Week 4 Loving Kindness Exercise


Week 4 Loving Kindness Exercise

        I found this exercise to be beneficial. It’s always good to take some time off and relax. The sound of the waves splashing made it quite easy for me to relax. Also, it’s a lot easier to focus on these pleasant thoughts and breathing techniques when you’re in the comfort of your own home with no adversary and a lot more difficult when you’re away from home and all of your irritating buttons are being pushed. Practicing walking in love is something I do daily, so this loving kindness exercise was not difficult at all. However, it was kind of challenging to take in the sufferings of my loved ones. I did not like that part of the exercise.  Overall I would still recommend it to others. I just might leave out the part about the suffering love ones.

        The concept of mental workout is a workout for your brain. The same way we go about exercising to build up and strengthen our bodies we have to do the same for our minds. Equally as important as focusing on actual mind exercises I think eating brain foods or supplements play a vital role in giving our minds what’s needed to experience healthier brain function, sharper minds and clearer thinking.
