Hi All ~
So, I have to compare Subtle Mind with the Loving Kindness exercise. I liked the way Subtle Mind started with focusing on breathing. However, and maybe this is just me tonight, but I didn't like the talking tognight. It felt like it was every 10 seconds or so. So, when I would get in my zone, I was interrupted again. The passed few nights, I have been using the Pandora app on my Nook, and I have found that listening to that has calmed me even more. I focus on my breathing and let my thoughts come and go.
Spiritual, mental and physical all play in together. When I exercise, the endorphins make me very happy, and the spiritual/mental aspect are helped along with that emotion. I find my spirit is lifted since I have listing to the mp3's in this class and meditating on my own.
How do you all feel?
Hi Pam,
ReplyDeleteI also liked how the exercise focused on the breathing. It made my mind feel calmer. I enjoyed this exercise and I am learning how to allow thoughts to come and let them go. It is hard at times especially when it is a bad memory. This class is really helping me see how important is truly is to unify the mind, body, and spirit. They definitely are all connected. I do need to practice being consistent with these meditative practices though. I know it would greatly benefit my life. Do you do any other techniques to help calm your mind? Great Blog!!
