This module aims to equip you to be kind to yourself and better manage your own health and well-being. By going on a journey of self-discovery, you will learn more about your own physiological and psychological health and ways in which it can be enhanced. After implementing a healthier lifestyle intervention on yourself and in others around you in a health setting, you will have an increased appreciation of the challenges of inducing behaviour change in society.

Facilitated reflective sessions with the course tutor will allow you evaluate your own health and well-being, using physiological and physiological outcome assessments. This baseline information will be used to complete a needs assessment on yourself. Your own needs assessment will inform a case study where you will implement an intervention on yourself.

A lecture series will then provide an understanding of the main concepts of sport and exercise science and how these concepts can be applied to achieve a healthier lifestyle. These lectures will give specific guidance on how to enhance your own health and well-being, and how to apply these skills to others in a health setting. Each lecture will be accompanied by a reading list accessible through the University library.

Assessments will enable you to evidence your knowledge in a case study focusing on how you have ‘moved more and sat less’ in your own life. You will then implement your knowledge through an intervention completed on others and produce a report on how you have led them to adopt a more physically active lifestyle.
