unit 3

On a scale from 1-10 describing my physical wellbeing, spiritual well being, and psychological well being I would have to say a 2 for all of them. My physical well being is low because I hurt all the time and my pain causes a lot of distraction and stress. My spiritual because I feel as though half of the time I am lost and not sure what life has in store for me, and my psychological well being because I have so much stuff going on right now such as my job, no money, school, new baby, just got emergency custody of my daughter who doesn’t want to be up here, and other little things.
My goal for physical well being is that the first of the year I am going to start going to a chiropractor and hopefully once I get my back feeling better, other things will start feeling better. My spiritual goal will have to wait until after I get my degree. My psychological well being will eventually calm down once my daughter goes back to her mom’s, this has been one of the biggest stresses I have ever had in my life and it has came at a very bad stressful time of my life.

 I like to go out and have fun to and go places to help me ease my stress which allows me to focus on achieving my goals. When I get to stressed out even walking around Wal-Mart helps. Any little thing that can take my mind off of things and gives my body a break from all the stress is what I do to help myself get to where I need to be.

These meditation tapes do not work for me, I cannot have relaxing things going through my head when I am stressed because I have not learned yet how to focus out my stress in a quiet place. What helps me is watching a little TV; Maybe a comedy, something to get me thinking like a mystery, or a sporting event. That is what eases my mind.

unit 2

My name is Craig Harrington and I currently
live in Columbus, Ohio. I am not a blogger and if it wasn’t for having to do
this in a previous class I would have never been on here before. I do like that
I can put a face to a lot of names while on here, I usually just give out my Facebook
site but this is just as easy. Hope everyone else likes this more than I do and
hopefully I get a chance to read most of everyone else’s post on here.
I listened to the audio of the Journey on
Relaxation and it pretty much took all I had to finish it. I am not much of a
relaxation audio listener and by the time it was over I had a headache. I hope
everyone else had a better experience than I had and hopefully this will be the
last audio I have to listen to.
I know that both of these post are kind of
negative, please don’t think I complain a lot or that I’m a negative person,
this has just been a really boring exercise for me and I know it will get
better as the term goes on.
