Unit 3 Exercise

1.         Based on your reflections, and on a scale of 1 to 10 (ten being optimal wellbeing),   where do you rate your A-physical wellbeing, B-spiritual well-being, C-psychological well-being? Why?

I rate myself 10 on all three areas.

2.         Develop a goal for yourself in each area (physical, spiritual, psychological).

Instead of writing my goals, I would write about what I currently do.  For physical well-being, I practice proper nutrition on a daily basis.  I seldom eat out because I am careful about the kinds of food I ingest.  In addition, I engage in a regular exercise regimen of cardiovascular training, strength training and flexibility training.

For my spiritual well-being, I dedicate about an hour every morning to study and meditate on the Word of God.  During this time, I also take the time to pray. 

For my psychological well-being, I keep a journal to write down my thoughts. I am also quite expressive thus I am not good in hiding my emotions.  I also have a wonderful husband that I constantly communicate with and share thoughts with all the time. We just don’t talk about the weather :-) but the deep things in life. 

3.         What activities or exercise can you implement in your life to assist in moving toward each goal? I believe I have reached a level where I am not striving. I am content, conscious of who I am and know where I want to be and become.

4.         Complete the relaxation exercise The Crime of the Century. To hear this exercise, click here. Describe your experience. (What it beneficial? Frustrating? etc.)

I actually fell asleep. As far as I can remember, the beginning part, which was the breathing part, was very relaxing. Then I heard him say about the 7 colors. After that I don’t remember. I woke up when the audio was done.  Was it beneficial? Of course it was. I was very relaxed and enjoyed the short nap.
