Dear
Professor and Classmates:
Review your unit 3 personal
assessment of your psychological, physical, and spiritual well-being. Reflect
on these areas. How did you score yourself on a scale from 1 to 10 in unit 3?
How do you score yourself now? Has the score changed? Why or why not?

Yes, my scores have changed because of my integral grow, as
well as the methods and concepts that I have learned throughout this course.
Review the goals and
activities you set for yourself in each area. Have you made progress toward the
goals? Explain.
Unit 3 –
Goals:
Physical
– My goal
for physical wellness is to get back on an exercise plan which consists of
physical activity 5 -7 days a week. Also to be more consistent with my
nutritional development of more whole foods and less processed foods. I need to
get back to a calorie deficit so that I can lose some unwanted weight.
Spiritual
– My goal
spiritually is getting back to attending mass ever Sunday and eventually
attending the Catholic daily mass as often as my work schedule will allow.
Psychological
– My goal
with psychological wellness will be to begin working on developing the program
of preparation and visualization.
Unit 10 –
Update:
Physical – Yes, this plan of a
workout and nutrition programs has been set in motion. I have not lost many
pounds but I can tell things are happening. I have begun to firm up and my
strength as somewhat returned. I have currently been consistent for the last 5
weeks. Feeling Great!
Spiritual – I have begun attending
weekly mass but have not currently attended any daily mass. This is still on my
list and before the New Year begins I plan on having a routine in motion.
Psychological – I have begun developing my
plan of attack for continuing my growth and development of integral health and
human flourishing. I will be taking the week between classes to finish the
details and get it written down.
Have you implemented the
activities you chose for your well-being in each of the three areas? Explain.
Unit 10 –
Updates:
Physical – I have implemented the
treadmill and elliptical machine but would like to increase the time daily to
45 minutes. Currently I am at 10 to 15 minutes as a warm up for my weight
training.
Spiritual – I pray but not on the
consistent pattern. My goal is to pray when I wake up, before I go to bed, and
eventually find some time mid-day to take a few moments to pray.
Psychological – Currently I am relying on
the Subtle-Mind Practice and Meeting Aesclepius Practice methods. Yoga is
something I would like to practice every day but do not have this set in motion
yet.
Summarize your personal
experience throughout this course. Have you developed improved well-being? What
has been rewarding? What has been difficult? How will this experience improve
your ability to assist others?
This has been the most enjoyable
class I have taken. I am a more relaxed and confident and have a better overall
feeling toward my life. The reward has been a better appreciation of life and a
better understanding of improving how we live our lives. Sometimes it was
difficult to open up and find the answers but because of the growth, knowledge,
and rewards, these difficulties have been forgotten. This class will allow me
to teach others because it has taught me. Living life in appreciation of all it
has to offer presents a positive attitude to the world, making it much easier to
convince clients, friends, and family of the concepts and methods, as well as
their ability to work. “Practice What You Preach”, words to live by.
