Dr. Love
The loving kindness aspect of the Unit 4 assignment was different than I expected. I t was somewhat weird because it made me think about someone I really love and than transfer that to my body. I did not find it beneficial at the time I did it because I think I was too focused on other things to really grasp a great concept of this weeks assignment. I would recommend this assignment to others but only once they have a clear mind because I feel that this exercise can and will only be beneficial to those with clear minds. The concept of a mental workout is to keep the brain trained to move from one elemental form of thinking and doing to another. This gives the individual practice at being in the soundest of mental states at all times. This can be beneficial to your health mentally and physically. It can reduce stress, headaches and body pains that are associated with stress as well as give an individual a sense of purpose or being. You can use mental workouts to deal with everyday life events and stress. This can help you come to a calm mental state anytime without stressing too much about one particular thing.

Tyler,
ReplyDeleteWhat did you think of the part that instructed you to think of an enemy and intake their negativity and pain into yourself? I found this part to be very difficult and I am trying to see what others thought of it. I felt the exercise was going fine up until that point. Maybe I am just not at peace enough with myself to accept that kind of person's energy, negative or otherwise. What do you think?
