As I stated in the Unit 9 blog, in unit 3 I rated myself a 3 for physical, 3 for psychological, and a 5 for spiritual wellness. I would state by the end of this course I could indeed rate myself a 5 for physical- eating better, less caffeine intake, and walking more, 5 for psychological- not letting people get on my nerves, meditating more, and being more patient, and a 7 for my spiritual wellness- I have started proactively searching out my spiritual needs and addressing them one at a time. This course has really helped me realize the importance of every aspect in my life and to also realize to not take anything for granted.
The goals and activities I set for myself was meditating more, practicing my Reiki, and start partaking of yoga again. I have accomplished the meditation and the Reiki but am still trying to find the time to schedule time for exercise. School, work, and family commitments keep me so busy that there are days I just long for the pillow and don't even want to consider exercise of any kind. Yoga and exercise is still on my list and I am determined to accomplish reaching my mental, physical, and spiritual awakening and blossoming. Wish me luck....
My personal experience throughout this course was obvious to me. It showed me that I was burning my candle at both ends and I was ready to burn out. Actually today I realized that there is no need in getting mad at my daycare for opening late, which makes me late to work because then I get stuck in rush hour traffic. I will take my time telling my children goodbye for the day, giving them kisses, and hoping they have a good day at school. All that the anger did was make my insides feel bad and then it projected to the outer surface. I have started to enjoy my life even though it is still busy and hectic. I will take one day at a time and put as many blessings into it as possible.
Not losing my temper has been the most difficult part of this course. I am a hot head and trying to slow down and think before blowing up was pretty hard. It is getting a little easier each day though.
I believe this will be beneficial for others because my level headedness and true caring and love for people will show and it will touch the individuals that need it and allow them to have a starting point from where they can also begin their life transformation of change for the better.
You have progressed so well in each of the areas! That is amazing to hear from a fellow classmate because it might be the extra motivation I or another classmate needs. When I get stuck in rush hour I hope to find one of my favorite songs on the radio or put in one of my favorite cds so I can quit thinking negatively and think positively. It’s just an idea that may also work for you. I wish you the best of luck with further progression in each area. It has been nice following you on the discussion board and these blog posts.
ReplyDeleteYou have made a very important step by recognizing where you have fallen short in your integral health progress. Practicing Reiki and yoga are two excellent activities. These will certainly help with your psychospiritual health. When this area flourishes, everything follows. I am glad that this class was beneficial to you. It has also helped me tremendously. Keep calm and enjoy your break, I hope to meet you in another class.
