4. Summarize your personal experience throughout this course. Have you developed improved well-being? What has been rewarding? What has been difficult? How will this experience improve your ability to assist others?
My experience has been very challenging, but successful. I have made major improvements in mood and overall wellness. I have enjoyed each person in this class and all of your stories. The thing that has been the most rewarding has been my new relaxed and mental awareness. I love how I cope with things much more positivity and don't sweat the small stuff. This has improved my personal life and professional life in many aspects. I have more patience for my clients needs and dilemmas. I also don't get as angry at things people do. Overall I would say that this class has changed me for the better. Thanks :)

Unit 10 blog #3
3. Have you implemented the activities you chose for your well-being in each of the three areas? Explain. I have implemented all of the activities that I stated in the previous blogs and have been very successful at accomplishing what I said that I was going to do. I just need to make a little more time to meditate and workout a little more each week. I have upped my cardio to 5 times per week and weights 5 times per week for an hour-hour and 1/2. I feel wonderful about what I have accomplished in this class.

2. Review the goals and activities you set for yourself in each area. Have you made progress toward the goals? Explain.
Throughout the course I have assessed myself in each domain. For my physical wellness I exercise on a regular basis. I participate in weight training 5-6 days per week for about 11/2-2 hours. I also do cardiovascular exercise 4-5 times per week for 30 minutes-60 minutes at a time. I eat a healthy diet consisting of all the major food groups, drink about 64 ounces of water a day, and take a few vitamins. Overall I would rate my physical wellness at a 9. There is always room to improve physically so I would not rate myself at a 10.
My psychological wellness I have tried to maintain a positive attitude for a few years now. I always try to turn a bad situation into a positive one. I seem to be less stressed than I used to be. I take yoga as a part of my regular workout routine and this has helped me cope with things much easier. However, I still have my bad days and sometimes find it impossible to think happy thoughts. I am working on improving this by my positive outlook and meditation practices. I would rate my psychological wellness at a 7. I am striving for 10 and I feel it will come after I graduate and start my career.
My spiritual wellness has improved since taking this class. I realize that I am not the most spiritual person, but I feel that this is what works best for me. I have made remarkable changes by doing meditation on a regular basis. I love how it has made me more aware of myself. This has helped me work on loving myself and others much more. I would rate my spiritual wellness at a 7. I still need to work on mediation more often. I feel sometimes I could try to make more time for this.

1. Review your unit 3 personal assessment of your psychological, physical, and spiritual well-being. Reflect on these areas . How did you score yourself on a scale from 1 to 10 in unit 3? How do you score yourself now? Has the score changed? Why or why not?
For my physical goal I could try to prioritize my time better so that I could make more time to work on my physical goals. In unit three I would score my physical as a 9 and now as a nine. I will never give up on fitness and nutrition. For my psychological goal I could keep pushing even when things are very mental challenging such as mental Olympic training. This would be my biggest challenge since I have so much going on in my life. I try my best to keep pushing, but sometimes I don't have the energy. In unit 3 I gave myself a 6 and now I give it a 7. I still need to make more time, but I have made improvements. For my spiritual goal I will make time to meditate. This is something that I have wanted to do for a while, but sometimes get side tracked when I am busy. In unit 3 I gave myself a 6 and now I give myself a 7. I have made more time and have improved, but still have a long way to go.
