Health Assessment

 Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about health. Our task is to write a blog post about what we have learnt this month.  

  • Taha tinana (physical wellbeing) physical well being is lifestyle behavior choices to ensure health and to live in a balanced state of body, mind, and spirit.  What can affect you physical well being? Poor physical well being can affect your mental health or it will increase developing your mental health. Poor mental health can deeply impact to your physical well being. How you can live a healthy physical well being is to doing exercise. Some more is to Maintain a healthy weight.
  • Engage in muscle strengthening (resistance) activities that involve all your major muscle groups two or more times a week.
  • Stay active all week long. 
  • Wear comfortable, properly fitting shoes.
  • Eat a well-balanced diet. 
  • Try to avoid lifting heavy objects. - if you keep lifting too heavy objects you might not grow properly. 


  • Taha hinengaro (mental wellbeing) mental well being is a state of well being that an individual realizes. What can affect your mental well being? 
  • childhood abuse, trauma, or neglect.
  • social isolation or loneliness.
  • experiencing discrimination and stigma. Stigma means disgrace, dishonor. 
  • social disadvantage, poverty or debt.
  • bereavement  losing someone close to you
  • severe or long-term stress. 
  • Avoiding to have and do these things will give you a really open mind and a good mental health. 

  • Taha wairua (spiritual wellbeing) Spiritual well being is a skill or an ability to experience and integrate the meaning and the purpose of life. What can affect your spiritual wellbeing? Poor spiritual well being is caused by having no respect and beliefs. Spiritual well being is one of the most important wellbeing because it can affect your whole entire life. You can overcome this by having beliefs like : You listen and believe to your parents because they are your eldest in the family.

  • Taha whānau (family wellbeing) or Social (wellbeing) Taha whanau or Social well being is having respect, empathy and tolerance for other people. Being able to manage emotions to suit the situation. What can negatively affect your Taha whanau or Social wellbeing? Spending too much time alone might give you a sickness called social phobia.  

 Louise and Josh have been best friends for the last 9 years. They both started at Hornby High School at the same time and were even in the same class. At the end of term 1, Josh started going out with a new student called Leon. Louise has felt really left out and frustrated with Josh since he started going out with Leon. Josh hardly spends any time with Louise anymore. This is one of the scenarios and I need to write how the main characters are being affected. As it says, Louise had fell really left our and frustrated with josh since he started spending more time with his other friend. I also need to write one how the main character can overcome it. Louise is feeling left out, it affects her social well being of taha whanau and it also effects his mental and emotional well being witch it taha hinengaro. The I have felt left out before but my friends came back for me. I overcame it by talking not to just my friends but to other people. This is the end of my blog post and I hope you like it. Here you go Miss Petrie FINISHED!

  1. Hi Alex you have attempted this really well. You are correct to say that Taha Tinana and Taha Wairua are connected however the assesment question has asked you to describe each area of Hauora seperately first. Your examples are correct but your description is not.
    Also for your scenario you need to say what areas of the characters wellbeing is being impacted.
    At this stage your work is high Achieved. If you use my advice to fix your work you could be graded at a Merit level. Please see me if you edit your work.
    Fantastic Effort Alex, welldone!
