As described in the Course Outline: “A short written report on a topic relevant to the material covered in the course”.



The topic for this report is ‘The Australian Wellness Guidelines for Adults’. Note that ‘Adults’ refers to both men and women but not women who are planning a pregnancy, are pregnant or are breastfeeding.


Although ‘Wellness’ as a concept is slowly seeping into the Australian vocabulary and culture, currently, there are no Australian Guidelines for Wellness. In the learning materials covering the Nutritional Aspects of Wellness, we went through the Australian Dietary Guidelines and in the learning materials covering the Physical Activity Aspects of Wellness, we went through the Australian Guidelines for Physical Activity and Sedentary Behaviour.



However, as you will see in the Week 8, 9 and 10 Learning Materials covering the Psychological Aspects of Wellness, similar Australian guidelines will not be covered because there are currently no Australian Guidelines for Psychological Health.


Therefore, your task is to create your own ‘Australian Wellness Guidelines for Adults’ by coming up with 9 Guidelines, which you think should be included in these guidelines” in terms of the Nutritional (3 Guidelines), Physical Activity (3 Guidelines) and Psychological Aspects (3 Guidelines) of Wellness.
