Evaluating my level of wellness

Hello,
I hope everyone had a good holiday! I was very bust seeing family, well I have found it difficult to evaluate my level of wellness; physically, psychologically, and spiritually. I really had to look deep inside myself to do this exercise. But, based on my reflections, and on a scale of 1 to 10 (ten being optimal well being), I rate my physical well being as a 9. physically I am healthy, but there is always need for improvement, such as eating healthier, for my spiritual well-being I rate myself as an 7, I need some work on this area because I feel restless at me at take life too seriously. I need to just stop enjoy the environment and be grateful for what I have.With my psychological well-being I rate is at an 8 because I do things to make me relax, such as yoga but I do not do it everyday to help relax my mind, I often get frantic and stressed.
My goals for my physical health would be to eat more healthier foods (getting more fruits and veggies and less snack food.) My goal for spiritual health do more silence prayers and find three different things everyday to be grateful for. For my psychologically wellness my goal would be to do yoga everyday and take that time to reflect on my day to relax my mind and body.
Some activities or exercise that I can implement in my life to assist in moving toward each goal would be first to find someone such as a family member who will support me in my goals and help me reach them, because having support in my life will help. Another activity would be doing yoga, once you exercise your mind and body that is when I want to eat healthy and exercise such as running or walking.
I love the The Crime of the Century exercise, this was the most relaxing exercise that I have done. His voice was soothing, which helped me relax. I believe that this benefit my psychologically wellness, this exercise helped me relax and let my stress go. I had found myself drifting off and imagine myself on the beach, and because I was so relaxed I could see and 'feel' the colors. What frustrated me, and I had found this on a lot of guided mediation is my breathing rhythms are different than how they try to guide you to breathe. I love this exersice and I recommened it .
