Hello Fellow Bloggers,

 

I actually enjoyed this meditation more than I have the other ones.  It was relaxing and I was able to perform most of the directions.  It was very difficult for me to think about a group of people to help without putting faces to them.  I found the next segment even more difficult when it said to include my enemies. 

 

I would recommend this to other people, especially if they had someone special in their life that needed special help.  I think it will help someone be able to help their loved one.  The person that I immediately thought of was my son who has ADHD and some anger issues.  I secretly hope he felt
my love as I was exhaling. 


A mental workout is a very healthy thing to do.  When you go to the gym, you exercise your body, so it would make sense that performing a mental workout would be just as healthy.  Research has shown the benefits of empowering the mind.  When someone’s mental health is clear and stable, their body seems to follow suit.  Meditation has been a great way for me to have my mental workouts.  Even practicing deep breathing to push negative thoughts out of the brain is beneficial.  Anything that helps to clear the mind will help keep the body healthy.
