Love-Kindness- the reoccurring theme. This week, the love- kindness exercise required
me to focus and repeat a phrase for 10 minutes (Dacher, 2006) .”
May
all individuals gain freedom from suffering.
May
all individuals find sustained health, happiness, and wholeness.
May
I assist all individuals in gaining freedom from suffering.
May
I assist all individuals in finding health, happiness, and wholeness.
The exercise was designed to “be quite powerful in
expanding my mind and heart (Dacher, 2006) .” However, I did not
quite get there. I tried this exercise repeatedly. In the end, I found it to be
okay, not as great as the others. I think I prefer me exercise with a little
mp3 assistance.
After some deep self -reflecting, I determined that
I need to focus on my mental health. Lately, I have been a wreck from what I perceive
as stress. To work on this issue, I decided to do something that I already love
to help me. I love to read. Therefore, I have decided that I will start on a
book called “Battlefield of The Mind” by Joyce Meyer (Meyer, 2002) . My friend brought
me the book today. I have faith that it will make a difference.

Miranda,
ReplyDeleteI have not read it but I hear that Battlefield of the Mind is a great read. Joyce Meyer has a way with words and I love to hear her speak. I went to one of her conferences a couple of years ago and was blessed beyond belief. She is always coming up with sayings that hit home. I hope you find peace and comfort in the book.
Blessings,
Tennille
