unit 10 blog

My physical well-being is at a 7, my spiritual well-being is at a 5, and my psychological well-being is a 5 for unit 3.  Now I would score myself a 10 in physical well-being, a 7 in my spiritual well-being and a 9 in my psychological well-being.  The scores have all gone up because of my ability to relax and focus.  I have been able to get outside more which always helps with each aspect of my health.  I need to find a way to carry this feeling through winter when it’s dreary and too cold to get outside.  I have been able to meet most of my goals.  I have been hiking at least once a week and run at least twice to which I have added a 16 mile bike ride on the days I don’t run.  I have been out in nature a lot lately which has helped me feel better spiritually.  Psychologically I have accomplished my goals and have gotten A’s in my three classes this term and have two left until I graduate.  I will take the momentum from this success and take it to the last two classes.


I feel that I have really grown as a person and better understand what I need to do to feel better in my life.  Integral health is a new concept to me and I feel that I have a better idea of what it takes to achieve that.  I have offered some of the techniques I have learned to my family and friends as well as the books that we have used.  I did have some difficulties with some of the exercises but I believe with time that I will be able to do them as I continue to improve the meditation techniques.  I am much more at peace and calmer when I am at work so the night seems to go smoother for me and I don’t sweat the small stuff as much.  This class has helped me to find a healthier center to my life and I have been able to give that back to the patients at work.
