Hello everyone,
In the loving kindness exercise I noted the meditation
focused on an external view. Similar to
envisioning the current state we are in as well as the current state others are
in and focusing your energy to help those around you as well as yourself. The integral assessment focused on an
internal evaluation of oneself finding the aspect of one’s life which requires
immediate attention, then, maintenance of that area then finding the next which
requires additional attention. I learned
in both exercises that I do not focus enough attention spiritually on those
around me and within myself. Only
recently have I focused spiritual attention on those around me and myself. However, since doing so, I have noticed a
positive difference in both others and my condition. I have decided to focus more on loving
kindness meditation utilizing psychospiritual energy to reinforce other aspects
of my life. I honestly can’t say why I
chose this other than the fact that it makes sense to me as this area of my
life feels out of sync with the rest of me.
Thank you for reading and I look forward to your posts. Cheers!
Aaron
Hi Aaron,
ReplyDeleteIts good to hear that the exercises are having a positive effect on you. I know I found that the loving kindness meditation was also made a difference for me. You don't realize that the spiritual aspect of your life is lacking until you begin to focus on this area, then you realize all the positive that it brings to you. I find that the more I focus this loving kindness towards others the more positive energy in my own life I find.
Have a great week,
Anne Marie
Aaron,
ReplyDeleteLike you, I do not alway focus on enough of me, but I feel like I focus a lot on others. The only problem for me lately has been that the focus on others has been negative because of the issues going on. It's hard to be positive all the time, but by continuing to focus on exercises like loving kindness and medition I know I can turn it around. These along with focusing on my health are the top priorities.
I have noticed a change in my approach with others when completing the exercises. I believe that if you continue to use the exercises it will help you with your goals.
