Unit 5 Discussion

 
Hi everyone,
 
Compare and contrast the Loving Kindness exercise and the Subtle mind exercise. Explain your experience including the benefits, frustrations etc.  I found this exercise to be completely relaxing and it helped relieve my headache to a certain degree.  However, the only frustration that I had was I listening to the water sound in the background, well let's just say I had to start all over again after I made a trip down the hall. 
 
Discuss the connection of the spiritual wellness to mental and physical wellness. Explain how the connection is manifested in your personal life.  The connection of my spiritual wellness to my mental and physical wellness is going to be improving drastically.  After I listened to all 3 of the relaxing exercises, I feel totally awesome afterwards and I want it to stay that way, so I am making changes to my personal life effective immediately, because it is so relaxing and helps me focus on what really matters and it also helps me sort out what doesn't or shouldn't matter and well, it is a great feeling.

  1. I am so glad you had benefit from the exercise this week. I loved this one, I have done it for some time now. It does work, just have to have adequate time and time to yourself. I totally agree with what you say about making changes, I realized from this weeks exercise I need to find more ways to clear my mind and relax. I am the grandma to an 19 month old little boy and it can very hectic and stressful here
    to say the least. Great job on the blog entry this week.

  2. I really enjoyed the exercise as well. It seemed like you had a trial and error, but succeeded. I found it hard at first to focus and the harder I tried the easier it got. It helped me clear my mind for sure. I get mirgraines as well and I think this is something I might try since typical medicine doesn't really help. Great Post!

  3. Sonia,

    I enjoyed this one too. Yes, I am about changing my lifestyle to include this meditation. I have found it relaxing and I enjoyed the water sound and the flute.
