Unit 3 Blogging Assignment

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

          A- I rate my physical wellbeing at an 8 out of 10. Fitness is extremely important to me; I lift weights and run on a regular basis.
 
          B- I would put spiritual wellbeing at 5. I don't put as much into it as I should.
 
          C- I would also put psychological wellbeing at a 5, simply because my stress levels are out the roof on a regular basis, and I don't take the time to nurture my own wellbeing in the ways I should.
 

          Develop a goal for yourself in each area (physical, spiritual, psychological).
 
          Physical- Since I already exercise on a regular basis, I'll set strength goals: 200 lb squat, and 150 lb bench press.
 
 Spiritual- To pray on a regular basis and attend church more.
 
 Psychological- To begin meditation and learn to manage my stress levels better.

What activities or exercise can you implement in your life to assist in moving toward each goal?

Physically, I can up my game at the gym and work harder with my training partners to reach my goals.

Spiritually and psychologically, it is harder. The goals alone are activities, and I simply need to set aside the time to do them.


Complete the relaxation exercise The Crime of the Century. To hear this exercise, click here. Describe your experience. (What it beneficial? Frustrating? etc.)
 
This was more frustrating to me than anything. I don't relax "on demand"; and I'm feeling a little stressed about completing this assignment before the deadline. It was really just a chore rather than a good experience.

  1. Great post Allie! I am going to have to agree with you on your response to the relaxation exercise. I too find it hard to relax on demand like that. Wish we could incorporate something like that into the seminars.
