What Is Holistic Learning?


You may have noticed in your school years that you would remember something just by writing it down. And that's probably due to your learning style. I'm Isabelle Simon a wellness and work place wellness educator and today we are going to learn what is holistic learning. Holistic learning is the process of mixing different learning styles in the process of education. Many of us we learn by seeing something. We see it, we will have a visual memory of it and we will remember it. We're visual learners. Some of us we will just hear something, somebody say something, we hear it on the radio and we remember it just like that. Or some of us need to actually be doing something, experimenting something in order to be able to remember it and learn it and that's called kinesthetic learning. So holistic learning combines hearing, I'm sorry hearing, seeing and doing. It also involves different parts of what constitutes the mindset of what we do. Let me explain. When the mind, the body and the spirit is involved your emotions are involved. You will tend to remember better. So in holistic learning you combine hearing, seeing, doing getting involved in what you do. And when you take all this and combine it and as a teacher I always make sure that I combine all those, these elements so that my students, the participants in the program remember better. That is what you call holistic learning. I hope that you've learned something today and I look forward to seeing you in one of my programs. I am Isabelle Simon your personal and workplace wellness educator and remember good health begins with good nutrition.
