As I reflect on my past and future health I realize that my physical well being is probably at about a 3 since I have not exercised in several months. I had been doing real good with being consistent in my exercise and then I had some issues that are hard to explain and I quiet exercising. However this is one thing that I plan on getting back into since I am feeling better and have my energy back. As for my spiritual well being I feel it is probably at about a 8 since I have gotten in school I have slowed on going to church and that means so much to me. However I do listen to my Christian music every morning on my 45 minute drive to work and that gets me set for the day so I do feel that that is my church time right know. As for my psychological wellbeing I feel it is probably about a 5 because my issues that affected my physical wellbeing has affected my psychological well being as well. However with this all going in the right direction with some changes I have made in my life I do feel that it will improve and I will be able to over come the issues and move on to a 10 soon.
As soon as I get to feeling better , I have had some sinus problems the past few days just as I begin to feel better form other issues, I will start exercising every morning for 10 minutes and working up to 30 minutes. I will use my gazelle with out any compression and then as I get in better shape I will add the compression to give me more stamina. This will help me to feel better and have more energy I know because I always felt better when I was exercising before. As for my spiritual I will begin going to church when I can and then just work to realize that my time with my music int he mornings is very sufficient to being spiritually well. Then for the psychological well being I will work to do more meditation and as time goes by and use then to help me have more peace within to help with my psychological well being.
As I listened to the relaxation Crime of the Century I did begin to feel more relaxed this time. I was able to listen to the exercise and actually focus on the areas he talked about and I could feel my breath go to the areas of focus. I did feel some what better afterward, however I am not feeling very good right know and so that does have some to do with it.
Thanks you all for coming to my blog and reading my thoughts that I enjoy sharing with each and every one.My God bless you through out the day and in the future.
Hi Jackie,
ReplyDeleteI completely understand how you feel. There are never enough hours in the day, but we would not really want any extra becaue we would just fill them up with stuff. I am realizing at my age that it is time to take a slower pace to things. It is not because I am tired, it is just because I feel that I am missing out on a lot of the good stuff because I am trying to do too much.
I have heard a saying for many years, it goies like this..."the one with the most toys wins". I have learned that having the most offers the least. Giving the most allows us to have more.
One day at a time is only good if we get to enjoy the day. I know we have to work, and school and family are very important. But through these classes I am learning to enjoy moments throughout the day. Instead of just feeling like there goes another day and waiting for the next one to start.
I started a moments journal in my iPhone. Wen I feel like I have just experiences one of those "ahh moments" I write down one or two words and at the end of the day I take a look. It is my goal to beat the amount of "ah moments" each day by at least 1.
You take care...I think you are doing great!

ReplyDeleteYou are so right we have to just take one day at a time and find the quiet moment of the day. That is really hard for me because my husband always has the TV on and he gets up in the morning when I do so it is hard to find that quiet moment of the day for me. However this is something I will continue to work on and see where I can put a quiet moment of for the day because I do feel that is so very important.
Hi Jackie,
ReplyDeleteI am really glad to hear that you were able to get into the relaxation technique more this time than the last - it is such agreat feeling to actually get into it and let it take over, isn't it?
It is amazing how all aspects of our lives are connected, you state that the psychological and physical aspects of you life when down a bit around the same times and I can understand your feelings. I have some issues that physically since I was not feeling well and having no energy that mentally my mind went with it and it is a struggle to get back to the way things were! I hope you continue your wonderful journey and get back to where you need and want to be!
