Hi Everyone,
Well this week's exercise was another relaxation technique called Crime of the Century and I'm sorry to say I found it just as boring as the last one. I'm just not a sit and listen to someone talking about colors and relaxing and have it work for me. I'm having a hard time with those whole meditation, picturing colors and other things that most would find relaxing, just not into this stuff. But on to the other questions for this weeks blog post. Physical wellbeing I would rate myself at 7 and I do have a goal to improve this and that is to increase my exercise during the week. I plan to move from 2-3 days a week to 3-4 days a week, have a plan in place to work this into my schedule during the week for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and the fourth day will be either Saturday or Sunday. Spiritual well-being would be my weakest area, not very spiritual, so I will go with a rating of 3 and as far as a goal to improve that, well I'm taking this course to try and increase my knowledge on the benefits of spiritual well-being and physcial and psychological health. Psychological well-being is my strongest area with a rating of 8, I have a very strong mind and have learned over the years just how to control the stress in my life and keep myself in balance. Improvement is always needed right, so in this area my goal will be to increase my levels of relaxation by learning some techniques in meditating (without the little voice) just relaxing on my own with maybe the sounds of nature-no voice. So I guess that completes this weeks blog. See everyone in discussion. I like discussion boards better and wished these exercises were posted there so we could all share.

Hi Tracie,
ReplyDeleteI tried that relaxation exercise and for a short period of time I was into but my daughter snap me back to reality. She thought something was wrong with me and I started laughing. Then I watched the clip and it had colors and waves that moved with his voice. I thought it was weird because I found myself focusing on that and tuned his voice out. Now that worked for me. I like when it rains because I can lay down and listen to it and that relaxes me a lot. I am still learning to control my stress levels because my kids sure do put me to the test. :)
