WellnessBased on your reflections, and on a scale of 1 to 10 (ten being optimal wellbeing), where do you rate your A-physical wellbeing, B-spiritual well-being, C-psychological well-being? Why? Develop a goal for yourself in each area (physical, spiritual, psychological). What activities or exercise can you implement in your life to assist in moving toward each goal? Complete the relaxation exercise The Crime of the Century. To hear this exercise, click here. Describe your experience. (What it beneficial? Frustrating? etc.) Participate in the Blogs of at least two other students. Provide them with feedback on their goal strategies.
I would rate my physical well-being probably about a 5, my spiritual about a 6 and my psychological well-being about a 6.5. I have a bad habit of letting things fester and I need to find a way a way of letting the negative out and being more positive. As far as physically I have to eat better and exercise and then I will be better.
A goal for my physical well-being will be to walk more and bring my lunch to work.
A goal for my spiritual well-being will be to learn to meditate and set time asdie each morning or evening to do do just that.
A goal for psychological well-being will be to take smaller things in stride and count to 5 and not to 10 just yet. Baby steps.
I will implement yoga, meditation, walking and healthier eating habits but will have to do this with in moderation and in baby steps.

Hello Tanya,
I think we all have a habit of allowing things to fester inside of us. Some people are just better with speaking how things make them feel, while others allow those feelings to remain bottled up festering inside until they are a ticking time bomb ready to explode. I really find it very helpful to write out things that are bothering me and writing ways in which I can resolve them. I like to place them on a scale, sort of like a scale of 1-10, and reflect on their importance, why I am allowing the situation or problem bother me so much, and whether or not the problem or situation even warrants my time. Sometimes if we can really reflect on the issue at hand, we may find that allowing it to fester inside of us not only emotionally drains us, but takes away from the time we could be spending on ourselves. I love Yoga and I think you implementing it into your routine will be very beneficial. You have set some really great goals! Moderation and baby steps is fine--we cannot always just dive in head first or full speed ahead. You must find your own balance. I am sure you will find what works best for you!
Tanya, your goals are pretty similar to mine as well. I do have a hard time with letting things go. There are times I will ask one of my friends about a situation if it was okay that it bothered me and most of the time they say, "Elise, just let it go, its small and you have nothing to worry about." They are right most of the time. If I let everything get to me then their would probably be a lot more arguments with me and my spouse. Men love the women that are laid back and that is something I am working on. I do need to bring my lunch to work with me like as you said. It would probably help me save money as well.
