Wellness

My physical well being seems to be on the right track as far as how I feel. I have Type 2 Diabetes and was told my glucose levels were normal. Weight wise, I am trying to exercise more and eat better, but there are times I fall short. When you are diagnosed with something as serious as diabetes, falling short is something that can become consistent and later result in health issues, so lessening the falling short phase is something I have got to work harder on. My spiritual wellbeing is good faith wise but I realize I have some work to do in this area as well in that I would like to make more time to meditate by taking the yoga classes provided at our gym. I think practicing this method of being in touch with myself internally through that of the mind will enhance my physical wellbeing overall. My son and I did attend yoga each week but schedules started conflicting. Now we are trying to map out a solution to being able to get back into the swing of things when it comes to our regular routine, which showed lots of benefits when we were doing them regularly - including more physical activity and yoga attendance.

My goal is to become more active; to make time to fully focus on my wellbeing instead of just getting by; and to develop broader social circles, which I think the creation of blogs for this course, as well as the educational relationships we form with each other during class sessions are some ways of opening that door.

The activities come in the form of walking, more instead of taking our car, attending aerobics and yoga classes. Those things provide stimulation and once becoming more in practice, will prove results since results were present before we tapered off from doing them.

It is always good to open oneself up to relaxation but in order to do that one must be able to fully focus. Thinking about how I can improve my blog has brought a bit of stress present that has been difficult to maneuver so it is hard to say just how beneficial the exercise was but I will try again and provide better input.
