In the unit 3 personal assessment I believe to have given myself a low score. Throughout the class the lessons have opened my eyes as to how much i have to work on. If i were to score myself now it would be farelly higher than before. This based on my knowledge for the exerciseto improve my spiritual and psychological, I have the told to explore what would work best for me and help others.
The goals I had placed for myself I still need to work on, I struggle day to day on my ups and downs on a roller coaster of emotions. I am still finding the strength to improve all aspects of myself, so I can be a positive and beneficial role model for my patients.
I could be doing a better job at implementing my goals i have placed for myself earlier in the course. I need to discipline myself to take the time out for these goals and practices.
This course has been enlightening to me on how much well being i need to improve. It has been difficult for me and my own self assessment, this realization has shown me things i have never faced. This in itself is difficult thing to take on over the years. My reward comes from the knowledge and encouragement this class has given my to search inside myself and ope my eyes to be a better person.

Unit 9 Project
Health & Wellness professionals must improve themselves psycological, by strengthening the mind and gain the ability to focus on a persons emotions and mental health. We as professionals should also seek into the spiritual aspect of our work, and incorporate these practices by strengthining our soul, which in turn can help promote a health mental state.To improve ourselves physically, working our bodies into shape can relate to a healthy mind and release endorphins and stress, which can connect to spiritual and psychological. "A healthy body is a healthy mind".
i for myself have many goals I now see I have to reach in order to achieve a well rounded understanding for the bigger picture. Physically I wnat to achieve more activity throughout my week, to improve my stamina and energy. Spiritually I have a goal to reach inside myself deeper and strengthin my soul and how i see myself. Pyscologically, I intent to seek information for letting go of my own baggage I have carried through the years, and strengthin my feelings of myself and others around me.
I have assesed myself in all areas having more informstion now then I did before. I have found that in all areas psychologically, Spiritually, and physically. I have fallen short in these levels of oneself. I am not the pysical fit person i once was, and torugh thses exercises and readings in class, I have founf that I need alot of work spiritually and psychologically.
My ultimate goal for my spiritual is to learn to love myself more, despite what I have been through, and not allow it to bring others and me down. My psycholgical goal is to seek some sort of cousel, to remove my inner thoughts and feelings and be more menatlly stronger for myself and my kids. Physically, I would like to be more active with my kids and increase my energy.
I will start to implement the meatl practices I have learned to improve my spiritual, and meditaion and perhaps blogging down my thoughts for my psychological. This will help me realese my inner emotions rather than bottling then inside.Exercise such as yoga will be beneficial for me and my physical wellness.
My strategy for maintaining these practice would be to blogg my efforts and achievements over the next six months. I will make a list of goals i set for myself and the pro and cons of getting to the next level.

Beneficial Practices
Through the several practices we have experienced in this class I feel the loving kindness and the subtle mind exercises I enjoyed the most. Loving kindness I enjoyed about the thoughts of a specific someone and focusing on the positive energy that person brings to you. This showed me that when i am having a negative moment to use this exercise to help channel my energy and I can think of someone that brings a smile to my face.The subtle mind exercise helped improve my breathing and my ability to focus on incorporating my breathing when channeling my thoughts and feelings. These exercises have given me a vice to help me and my issues with my anxiety also to control my negative energy.

To move on..
This blog is great way for me to unravel my thoughts. Lately I've had difficulty in my everyday positivity, it's been stressful. I found the recent readings recently interesting with the 3 steps integral health. Especially the one about getting rid of the things that cause you suffering. I have something that i see as a suffering constant up and down never stable. I' m tired of trying to believe in things will get better, it always goes back to the same thing, wether the blame is wherever. I'm losing the fight for it all, and just care about the 2 things closest to me.when is enough enough and we face the truth.

The subtle Mind
The subtle mind exercise I found to be more focused on the stability of the mind. Ignoring all subjects around you and concentrating on breathing. Loving kindness exercise had you focus on one individual and feeding off the feeling the thought of that person brings you. I enjoyed the breathing exercise it brought more relaxation, but I found difficulty in pulling the mind in, regaining focus on the exercise and not other surroundings.
Spiritual wellness is a form I have yet to engage in. At the moment my physical wellness is not up to par, as my intestinal illness has taken it's toll on my body. Also my mental wellness needs stability, in the struggles I've gone through these couple weeks and most of my life for that matter. My mind is tired and my body is weary. Finding that connection between the two is hard to embrace my spiritual wellness. Spiritual to me being asking god everyday for the strength to get through this once again.

Unit 4
The loving kindness experience I found to be interesting. I found a little trouble to focus on the mind set of a specific someone and to combine all the feelings in one. Also to gather them in a setting and take all of it in emotionally. I did though feel relaxed to try and focus on one person that makes me happy. i would recommend it to others to try and focus on a similar focus of mind state. This could help others release feeling towards someone or just channel negative energy.
A mental workout is to exercise the mind into releasing thoughts and organizing the mind of feelings and thoughts. This is to help improve ones health of the mind and body. This can help realise stress, be sharper at everyday actions. Taking the time daily to exercise the mind of our daily routines and feelings to help release tensions.

The Mind Body Connection
1. On a scale of 1-10 i would rate my physical well being as a 5, only because i know i could be in better shape. Also my daily routine has a major effect on my hpysical baing. I work about 10hrs. a day and am awake non stop daily for about 17 hours a day. So rest and stress decreases my physical well being.
My spiritual well being i feel could be stronger i believe in a higher power and there are reasons for all things. I would like to improve my spiritual well being, and be able to share spirituality with my children.
Psycholical Well being I know for sure I need major work on. I struggle with alot of ups and downs mentallty and the ahrdest part is not knwing how to get past it for help. Depression and subsatnce abuse runs in my family so I struggle to try not to fall into that rut, although i know I need help on dealing with my issues and not bottle them up like i do.
2. My goal for physical is to exercise a little more and make ample time for proper rest.
Spiritual i want to get more involved with the church and be a better practicing catholic and lead a positive example for my boys.
Psychological i want so bad for myself and want to seek counsel to empty my mind of these struggles. To help feel better for myself and others around me.
3. Activities I can include can be to take walks and stretch out to improve my physical. Write down and share my feelings to improve my mental struggles. Spiritual exercise by involving myself in the church and practicing living the right way.
4. The crime of the century I found to be helpful with the breathing exercises and low monotone speed of exercise help take in the mood. My frustration came with my anxious and trying to concentrate on the focus of the exercise.
