I tried first time loving kindness practice. I think it is very
beneficial. It was hard for me to do 15 minutes because I had lot of thoughts
in my mind. Resting comfortably in your natural state of peace and ease, bring
to mind an individual, someone close to you, who you hold with great love and
tenderness. Allow these loving feelings to expand within your heart as if a
faucet of loving kindness were being turned on. I really enjoyed these feelings
and I would recommend this to my friends and family. I would love to do this
practice at least twice a week. For me, Practicing loving kindness does not
mean feeling love at the exclusion of any other emotions. Rather, it means
calling upon loving kindness to enrobe all or the emotions inhabiting us in the
present moment. Our emotions are shaped by our thoughts. If we retrain
ourselves to substitute lovingly kind thoughts for our usual messages of
self-hatred, over time, it is to be expected that our overall well-being will
increase.
The concept of Mental
Workout is trying hard to achieve total relaxation and relief of stress. It is
requires lesser concentration as mediation to achieve its full effects. I do
“bootcamp” classes in the morning; I considered that class as a mental workout.
It’s really intense workout with relief your stress. I love doing it because it
makes me feel good about myself. I became stronger by doing this workout. In
mental workout, you begin with yourself. Breathe gently, and recite inwardly
the following traditional phrases directed toward our own well being. You being
with yourself, you trying hard to achieve your own goal. For this intense
workout, you have to love yourself because without loving yourself it is almost
impossible to love others.
