Based on my reflections, I rate my spiritual well-being on a
scale of 1 to 10 as a 10. I rate my
psychological as a 9 and my physical as an 8.
My spiritual well-being is the most important part of my being. I suppose that throws my psychological and
physical off just a little and maybe I should work on bringing all three into
balance. I believe my spiritual
well-being is more developed because I exercise it more than the others. I go to church and worship. I pray and meditate. I read materials that nourish my spirit. If I paid at least that much attention to the
other elements of my being, I think I would be a lot more rounded. Some activities I could implement to assist
in moving toward my physical goal are to get into the best physical shape
possible. I can engage in more physical
activities in my day and by eating healthy and adopting a healthy lifestyle. For my psychological well-being, I could
engage my brain in intellectual games; learn a new language, or even Sudoku. I feel that with a little effort, I can truly
bring my physical, psychological and spiritual well-being into balance.
I enjoyed the exercise.
I felt it was very beneficial in helping me to relax and feel calm. I liked that the exercise used the colors of
the rainbow. For me a rainbow symbolizes
hope.
It's funny, I read this and you remark that you should work harder to bring all three areas into balance, and all I think is "wow, 10, 9, 8. She is doing pretty well!" I think you will always have one area that is stronger then the others, plight of being human, we can't be perfect in everything :) Of course we can always strive for more and better but I would say from how you describe things you are in a seemingly good place. Learning a new language sounds fun, as long as you take a trip to the country and use it while or after you learn it haha!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why but I never looked at rainbows as hope, kind of awe inspiring yes, but not hope exactly. I think I need a nice rainbow and time to stare at its beauty and contemplate now.

Debbie,
ReplyDeleteWow, you have got your act together! I think that you have great ideas that are easily attainable. Spirituality is very important, but I think that balance is always a good thing. Physical activity calms the body as well as to create a healthy physical body.
Good luck on your Sudoku!
