My well being

For my physical wellbeing I rate myself about a 6, I have quit smoking and I work out about 5 days a week. However, I am overweight and do not always make the best choices on what I eat. For my spiritual wellbeing I give myself an 8 I am very aware of myself and what kind of person I want to be in the world. I have very strong beliefs and stand by them despite what others think. My psychological wellbeing is about an 8 as well although it is something that I am constantly working on I do not always look at things logically. I had a less than ideal childhood and have a hard time letting go of old feelings and sometimes have a hard time accepting that things are truly better now.

Goals for my physical wellbeing would include working out and eating better, now that I have quit smoking I need to work on cutting out sweets as well. For my spiritual wellbeing I have started doing yoga as a way of relaxing and really having some peaceful time to myself. My psychological wellbeing is something I work on by talking about what I am thinking and feeling. I could also keep a journal when I am really upset as a way of getting those feelings out and then reviewing them later to have more rational thinking about the situation. Sometimes actually seeing what I am feeling makes me realize how silly I am being.

To help me with all my goals I just do it, I do not let myself talk myself out of doing things. I also ask my husband to keep me motivated and encourage me in doing a little more every day. For my physical wellbeing I leave a pair of my old jeans out so I can see what my goal is to keep me motivated.

I liked the music exercise, I felt calm and relaxed. I did not like imagining the red light, I associate red as a hostile color so it kind of made me imagine hostility at first but I really enjoyed the rest of it.

Sorry this is late

I apologize for this being late I had some difficulties. This is the first time I have had a blog and found it a little confusing at first :) I did really like the relaxation exercise, I have two young children so I had to wait for both of them to be sleeping to fully listen to it and I found it very soothing. A clam voice and quiet music is rare in my house so it was really nice. I am really looking forward to this class and hopefully using what I learn in my own life.
