 Physical-Spiritual-Psychological


On a scale of 1-10 my physical well-being is an 8. I work hard, I train hard but my eating habits suffer because of my crazy hours at work or sometimes I just don’t have the money. There is definitely room for improvement with my training also but I see big accomplishments in the last 3 to 4 months. The spiritual well-being is still very new, I know of it but not as focused. I would probably be a 4 maybe a 5 with push. That’s why thank god for my wife she would be a 10 plus and gives me that push. Now psychological well-being I would be a 10 but you ask my wife she may give you a different answer.

My goal to improve my physical well-being is get into the habit of planning and writing down my daily activities, with my spiritual it would be to just get more involved, maybe participating in bible study every Tuesday or Church on Sunday or dedicating 1 to 2hrs a week for my time to reflect and understand. I think what I do for my spiritual goal would help with my psychological well-being
Not sure what exercise but church and bible studies would help as activities.

I am sorry the jury is still out on the relaxation exercise I am just not a big fan of it. I have too much on my brain with, my newborn daughter, writing fitness programs for clients, preparing for the week, and building my fitness business. When I have things to do it is hard for me to take naps, and relax unless the work is done. I do relax when I am exercising or on Sundays I play baseball or football.

  1. I like your idea of a bible study and agree this is a great way to improve your spiritual well-being. I know when I have done bible studies in the past it was a huge help, but I find between four kids and homework I just do not have time to do a study. I do plan on spending more time reading the bible and praying. I would suggest reading Proverbs since there are 31 that is one for each day for a month.
    I rated myself an 8 in physical well-belling because I also feel I work hard, but there is always room for improvement. I feel I can improve one my eating sometimes I slip and just figure I will work it off at the gym. One way that helps is if I plan out my meals in advance. I fill a few days worth of veggies and fruit in a bag for my kids lunch, which is helpful when you are busy this way it is already made and you just have to grab and go.
    I also have a hard time relaxing and just being still, but I am really making the effort in this class to do it. I am so surprised at how much it helps, but do agree it is going to take some practice and some getting use to to be able to fully relax.

  2. Don't get me wrong here, but it really is nice to hear that other personal trainers do not have perfect eating and exercising habits. Like you I find myself sometimes (usually at the end of the pay period) in a situation where I can not afford to eat the way I want and I end up up just settling for whatever is in the house. Thank you for being so honest!!!
