End of class goals

Well it looks like this class is finally over and I must say that I have learned a lot. At first I was very skeptical of this course and the outcome but I learned to enjoy it as we went along. That’s not to say that I loved the course but all in all I made improvements where I needed to.

In Unit 3 I scored my physical wellbeing as a 9 and I would say I am still a 9. I still train 6 days a week and the one area of improvement was to set up more of a schedule for running which I haven’t done as of yet. I have ideas just not ones I have acted on. My spiritual wellbeing back in Unit 3 was a 1 and that is an area where I do feel I have improved slightly. Although I haven’t gone to church yet like I had said I would, I have consulted with my girlfriend about religion as it is something she believes strongly in. Her insight has helped me immensely so now I understand its purpose more and can say my score now would be a 4. My psychological wellbeing was a 5 back in Unit 3 and now I would say it is a 7. The improvement is because I have used meditation more often now with success.

I have indeed made some gains towards my goals throughout the 10 weeks. I can say that I have even impressed myself with my ability to adapt to the new exercises that we have had to complete. I did not have the best of luck when attempting them but with each attempt I improved. The meditation is the one exercise that worked for me and one I also enjoyed. I find that each day 15 minutes is all I can do at a time but it is quite rewarding. I feel as though I am able to channel my stress through meditation and I feel much healthier. I haven’t really used the other exercises so I can’t say that work or don’t work. This class has certainly opened my eyes to the many ways that we can control our mind and body.
