During unit 3 personal assessment I gave my self a 5 in all three aspects of well-being (physical, spiritual, and psychological). Now I can say that I was only a 3 in a scale for 0-10. I have increase my physical activity, reduced carbohydrate intake in my diet, and practicing meditation/prayers for 10 minutes every day at bed time. Now in unit ten I give myself a 6-7 score.
I have learned a lot during this course specially meditation and relaxation techniques that are very helping when dealing with every day stress. Meditation is a way to eliminate the lack of balance caused by mental stress. By spending time in meditation, we create a calm haven to restore balance to our physical, mental, and spiritual functioning.
We must teach with example and promote positive changes in health to our clients. It is important to realized people are motivated by positive actions, and results. When we practice we become part of the action, and other will follow.

Hello Ms. Luna Blogger,
ReplyDeleteI also learned a lot about meditation. I learned that my praying everyday and night is a type of meditation. So I have been meditating for as long as I can remember. And this is good. You wrote that “by spending time in meditation, we create a calm haven to restore balance to our physical, mental, and spiritual functioning” and I agree whole heartedly with that comment. I hope you experienced and learned about all the benefits that this course had to offer as I did.
Good luck to you and take care.
