While reviewing my personal assessment in Unit 3 of myself in psychological, physical and spiritual well-being I have found a big difference to now. Then I ranked myself as a 6 in physical and I am going to leave it as a 6. I haven't really done a whole lot to change myself but it takes baby steps in order to get where I want to go. All this weight didn't come on overnight so it will take time to get it off. I have not yet gone to the gym that I pay for but right now I cannot because I do not have a babysitter so I can go. In spiritual I ranked myself a 2 and now I feel it more as a 6 only because I have learned that to be spiritual does not mean you have to believe in someone/something but to believe in yourself. I really enjoyed the relaxation and even the meditation to get in control of myself. I have reached my goal in this because I have opened myself up to believe in my self and in doing so believe in others. And finally psychological I ranked myself then as 6 and now I would keep it as a six even though my goal was to be a 10, after learning what I did in this class I don't know that I will ever be a 10 because there will always be something I have to work on.
I have implemented the some of the activities I chose for my well-being, the one I wish I would work more on is going to the gym to make me feel better about myself and then all of the others will fall into place.
My personal experience throughout this course would be that I have grown so much in the last 9 weeks. I say that because when I first found out that I was signed up for this class I was disappointed and worried because I was not a very spiritual person that I would not do very well. During the past 9 weeks I have learned that you do not have to worship to be spiritual and I have opened up my heart and let the spiritual aspects in. My experience will most defiantly help others because I can show others that you do not have to worship to be spiritual and relaxation and meditation will help.
Thanks for reading and good luck to you in the future.
I have often worried about not introducing religion into my children's lives, but after this class I know that having them be spiritual and knowing how to treat others is(in my opinion) more important than a religion. The important thing is that each of realize that this life is greater than we are and that we all play a role and that what we do has an affect on everything. I am so glad that you got something positive out of this class!

Hi Jacque,
ReplyDeleteYou had some great improvements since unit 3. I think many of us are in your shoes where we did not get to improve or physical side. I myself have not made as much times as I would like for gym time. I told myself 3 times a week so that I would not become overwhelmed. Daycare is a big issue in gyms and even when they are provided they are full of germs and expensive but you will overcome any hurdles. As long as our mind is right we will figure things out. Spirituality is not the same as worship and people always get that confused. I had already been reading a few books about this but this class has made thing so much more clear. Whether we choose religion or spirituality for many they work interconnected and we all benefit from it. Best of wishes to you and all of your goals.
