Unit 10

I rated my physical well-being at a 7, my spiritual well-being at a 9, and my psychological well-being at a 9 during our unit 3 assessment. I re-assessed myself during my unit 9 final. I rated my physical well-being at a 7, my spiritual well-being at an 8, and my psychological well-being at a 9. Yes, the score has changes, because my ideas of what this well-being meant has changed. My ideas about well-being have expanded and are not as general as it used to be. I have made some progress in every area I set goals for. I do have a bit to go before I will reach them, but that is because they are long-term goals. The following is my goals from our unit 3 blog.

I plan to stay about the same as I am in each area. However, I will start adding a healthier meal at-least once a week and skip desserts. I will also add an extra 10 minutes of cardiovascular exercise to each of my daily workout routine. In my spiritual and psychological areas, I plan to add at-least one extra time a week of doing either an extra 20 minutes of meditation or self-hypnosis. I believe this will help make a little bit more of a difference. However, the trick I noticed is keeping a balance. I have implemented my plans and have headed closer to my goals. However, since they are life-long goals I am still achieving them over and over, which gets me closer to the other goals I made in our unit 9 project, because they help set the stage for everything else.

I think the most difficult thing for me is doing some things more simply, like our meditations. I just seem to notice how some of the things we do simply can be made more effective by adding a couple of things or altering it slightly. However, I have noticed that I have gotten much better at doing things much more simple than before. I believe this class has helped me with helping others even more, because it is not about how much change we do. It is rather just the right amount of change, because it is the journey that is the destination and everything along the way teaches us something.
