Health and Wellness Training Program 2

 I. Introduction
Are the hopes and dreams of the seafarers for the future overtaken or frighten

by poor health? How’s the physical and family health of the seafarers? Is diabetes and

related chronic disease such as high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, heart

disease, hepatitis, STD and excess weight ruining their life, family and work place? Are

their medications going up while the quality of life goes down? Are they ready to begin

the journey of restoring their health and fully enjoying life?

BW Seafarers’ Health and Wellness Training Program is designed to provide

health and wellness education to all seafarers’ and family of BW shipping as well.

As part of the goals of the BW Shipping to help and assist their seafarers

achieve a wholistic life, the BS Seafarer’s Health and Wellness Seminar will provide the

use of lifestyle interventions in the treatment and management of disease. Such

interventions include: diet, exercise, stress management, smoking cessation, marital

enhancement and a variety of other non-drug modalities. Part of this training program is

preparing the seafarers during extreme conditions (extremely cold and hot temperature,

humid and adverse environmental conditions such as strong typhoon).

The intervention includes powerful and encouraging health education techniques

that will influence behavioral change among the participants.

A growing number of scientific evidence has demonstrated that health and

wellness education is an essential component in the treatment of chronic disease that

can be as effective as medication, but without the risks and unwanted side-effects.

Join thousands who heave learned the path to healthy lifestyle.
