In review of my personal assessment in unit 3, I would continue to score my overall assessment as an 8. I know that I am hard on myself and want perfection (not really expecting it). I can actually say, I have made progress toward my goals. I have continued with my daily meditation practice, walked daily (almost ever day, except when it rained, then I did yoga and other activities), and enjoyed re-visiting my old yoga practices.
This class has not only been an education in how to help as a health care provider, but a transformational experience. I am sleeping better than I was prior to this class, I have lost weight (YES! And I am going to continue with this goal also), and my general attitude about my life has improved. I have always been a positive person and have been able to make some awesome lemonade out of circumstances in my life. This class has given me more tools to put in my toolbox for the future and to be able to teach others as well.
The most difficult practice has been simply doing it. Yep! Sometimes I am a just average American woman who just wants things to happen all by themselves. This is hard work and I would rather be reading! But, I also know that with hard work come wonderful results. That made it worth the investment of my time and energy. Well worth it in the end.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI hear you loud and clear it has been one heck of an experience going through this class. I also have learned a great deal about myself during these ten weeks. I enjoyed most of all the different forms of meditation, specially the breathing exercise. Keep doing a great job like you we all should see great fruits from this labor. Until than take care. Jose
It's been quite a journey for all of us. Keep up the great work and Jose said we will see the fruits. I actually started seeing some, let's keep the momentum going.

Hello Cynthia,
ReplyDeleteI really think that this class has been a great plus in all our lives. We all were weak in some area of our lives, but we have grown in understanding on how to achieve Integral Health and Wellness. That is one of the most precious gifts we all can have. I enjoyed you and I hope to see you again... Thanks for the post on my blog.
Time is the healer too ---- not just taking the time for the meditative practices but just slowing down altogether, giving our spirits, our minds and our bodies a chance and an opening to heal...we are all going to fast, too hard, too long... we have to stop the merry go round and get off once in a while.
