The most widely used HEPs model. ▫Planning begins by identifying specific health problems in a targeted group. ▫Next, lifestyle & environmental elements that contribute to the targeted health problem are identified. ▫Then background factors that predispose, enable, & reinforce the lifestyle & environmental factors are analyzed. ▫Finally, health education programs are designed, initiated, & evaluated. |

Research shows (2005) that when we adversity, whether psychological or physical, there are at least 4 possible outcomes: |
1. A continued downside 2. Survival with diminished capacity or impairment, 3. A gradual or rapid return to the pre-adversity level of functioning, 4. The emergence of a quality that makes the person somehow better of than beforehand, referred to as thriving. |

|
|
Allostatic load |
According to neuroscientists Bruce McEwen, who introduced the concept, "Under the conditions of stress, one would expect a physically weakened system, but psychological changes can occur - often in the context of psychological thriving. In psychological terms, this transfers into greater restorative processes than destructive processes at work." |
