Self-Reflective Holistic Health for University Students during Covid-19: Using a Novel Tool

During the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, students were engaged in self-reflection to overcome the anxiety and related disorders. Universities entail the responsibility of a focused engagement approach for their students, this was reinforced using survey-based self-reflection. A survey of fifteen questions covering three domains of holistic health namely - attitude, self-reflection and conscience was undertaken, every question has an ordinal response of Likert scale - one to five. Maximum score is seventy-five and minimum is fifteen. There are five qualitative ordinal levels which can be derived from this score. Perception of illness in the recent past (six months) gave positive finding in 1/3 of the participants, despite good attitude among most of the participants, 85% of the participants showed good holistic health. Participants were largely neutral for donation and charity. Students shall have self-conscience for constant engagement and involvement to face the new-normal with a better outlook for holistic health. We used survey questionnaire as a holistic health tool for this purpose.
