Unit 10

After looking back at unit 3 and seeing my scores for Psychological, Physical and spiritual me, it was amazing.

In unit 3 I scored my Physical self as a 5 out of 10 because of being 15 lbs over wt. Well I would have to say that score is pretty much the same. I have not been able to attacke that portion of my health. I pretty much just made up an excuse every time I was going to walk or use the stairs at work. That part of my self needs to change and realize that if I don't do more to improve my health I could be setting my body up for disease. Unfortunately this mental fight is part of my Psychological score.



In unit 3 my psychological score was not very high either. I scored myself at 6 out of 10 and I would have to say it is even lower know. I would score myself at 5 out of 10 know, only because I always want to make an excuse not to do something. I am working on this and hope to change for the better. I have even started making myself park farther away from the store so I have to walk..lol..Me fighting myelf and trying to win.



The spiritual aspect was scored 7 out of 10, this score is going to stay the same. I am getting better at going to church. My husband has even decided we should attend every sunday. I also remember the one thing my grandmother taught me. She said, "you don't have to be in church to talk to God." Well I am talking to him more and more, especially when I feel overwhelmed and angry. This really helps and I feel relief after talking.



After looking at all my goals and attempts to integral health I can say I still have a long way to go. I planned on meditation to help with my psychological health and so far that goal is still working. I still take time out for myself and work hard at making time for meditation. As for the physical goals, I am still working on the weight loss. I don't think that one is going to be so easy since my hours at work are so crazy. I am looking at the choices in food I make and trying to eat more healthy. Instead of fries I pick salad, instead of soda I pick tea, so I am trying. The spiritual goal is right on track and I am looking forward to staying the course.



With all that said, I have learned alot about my over all health habits and mental habits in this class. I tend to procrastenate when it comes to my own health habits but I am quick to suggest healthy habits to other people. I learned alot about myself from this class and hope to take another course similar to this one in the future.
