Loving Kindness

After completing the exercises it was liberating. The first exercise allow me to become open minded, and to be honest it came easy for me since I'm a type of person who would wish bad or negative things on people. I have been told that I'm a nice person and how can I be so nice and caring? Well the answer to that is easy it's natural, and would can be that way if he/she allows their self to be that way. I find these exercises beneficial since it takes me away from "real life" situations at the time of doing them.  I think that focusing on myself first and fixing whatever flaws I have about self should be the first thing, and after that I can focus on others and my surroundings, but I believe that change starts within, and once that happens you can move on with yourself. I feel that yoga can help when it comes to optimum health, although I haven't tried that I will consider doing that to help work on my inner self.

  1. Hi Nelly,
    I have to agree with you, we do need to focus on ourselves before we can focus on others. Change does start within and it is hard for people to change some of their bad habits and ways. I struggle with this every day because it is hard to change my habits and attitude about things that I have been doing for many years. I have been working on me for a few months now and my family has seen some changes, but it is a struggle to not go back to the way I was. I haven’t really tried any yoga or meditation, but I am considering it.
    Good luck, Nicki

  2. Hi Channell,

    I like the way you think about being nice naturally. It should come naturally and with training the mind and clarity; it should be just part of who we are.

    I have not tried yoga yet, but intend to. Meditation has been my tool so far.
