On a scale of 1 to 10 I would now rate myself in the following categories: physical well-being -9, spiritual well-being- 5, psychological well-being- 7. I am beginning to grow in areas that I was slacking in. I am in good shape; I work out five days a week. I eat right most of the time; do cardio, and strength training often. My goal is to be in the best shape of my life by the time we get married next year. I have slacked on my spiritual well-being. I am a very spiritual person however I have lost touch with that side due to simply not making it a priority anymore. I feel the spirituality and psychological parts are so interconnected and affect each other greatly. My goal is to connect with my church and my spiritual side again. I would also like to get my fiancé involved in this too because it will make our relationship stronger. I can move toward this goal by simply saying my prayers every night and making more of an attempt to go to church, where I feel at home and at peace.
I feel that this course has allowed me to grow personally and professionally.feel that this class has greatly altered my life in a positive way. Meditation was very difficult to begin but so worth it in the end. After learning how to meditate during this course, I feel much more calm. This class has been my own natural antianxiety medication! I have learned alot which I will pass onto others in my future. I feel that everyone can greatly benefit from meditation and yoga practice because I myself, have seen the benefits to be reaped from it. Good luck to everyone in your future endeavors!
It sounds like you are on the right tract. I enjoyed reading your comments and I would like to get involved with a church also. I think it does help to have a spouce involved, it does make you closer. I have also enjoyed the meditation exercises and I plan on doing more of this. Good luck to you.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are on the right bath on your journey, and good luck with it and keep on going with it. Be strong, and be the person that you want to be. I to have allowed this class to be my anxiety medication, but I have been going through a lot and I probably did not allow the full potential of this class to affect me the way it should have, but I will go back and read the book and let it affect me more in the future. Great post and good luck.

Hello like you I scored myself very low back in unit 3 because I was in a total other feeling, but after this class and after every week exercise I learn how to make myself be proactive and used the tools I was obtaining every week. I am a better person now because I am able to control my personal, psychological and physical issues better. Thank you and God bless you.

Hello Ashley, I hear ya on the not getting all the aspects at the level we would personally like. I thought i would throw this thought your way about the spiritual side being a bit on the low end, you said. I remember the time that it would take to get to church, prepare, clothing, tools needed, the time set aside on specific times and so i thought i would throw this out there. "He" made all things of nature and so-- how about just getting into the woods more often or sit by a river or body of water. Look up at the stars or stop to watch a bug crawl by. Aren't these as well connecting a bit on the spiritual side? This way you can work on getting more time in on the spiritual side instead of just getting that one dy a week or so in. Just a thought... You take care. Sincerely, diana
