Unit 10

            After reviewing my unit 3 personal assessment I see that I still need to keep working on incorporating those goals and activities into my daily life. When I last did the assessment I rated myself an 8 in Physical, a 7 or 8 in Spiritual, and a 5 or 6 in psychological. Today I would say that my physical score has dropped to about a 6 because I have been sick and overwhelmed with homework and I have just gotten out of my routines (the exercises I had implemented in Unit 3). This will be an easy fix for me now though, because I graduate this week and I am close to being recovered from my illness. So, I will be back on track next week. In the other two areas I would rate myself about the same. My spiritual life is still strong and I am still sticking to the activities I set in Unit 3. My psychological well being has probably increased to about a 7 because of the tools we have learned in this class. I just need to be more consistent in doing the activities that I cam up with in Unit 3.  

This course has improved my personal health and wellness because I now have some tools that I can use to clear my mind and distress. Before this course I was not aware of my consciousness or the power I have within to deal with stress. I love the concept of relaxing and focusing on your breath and when random thoughts come into your mind you recognize them but do not grasp onto them. I think so much energy is lost and stress caused by us grabbing onto every thought that comes into our heads. I will continue to use this form of meditation to help me clear my mind so I can focus on that which is the most important. I will also be sharing some of these exercises with my friends, family, and clients.
