Unit 3

Question #1: I would rate my physical wellbeing at about a five. I am going to rate it here because I am just starting to be more physically active, and after having two children I would say that I am still in moderate shape. I would rate my spiritual wellbeing at about a six. I am rating it here because I can calm myself just enough to handle any, well almost any, anger or fears that I may encounter. I would rate my psychological wellbeing at about a three. I am going to rate it here because I have seizures. Now I am going to elaborate on this a little. I have, what I call anxiety attacks and my doctor calls them "mini" seizures, and this causes more stress on me than I would say anything else. I get so scared because it feels as though I am going to have one and, to me, they are one of the scariest things that I have experienced.


Question #2: My physical goal is to get my weight back down to about 130-135, I am now at 150. I would also like to be more physically healthy and active. My spiritual goal is to be able to completely shut everything out and be able to relax whenever I need. I would love to be able to do this at night when I lay down for bed, I believe that this would help me sleep better at night and get rid of my insomnia. My psychological goal is to control the "mini" seizures or anxiety attacks that I have. I have on average anywhere from 5-10 per day, I would like to get that down to at least 1-3 per day. I would love to have absolutely none but I doubt that that will happen.


Question #3: An activity that I can incorporate, which I have already started, for my physical goal would be to do workout videos and walk about a mile or two per day. An activity that I can incorporate for my spiritual goal, which this can also help with my physical goal, would be yoga. And finally for my psychological goal I can incorporate meditation. This will allow me to open my mind and relax, which I feel will help with my anxiety.


Question #4: This relaxation exercise, as well as the last one, has made me relaxed. I really enjoy these exercises they help me relax after a long hard day.
