Rainbows, prism, colors, breathing......fantastic exercise. I really enjoyed using each color for a different part of my body. Relaxing is very important to me as I am a pretty wired person and I tend to stress a lot. Practicing these new exercises has been fun. This exercise was beneficial because it took me to a happy, cheerful place with bright, vivid colors. I think that this type of exercise can be easily used by anyone that has a creative visualization ability. People with limited imagination will have a hard time doing this exercise not because it is not efficient but because they need to train their mind to let go and let the colors shine brightly.
My physical well being is in on a 7 scale. Am I being generous? Maybe. I have been in very bad shape for a long time but loosing a tremendous amount of weight, toning my body and eating healthy took me to a new level of youth and rejuvenation that makes me feel very good with myself. My main goal is to stay healthy to the highest point possible. Staying healthy with a strong immune system will help me maintain a healthy body that will age gracefully. Or at least, any woman hopes for that.....
My psychological well being, what is that? Just kidding. I am actually going through a difficult time in my personal life but I still consider to be at a 7 on the scale from 1 to 10, ten being optimal. I pray, meditate and choose soothing activities and quiet times that help me gather myself. My goal is to train my mind towards positivity and happiness by making the right choices and than putting them into action.
My spiritual well being is at a 9 on the scale of 1 to ten. Why is it this high? Because of my personal problems, I reflected on my spiritual life and my connection with God, therefore I came closer to my God and dedicated myself to a better and deeper connection with my spirituality. My goal is to deepen my relationship with God learn to live a happy life in complete faith without fear and doubt.
Shirley,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your post and also liked that you included a picture of a rainbow, very cute touch! :) When the audio for this week first started talking about rainbows, I started choosing a color for each body section, unfortunately they had already chosen colors different than mine! lol
I think it is wonderful that you have become so high on the scale spiritually. It does seem like sometimes we must go through a hard time to connect spiritually. Luckily, with the new found close relationship with God it should be easier to understand that happiness is just around the corner.

Hello Shirley,
ReplyDeleteLet me start of by saying that your blog design is awesome!! I love the butterflies and rainbows. How amazing do you feel since losing the weight and toning? I’m working on obtaining those same goals and know that it will be hard work but so rewarding. I was saddened to read that you were going through a rough personal experience but happy to see that your faith is helping you heal. Staying positive and being around positive like minded people really does help. I wish you the best and hope you have had a wonderful day.
