Blog Unit 10
By Jill Gazelle
When
comparing the two personal assessments I was amazed to discover that my
spirituality has dropped quite significantly from an 8 to a 5. I don’t understand
this rating because I feel more spiritual now than I felt when I started. Maybe I felt if I didn’t feed my spirituality
I was not worthy of an 8 rating. I feel guilty
that I don’t have more time to dedicate to spirituality. Perhaps, getting up an hour early, just to
meditate would help me become more spiritual.
My physical health is rating the same. But, I
have taken steps to improve this problem.
I have meant with a Diabetic counselor and started taking class for
diabetes. I am trying new medication,
and things are hopeful. Physiologically,
I gave myself a 7, the original score was 5.
I believe this is the result of the meditation and relaxation
exercises. Somehow they have drilled
into my subconscious and found a home. I look forward to them. I have loving-kindness for all beings and
conduct myself in a loving manner. I
think before I speak.
My goals in unit 3 is to improve myself physically
and to meet with a diabetic professional to get educated on insulin amounts.
My Goal for Spiritual is to spend time meditating and use relaxation
techniques. My psychological well-being will improve if I start working out on
my elliptical. I am committed myself to thirty minutes three times per
day to start. I am proud to report I have meant several of these
goals. I have gone to a diabetic
Professional for my health, I learned proper injection amounts. I have also meant the goal I had for
spirituality and psychological well-being.
I meditate every day before I go to sleep. Working out has not been an options because
of my diabetic nerve pain, but I am hoping to get control of my diabetes with
the help of my Doctors and support groups.
My goals in unit 9, is for my physical health which meant to start
Yoga, and increase my cardio workouts. My Psychological goal is to be
aware of my current state of thinking. To show loving kindness to all and
practice the meditation exercises. My goal for spirituality is to set aside
more time to develop my personal spirituality.
I have had success with these goals also. Although I did not start Yoga or Cardio, I
have been meditating and setting time aside for spirituality. Every Sunday I watch Joel Olsten and feel
like I am connecting more with God.
I have implemented
most of the activates for my well-being.
I have searched out Doctors for my physical health. I have set aside time for spiritual development. And I have been meditation once per night to
feed my physiological development..
To
summarize this experience would be to say I have been enlightened with a new
more positive way to be happy. I enjoy practicing
loving kindness, and the subtle mind. I
feel calmer and feel like I am more in control of my emotions, thoughts and
action. I feel I am no longer
self-absorbed with myself, and would much more enjoy helping others. The rewards are boundless. This did not come easy to me because my mind
constantly switches channel and sometimes it’s hard for me to focus. This experience will improve every
relationship I will have in the future.
