Unit 10: blog


Surprisingly, I did better than I thought I was going to do. My progress was much higher than my prediction. In week 3, which is about a month and half ago, I was already working out somewhat intensely and was in the process of getting back in shape. Yet, I was not losing that much losing weight at that point, so physically I would give myself 6. Spiritually, I was doing above the average. I was very stable both mentally and physically, but I could not attend any religious events because I had to work on weeknights and also Sundays. So despite the fact I was able to maintain the mental peacefulness, I was not so happy with how I was spending the time during the summer. Because of that, I would rate my spiritual part 5. Lastly, my psychological has never been an issue. I would rate it 8.

Once I came back to school, I have been staying healthy. In fact, to support my physical health, not I have been working out, but I started taking supplements to intake adequate nutrients. Also, I don't work much when I'm in school, so I sleep really well, which helps me in multiple ways. Spiritually, I started participating religious activities again, so I feel much more comfortable with myself and how I am living my life.

Throughout the course, I really think I did well. I usually make positive comments in last unit just to give positive feedbacks, but for this course, I have set reasonable goals and I met the goals successfully. Activities wise, I didn't really have any problems. I love trying out new things and I love improvements. So I didn't have any problems regarding the activities. If I were to pick any difficulties, that would be making a powerpoint slide in Unit 5. My powerpoint sort of broke down and I could not use it for weeks till I fixed it. So it was really frustrating. But overall, I had a really great time in this course and I learned to improve my health status in different ways.

  1. Hiro,

    Congratulations on the success you have found this term. It is good that you renewed your "membership" in your religious practices. Just as we go to the gym for support and to work on our physical goals; we have to find this same type of avenues of support for our other goals in our life. I know at time it seems as though we have no time but just remember it doesn't have to be an hour in the gym or in any other facet to keep on track with our goals. Take 5 - 30 minutes to incorporate your practices in some way and when you have more time get back to what works best for you as an individual. Best wishes in your journeys!!
