My well-being

A.      Physical well-being score: 7, because I am rarely sick, and I feel great most of time, except for a little fatigue related to all that I have on my plate, but I do very well for all the things I accomplish on a daily basis.   Goal: I would like to try to fit in regular exercise at least 3 x per week instead of 1 or 2 that I currently do, since I feel my best when I exercise, also need to eat less sweets, (but don’t we all?)
B.      Spiritual well-being score: 4, this area has been lacking, mainly because I am moving away from what I was raised to believe and becoming more open minded, but just not sure where to go yet.  I believe there is a higher being and I know that prayer and meditation help the soul.  Goal: To do more meditation, breathing and still/quiet time.  At least meditation weekly.
C.      Psychological well-being score: 6, because I am determined and positive attitude, but have a lot more I need to accomplish, I do get stressed at times.   Goal: Try not to be so hard on myself, maybe d a motivational challenge and journal
The relaxation exercise, not sure why it is called Crime of the Century, but I was dreading it at first just because I was having some negative energy at the time.  I really enjoyed it, and ended up replaying it multiple times.  When I originally learned to do meditation I was taught to breathe in and visualized a white light entering your body and healing you and when you breathe out to visualize a black light and that you are ridding your body of all impurities, so visualizing the colors to the breathing was good for me.  I did change a few of colors since I felt red was an angry color.

  1. I was thrown off by the title also, but I really enjoyed this exercise. Meditation always has helped me work things out or put things in perspective. Calming my mind down from life, really helps me stay centered.
