I wrote this course and handpicked every one of the following exercises to help YOU!
- Working without interruptions or distractions will help it go faster
- Writing down your responses to each activity is more beneficial to truly process the material and activities
- It can be helpful to do this work as a group with someone leading the group through the steps, but its important to hold group discussions until everyone has defined his/her own goals.
- Group work requires a shared commitment to each other’s well-being and learning in the community space; it requires communication and negotiation and flexibility.
- Often, sharing personal experiences can enrich a discussion. It is important to me that this decision remains yours. Do not feel pressured to disclose if it makes you uncomfortable. How, when, and indeed if you bring in something from your own life is up to you.
- Online resources are listed at the end for those that prefer more guidance through the process
Course Description
The process of setting holistic goals involves examining all aspects of a person’s health and well-being. There is so much going on in the world today, and with the baggage of the past, it is difficult to know where to start and where to go from here!
Studies show that creating specific and time-bound goals for yourself drastically increases the likelihood that you will be successful. Based on the principles of Ikigai and Holistic Management, the self-assessment and reflection activities in this course will help you determine your values, passions, strengths, weaknesses, needs, areas for improvement, and resources available to you. These components are the foundation for creating your own personal holistic goals.
The coursework will guide you through the process of collaboration with a partner and/or group to determine your collective mission and values and develop a plan with systems that accommodate and support each individual’s goals as well. The groups missions, values, and comprehensive plan will provide direction for the group, criteria for monitoring progress, guidelines for communicating and troubleshooting, and protocols for re-evaluation and making adjustments.

These modules and the accompanying workbook have been adapted from- Holistic Management: A New Framework for Decision Making by Allan Savory with Jody Butterfield; Atina Diffley’s Quality of Life Tools and Systems For A Healthy Farming Partnership; & Manfred Max-Neef’s Fundamentals of Human Needs and Human Scale Development.
To assist with course evaluation with regard to goals and learning objectives, participants are requested to complete the Anxiety-Stress-Depression test. Then snap a screenshot of the results and share them with the instructor. This brief, 30-question test is not required; it is available online at: https://www.idrlabs.com/anxiety-stress-depression/test.php
