Creation Health Discovery Summary

Superior Essays
The first concept that I learned in this book called “creation health discovery” written by Des Cummings JR. is that you must relax before bedtime. At first, this didn’t make any sense to me because most of the time when I am about to sleep, I get stressed on what might happen the next day. Even though this happens, I am still able to get 7- 8 hours, but I would still question myself on why am I stil sleepy in some of my classes. What I realized was, if you do a daily devotional or read a book two hours before you sleep, then you will sleep even more efficiently than you would if you were doing school work or watching t.v..
The second concept that I learned in this book was to invest in friendships. When I read this part in Interpersonal relationship, I had to look more into what the author was talking about. Apparently, it meant to sufficiently contributing time and exertion is particularly vital on the grounds that, without these, the companionship comes apart.

On p. 24, Cummings talks about the four success steps (Choose, Notice, Prioritize and Act). Just by reading those four steps, I haven’t been making good healthy choices in the past couple of weeks. I’m always talking about being healthy, but I’m not following through. Environment- The reason why I chose this as one of the areas in which I want to apply to life is because I need to “take a moment to think about your personal environment” p. 43, and take in God’s handiwork. Another thing that I was trying was actually in the book, the author was talking about listening to relaxing music. This semester I chose to listen to just Gospel music, just listening to this type has reduced stress, and just a sense of peace. After experiencing this, I feel like a totally different

    In GPS 1010, I have learned that a person’s mindset is established in (1) a particular way of thinking; or (2) a person’s attitude and set of opinions about something. In addition to these items, one can either have a growth mindset or a fixed mindset. These mindsets play a huge role in one’s success or failure. The mindset has “two meanings to ability, not one: a fixed ability that needs to be proven and a changeable ability that can be developed through learning” and repetition. To sum up, “the fixed mindset makes you concerned with how you’ll be judged; the growth mindset makes you concerned with improving.”…

    “Teens need about 8 to 10 hours of sleep per day,” says the National Sleep Foundation’s website, which describes the facts and consequences of sleep deprivation for teens.

This proves that getting to bed earlier is not a simple solution. Going through the day feeling tired and moody is not beneficial to students nor to schools, teachers, or staff.…

    In the beginning of Roberta M. Gilberts textbook Extraordinary Relationships: A New Way of Thinking About Human Interactions (1992), she argues “In the realm of the purely personal - after food, water, and shelter - the quality of relationships most often determines the quality of life” (p. 3). I believe this statement perfectly sums up how vital and necessary human relationships are for human life, and the strong impact they play on having a positive and meaningful life. There were several concepts presented throughout chapters 1 - 12. They were each of equal importance and each greatly impacts the understanding of relationships. In order to have a purposeful life and a greater understanding of relationships, there are many crucial concepts that must be understood, three of them are differentiation of self, thinking systems, and the relationship pattern of cutoff.…

    The human brain is a fascinating yet complex notion to grasp for the majority of people. Only a handful of individuals have truly discovered the many intricate components of the mind; however, even they still have a long way to go before they can absorb the infinite miracles of the brain.
