Coming to a Close...Unit 10

Well, here we are...we arrived at the end.

I really enjoyed this class. I liked most of my other classes too but the information I am taking from this class will really help me in my day-to-day life as well as my professional life. I have gained a better understanding of integral health, but my main goal is to incorporate it more. Being so busy with everything else, I usually don't take the time for myself to meditate. I want to exercise more but again, being so busy, it's usually hard to find the time every day. I do make sure to exercise a few days a week though. But I want to every day. I also want to practice loving-kindness more. I really good friend of mine just lost her father suddenly and it made me realize that there is so much more to life than what I see. I want to open my mind and heart more and do more in my community. I want people to remember me as I remember her father. He was always such a happy man. He loved people, he loved God, and he loved his family more than anything. It's such a sad loss for all the people who knew him. I've known him pretty much my entire life because that's how long his daughter and I have been friends. He was known to me as Uncle Mike because he truly felt like a part of my family as well.

Anyway, I don't want to dwell on the sadness because he wouldn't want that. So, on to the ratings...
I don't think I've improved really over the course of the class because I haven't given myself the time to. But now that I have the knowledge and some sources, I will use them more often. I hope to use my journal more often too. I have made some leeway with that...I wrote in my journal a few times over the course of the 10 weeks. But my main goal really is to just take what I've learned and apply it. I've been more open with people also about the information I've gained. I had a very good talk with my mother-in-law and saw a different side of her because I never really knew how she felt about spirituality. So that was nice.

Anyway, I wish everyone the best of luck! I really enjoyed this class with everyone.
