Title: THE WELL-BEING WAY PROCESS: RE-CLAIMING WELLNESS
Author: Lewis, Patrick J
Description: This paper is an evaluation of the Well-Being Way process as a means to enhance wellness. Using literature to re-claim wellness; personal growth, subjective vitality, self-determination and life engagement were used as potential indicators of the engaged pursuit of optimal well-being. Employees from a Midwestern University comprised three different Well-Being Way groups: new, experienced, and comparison. New Well-Being Way participants engaged in an 8-week process designed to enable participants to find and grow personal vitality. New Well-Being Way and Comparison group participants were measured at three time points over the course of the study. The main study analyses, a 2x3 group by time mixed model ANOVA, and follow-up analyses found significant results for several of the potential well-being indicators. Furthermore, the Well-Being Way process was found to have a significant and positive impact on Trait Subjective Vitality. The implications of these results and recommended future research directions are also presented.
