After reviewing my Unit 3 assessment, I have made some great improvements and progress over the past ten weeks. In the beginning, I scored myself in the areas of physical, psychological and spiritual; Physical-7, Psychological 5, and Spiritual-6. Now that I have engaged in meditation and physical practices, my scores have improved a great deal. My Physical is now an 8, Psychological 8 and Spiritual is 7. Recently, I have been exercising more effective challenges and is cutting back on my sugars and carbs. I have started to listen to the subtle mind practice and loving-kindness exercises. Alternating has been great for me, I'm not burned out, and this is very surprising to me! :-)
There are several goals I am aiming for! One of those goals includes finding a new church home which will allow me to mentor to the young adults and unfortunate citizens in my area. I believe that giving back to my community will allow me to expand my gift of love to those who are searching loving-kindness, opportunities to share, assistance and love!
I have implemented these changes into my lifestyle and have received some personal rewards towards my personal improvement. I see a change in me attitude and my purpose towards life and work. My desire is to strive towards happiness, while providing a service to those who seek a kind word of encouragement, as well as embrace the opinions of those who are totally the opposite. This has been hard, but it's getting easier as the days and weeks go by! :-)
Overall, this class provided me with a new outlook on life, health and wellness! I no longer view my health as average. Although it will never be totally perfect, I have learn to except things as they come, and find the positive in the negative as it relates to uncontrollable circumstances. This class actually allowed me to seek the part of me that was missing...a life which included a sense of freedom from negative thoughts and discouragements. I believe that what I have learn will be more than just beneficial to myself, but also to those whom desire to be encouraged and helped as they approach their lifetime journey called, "life!"
Thanks to everyone! I wish you much sucess that's filed with love and happiess.

As you say, accepting things as they come is so important. I find I still struggle with this some. I have been working under a great deal of stress in the last weeks of class and have almost taken on the idea of feeling like the guy named Job in the bible. I feel sometimes like I'm being punished for something I've done wrong and have been working hard on not feeling so personally responsible for things our of my control.
ReplyDeleteI must say that I would have to agree with you on how this class has improved my life drastically too. I am thankful for all of you in this class and your comments Keesha. You have been a wonderful asset to the class and it has been a pleasure. Good luck in the rest of your classes
