Optimal well-being is achieved by having all aspects of your life in good health. This does not include just caring for your physical well-being, but also your psychological and spiritual well-being as well.
If I were to rate myself on a scale of 1-10 for the different aspects of my wellbeing, I would rate it as follows:
Physical- 7 For my physical well-being I would rate myself at a seven, because overall I am of decent health. Although I am a bit weaker than I would like.
A goal I would like to accomplish dealing with my physical well-being would be to learn a new physical hobby, like dancing. I could work on this goal by attending dance classes in my area.
Psychological- 6 For my psychological well-being I would rate myself at a six, because I tend to feel overwhelmed and depressed at times. But for the most part my psychological well-being is pretty good.
A goal I would like to accomplish dealing with my psychological well-being would be to have a better sense of self worth. I could work to accomplish this by becoming more active in my community, doing all I can to help this world to be a better place.
Spiritual- 9 For my spiritual well-being I would rate myself at a nine. This is one aspect of my life I am very confident about. I am very much in touch with my spiritual self.
A goal I would like to accomplish dealing with my spiritual well-being would be to expand my knowledge further. I could accomplish this by meditating more often, and asking for spiritua guidance.
I found the relaxation exercise for this weeks unit to be very similar to other exercises that I often do. I also recognized that it was a chakra cleansing exercise. I really enjoy taking part in these types of exercises, I believe they help you to become more spiritually aware.
I was wondering where you were thinking of asking for spiritual guidance at. Most people seek the church but i have found in my experience church can sometimes be more religion and less spiritual this is something i have struggled with for a while so i was curios where you were planning on seeking spiritual guidence
ReplyDeleteA good place to start for spiritual wellness is practicing your beliefs, doing relaxation exercies, and getting to know yourself on inside. It sounds like you have a great physical appearance and you're okay with your psychological wellness. The relaxation techniques will help with the depression. Believe me, last year was really tough year for me and when I started the relaxation/deep breathing exercises in my stress management, I began to gain control. I have also gotten back to my religion. Loving God, Jesus Christ, and Family has helped me to overcome.
ReplyDeleteJonathon, I was planning on seeking spiritual guidance through techniques of meditation and doing research to learn about how I can become more enlightened. Thank you for asking. :)
