Favorites

I want to start off saying that I really enjoyed this class. This class have taught me a lot. My two favorites are: Loving and Kindness and Subtle Mind. But most of all I really enjoyed the meditation techniques we have been doing in seminar. I have been doing them techniques along with praying. For the last couple of weeks I have had a hard time because the doctors thought my daughter had a disease called Congenital Adrenal Gland Hyperplasia and she have been doing test after test. My daughter is only 8 yrs old. So, at first my mind was not focus. I was a nervous wreck. I have not figured this out yet but why things can be going so good then something comes along and turn it all around. But I knew I had to gain control so I prayed and prayed. Then in between praying I added the meditation. And I begin to feel much better. Then my heart and mind was at ease and at that moment I knew my daughter was fine. So, Friday I called the doctor to get the testes results and the ones that was back showed that she don't have that disease. So, right now I am waiting on one more test result that should come sometimes next month. But after I got them results I thanked God because I know he is the one that did it. There is so much power in prayer. I am so glad I took this class because my stress level have gotten so much better. But lately, when the devil throw me a curve ball I just catch it and say oh ok God I am going to let you handle this one. And I do. Sometimes it comes to my mind but I do not worry about it. I have seen a major change. Before I took this class I would cry and cry until I am totally stress out then I would have to go to the doctor for stomach pain. I am so happy with where I am now and I know I have to keep working on it for it can get better. In my future I see myself as being successful and comfortable. I do not want all the money in the world i just want to be comfortable. And I do not think I am asking for a lot but that what I want my future to be. I know I will have that future. I know I have to go through the storm and the struggles to get there but I will get there.


I want to thank you all for the great support. I have learned a lot from you all and I will never forget you all.

Much Love

Unit 7

One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself



I agree with this statement but I ca also see where that person can still help you. It can be by just showing that person empathic or even giving them your shoulder. Everybody is not perfect and integral health is developed at that person pace. So, I believe if you explain to your clients that you are also working on your wellness they will understand. As you help them with their wellness, they can also help you. A team effort. Implementing psychological and spiritual growth has helped me to handle stress much better. I have seen a big change in the way I handle my life. I don't let stress consume my life like I use to. And with this change I am much happy.





I was unable to listen to the mindfulness CD track 4. I would not even play for me. So, I will try again later. But I had no problem with the CD until track 4.

Unit 6

The Loving Kindness (meditation) lifted anger out of my heart and mind. I did this meditation when I was having a hard time dealing with things that happen in my life. I was anger that the devil always put things in our life to bring us down. But doing this meditation it made me feel better. It helped me to get back on the right track and I know that I deserve to be happy no matter what obstacle I have to overcome. I have to put happiness, health and wholeness in my life before I can help somebody achieve the same things. But I know the things that I am going through is going to make me stronger and in the end I am going to live that happy comfortabe life that I want and deserve.

The area I need to focus on is psychospiritual. Emotional development is the line I need to work on because I need to control my emotions. When I let my emotions take control of me I do not have a clear mind. When I start to get stressed out my emotions be all over the place and I need to control them. When my emotion is all over the place it puts a strain on my faith. The exercises I plan on doing are thinking more positively, reading my Bible more, praying more and meditation. I put this quote on my bedroom wall Write your worries in sand Carve your Blessings in Stone. I read that quote every morning because it reminds me that my blessings outweigh my worries. I need positive quotes to keep me focus.

Loving Kindness and Subtle Mind

I did enjoyed this exercise. I was able to relax and just enjoy it. When I first listened to the Loving Kindness CD I did not really connect with it. But it was different this time. After I listened to CD of Subtle Mind I was so relaxed, my mind was clear and I was focus. Then I was able to relax and sleep. I am not sure why I did not get in tuned with Loving Kindness CD but I did not. Maybe when I get a chance I will go back and listen to it again now that I am use to the voice.

Spiritual and Physical Wellness

Spiritual Wellness enhances the connection between your mind and body. A person’s core and value system is linked to the spiritual dimension. Common activities that strengthen spirituality involve prayerful meditation, yoga, going to church or temple or mosque, and communing with nature. These activities become a source of enlightenment for most leaders. Physical Wellness is developing healthy activities that benefit your body such as nutritious eating and exercise. It is taking care of your body. The physical needs of the body must be taken cared of. Proper care involves regular exercise, eating foods that provide proper nourishment, doing relaxing activities that promote sufficient rest.

Since this class my spiritual and physical wellness has increased so much. But I still have some work to do. Spiritual and mental wellness go together. To increase my spiritual wellness I have started to read my Bible more. To increase my physical wellness I started to make time to exercise to work that in my schedule. This class has taught me so many ways where I can increase both my goals. And one day with physical and spiritual wellness my score will be a 10. That is my goal.



Thanks Kali
