Final Entry Unit 10

This has been a great journey and wish everyone the best of luck on all your future endeavors! This is the end of the road for me here at Kaplan and once my final grades post I will have earned my Bachelor's in Health Sciences!!

In Unit 3 I graded my psychological, physical, and spiritual well-being. My physical well-being was at a 6 out of 10. Now I would say that I am at a 7. I have been working so hard to lose weight and eat healthy and I have currently lost 20 pounds. I am starting to notice a difference physically and so are other people. It feels so good to have someone tell me I am looking skinny.  My psychological well-being I rated as a 10. I would say that now I would rate it a 8. Even though I am still free from mental illnesses and such I now realize my mental health is not as good as it can be.  I am having a much easier time meditating and clearing my mind so I would rate it at an 8.  My spiritual health I rated at a an 8 in unit three and I would say I am about the same. I still have some work to do in all aspects of my well-being, but I am making changes.

My physical well-being goals I am keeping up on and am making progress.  My spiritual well-being goal has not been met yet and that was to attend church at least once a month.  I am currently in the process of trying to find a church.  Finally, I had not set a phycological goal because I felt I needed no progress in that area. Now I would set the goal to meditate at least twice a week.

I feel that this course has helped me work toward my goal of integral health. It has help me clear my mind so much faster and more effectively. Learning how to properly clear my mind was very difficult and I do still struggle with it, just not as much. This class has taught me so very much and I am very thankful for what I have learned and am taking with me.

  1. It has been a very interesting course, hasn't it? I see from your post that you have improved in some and not in others, but that is something that will be easy for you to work on with the education that you have received in this course. I am also on a quest to lose weight, so I am very excited at your success! Focus on your successes and everything else will fall into place.

    Best of luck to you in your life and in your future studies at Kaplan! :0)
