Practices
Over the past few weeks we have been doing a few meditation exercises that were suppose to have us tap into our inner selves. While, I found each exercise to be different in its own way, the two that I found to be most beneficial was the Meeting Aesculapius and the Loving Kindness exercise. Ways to incorporate these two exercises in life can quite simple choosing a time and day where you are less distracted can be helpful in practicing each exercise. These exercises can be incorporated in life by actually practicing what was meditated and using it in real life situations. For example you can show love and kindness towards one another and in terms of the Meeting Aesculapius can allow you to have peace with someone your thinking about having that person with you in spirit, this is what I liked most about this exercise.

Hi Nelly,
ReplyDeleteI first wanted to say I love how you brightened up your page, it looks awesome. I have to agree with you about the love and kindness exercise, it can be very beneficial to everyone’s lives. I just wish that more people in this world would use these exercises in their lives. I find that many people I deal with on a day to day basis are angry and bitter and just downright rude. I use to be angry a lot but this particular exercise has helped me bring love and kindness back into my life, I just wish that others would. This world doesn’t have to be filled with such prejudice and hate, we are all one and people really need to find these things in their own lives so they can use them out in the world. I think this will make the world a better place, good blog.

Channell,
ReplyDeleteI also found loving kindness one of my favorites and one that I found a lot of benefit from. I have been lacking in this aspect of my life; not that I am not compassionate. I am a very compassionate person. For me, it was directing the loving kindness to everyone and not just a select few.
There is so much hate and predjudice in our world today. Everyone could use some practice on loving kindness to be sure.
