Hi All,
Looking back to where I started, I would say there
are some improvements in all areas of my life. During last week’s project, I
assessed myself but now that I think about it, I would like to change certain
scores. My physical well-being I would
say is 7, psychological well-being is 7 and spiritual well-being is 7. From the assessment I’d given myself back in
Unit 3, there is some improvement, and I feel that as I continue my daily
contemplative practices, my exercise regimen and being a service to others…I
will see vast improvements in all areas.
One thing I’ve learned in this course is that we need put effort into
our lives in order to reap the benefits of integral health. And seeing that the
effort I’ve put in thus far has shown me a glimpse of what’s possible, this
just encourages me more so to put in as much effort as I can to attain better
outcomes.
I feel the goals I’ve set for each area are
attainable and as long as I put the necessary work into each area, I will see
consistent improvements. The
contemplative practices are very important to me because they help me to bring
balance in my psychological and spiritual well-being, which translates into
improvements in my physical wellness. I
also had a good discussion with my personal trainer in regards to my physical
goals and he came up with a new workout regimen for me which incorporates
cardio and weight training that will help me to increase my strength and energy
levels. I have volunteered at a nursing
home for a few years now and it has brought me such a sense of happiness and
purpose to my life. Due to my treatments, I have not been able to volunteer but
as I get stronger and healthier, this is something I am determined to continue.
This class has been an eye opening experience for me…I
realize what is possible now. If you
achieve a consistent balance between the body, mind and spirit…you attain a
happiness and well-being that you never thought possible. My meditative practices are important and are
part of my daily life. By incorporating
this one useful tool, my outlook on life has changed and has much improved my
ability to handle stress and life issues.
I look forward to my integral health journey…there is much work for all
of us to do but at the end we will find exactly what each of us are looking for…for
me it is inner peace. What about you?
What are you hoping to gain?
