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed".
Process Questions:
1. What do the two wolves stand for?
2. How do you nurture your thoughts?
3. Why is it that we should nurture our positive/good thoughts?
4. How are you aware of the two different opposing “wolves” operating within your
mind, one of which leads to pain and diminished sense of life and the other to a
joyous, meaningful, and fulfilling life?
5. When was the time you feel disappointed by the choice of behavior because you
knew that there was a more positive option but you just didn’t choose it?
11
WHAT IS IT
Reading: The Power Triad: Thoughts, Feelings, and Behavior
 Knowing which wolf to feed is the first step towards recognizing you have control
over your own self. Have you ever had thoughts, feelings or acted in ways that
were unacceptable to yourself but felt powerless to control?
 The purpose of this story is to help you find ways to manage your mind so that
you can live your life more in accordance with what your own judgment says is
best for you. As we grow up, we gradually become aware of the many things in
the external world which are largely beyond our ability to control.
 These include other people in general and most events in our lives. Initially this is
difficult to accept, but a more shocking realization is that there are many things
about ourselves that we seem powerless to control.
 Some of these are our own thoughts, feelings, and actions which unfortunately
can be the source of much distress. It may be thoughts such as “I cannot stop
hating my teacher for not giving me high grades.” It may involve an emotion e.g.
“My girlfriend left me and I cannot stop feeling sad, lonely and unloved.” It can
also be in the form of a behavior such as the inability to control one's craving for
food such as cakes and chocolates.”
But are we indeed really powerless to control our own maladaptive thoughts,
feelings and actions? The grandfather’s answer "The one you feed" is deceivingly
simple. The results of psychological research indicate that there are at least four
important concepts or ideas implied by the answer:
1. The mind is not the unitary entity it seems to us but consists of different
parts. For example in the story there are the two wolves and the “you” that
chooses between them.
2. These parts of the mind/brain can interact and be in conflict with each other
i.e. the two wolves fight for dominance over our mind and behavior.
3. The “you” has the ability to decide which wolf it will feed.
4. Having made a choice, “you” can decide specifically how to “feed” or nurture
the selected wolf.
12
WHAT’S MORE
Directions: Study the thought cycle diagram below. Answer briefly the question that
follow.
When we encounter
stressful situations, sometimes we
may tell ourselves negative things
that only increase or maintain our
stress. Research shows that our
thoughts affect our feelings, which
then affect our behavior.
Here’s an example: You are
studying for a midterm. You just
took a quiz in class and received
a poor grade.
The following unhealthy
cycle occurs:
You can reduce stress by tracking
your thoughts and becoming more
aware of how they affect your
mood and your actions.
Increasing awareness is the first
step in making a change for the
better! You have the power to
change your thoughts so that they
are more positive and lead to
feeling better and making healthy
choices.
Here’s an alternative,
more positive cycle using the
same example:
“I must be stupid.
I’m definitely
going to fail this
exam.”
Choosing not to study
and hanging out with
friends instead.
Sad
Frustrated
Stressed
“I know I am smart
enough to do well
on this exam. The
quiz grade didn’t
really reflect what
I know.”
Going to office hours and
studying in the library.
Getting enough sleep.
Encourage
Confident
Motivated
1. Which of the two cycles do you prefer (the unhealthy cycle or the positive cycle)
to have a good life?

ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY/IES
Directions: Read and comprehend the following.
People often think that the feelings they experience are caused by external
events, situations, and the actions of others, but it is what we think about these
things that really determines how we feel
• Specifically, it is our thoughts and beliefs about the situation or person that makes
us feel and respond the way we do.
• Thoughts come automatically to us and we are often not conscious of how or what
we are thinking
• There are 3 kinds of automatic thoughts: neutral, positive, and negative
• If we feel distressed, it is often because we are thinking particularly negative
thoughts that contribute to us feeling distressed
• If we want to improve how we feel, we need to begin by becoming more aware of
what we are thinking and changing our thoughts
Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.
- Mahatma Gandhi
