First off I want to apologize to all those who have been keeping up with my blogs and possibly silently seeking my guidance and I was no where to be found. I guess I've just recently been caught up in my recent life's adversities of switching jobs, and trying to foster that with my co-workers/(second family) in the nicest possible way so as to not have any hard feelings or even feelings of jealousy. Secondly, as I've said in previous blogs, I feel I owe it to my family first and foremost to help them even acknowledge this possible concept of integral health. With that being said, my significant other is quite indirectly very demanding of my presence and attention; so, I've read many of your posts, although haven't been able to fully respond in the best ways possible. I'm making a heartfelt honest effort in these last two weeks to make up for my somewhat subjective absence over the course of this term. Just thought you all should know, that I honestly, really do care.
Back to school work...
I think the two practices that have been most beneficial for me are the Subtle Mind Practice and this last visualization practice we did on pages 144-146 in our Integral Health book. I feel as though I really already have this massive loving-kindness for humanity itself and my main issue is really my anger and acting on impulse, therefore I feel the Subtle Mind Practice really keeps me focused on intention and helps remind me of who and what I really am inside that I need to exert on the outside as well.
This last visualization exercise reminds me of my final aim and motivates me to show the world that true happiness does exist even in what seems to be an endless hope of life in a cruel world of dishonestly, hate and despair. I just want to help...
Hi Steph, I can see you have a whole lot of thought and loving kindness is part of you and a person who cares and wants to give. It is also essential that you too are on the reciving end. I think that the most important thing is to create a cycle of lovekindness. When things get tough go into yourself and find the still waters and become part of that flow. I hope your journey is well and full.
