Personal well-Being



My physical well being is at 8. I exercise at least 3-4 times a week. I do eat a low carbohydrate diet to  maintain my weight. My spiritual well-being is a 7 at present time. I do meditate on a daily basis, but still I am not able to go to the Buddhist temple or my meditation groups like I used to do due to restricted time and multitasking college, family, career and personal time. My psychological well-being is a 6 at present time. This low score is due to feeling overwhelmed at times and trying to keep up with all my obligations that my mind is taking a toll on it
My personal goal to improve my overall well-being
Physically: I am planning to continue with my exercise routine and incorporate weight training. Also planning to incorporate dancing at least once a week.
Spiritually: I am planning to go back with my meditation group and visit the Buddhist temple a least on Sundays once  I complete  my BSN program.
Psychologically: I am going to start using my left brain and learn to let go of things that I can’t control and stop overanalyzing situations. Also, to simplify my life to have more time to enjoy the things that I enjoy doing like spending more time with family, traveling and reading a good book.
The relaxation exercise experience was very gratifying and relaxing to me. I was able to visualize and feel all rainbow colors. The benefits that I was able to receive were relaxation of my entire body and I was able to receive the energy from all the colors. The experience was similar to chakra healing.  I did enjoy this relaxation exercise.

  1. Hello,

    I like the idea of working on the left brain. This is a goal that will prove useful in the future.

  2. Ah yes, simplifying life. What a great idea, I am also working on. Why complicate it? The less you have to worry about the more you can focus on your wellness (all aspects).
    Keep up with the exercise, there really is no better way to treat your body.
    Best of luck!
