Customer Reviews

Joh n Travis gave us the Term Wellness
Dr. Travis gave us the term wellness and this new book challenges us to re-look at our wellness journey. As a wellness coach at a large hospital system I am always looking for new ways to challenge individuals to get involved or to re-involve individuals with what's really important in life.

Travis and his wellness wheel concept has been challenging us for years and this book again delivers on that promise. Many of my clients have stopped really living and are going through each day and the routines that now define their path. Travis has helped me pull clients from the daily "rat wheel" through use os his wellness wheel and back on the wellness journey we call life.

Different
I had to purchase this for a class in my rn to bsn program. The book did succeed in helping me to think about my health and wellness in a more holistic fashion, but a lot of the questions/statements were a bit odd and overly reflective of the authors' personal opinions. the booklet gives the impression that it was authored by a flower child.
