The Whole Person Philosophy

Our products are intentionally focused on the whole person – the complex mixture of

physical, mental, social, emotional, and spiritual components that make us human.

We’ve included all these components in our logo.

About Whole Person

Health and Wellness Promotion for the whole person:

Whole Person Associates was founded in 1980 with the primary goal of publishing resources to help practitioners effectively teach stress management and wellness promotion. Each product was required to do the following: promote self-discovery, provide interactive activities, include reproducible worksheets, and approach health and wellness from a “whole person perspective” - mind, body & spirit. Through the years the publication program has expanded to include mental health and self-help, but the primary goal and product criteria has remained.

Why Whole-Person Resources Matter

Whole-person wellness recognizes the many facets that make us human. This philosophy guides the development of every book, activity, and worksheet we publish. Our resources provide:

• Interactive exercises that promote self-discovery
• Reproducible worksheets for easy use in group and individual sessions
• Practical strategies for stress management and emotional regulation
• Activities that foster resilience, mindfulness, and healthy communication
• Supportive tools that strengthen relationships, self-esteem, and life skills

Whether the goal is stress reduction, trauma recovery, mindful living, self-care, addiction support, or workplace wellness, our materials offer a clear path to greater balance and well-being.
