This class came at a perfect time
for me with all that is going on in my just
get through today life that I have been living for the past couple of
months. I think my two favorites, at this point, are Guided Meditation and
Loving Kindness. At this point for me, to just sit and be still and meditate is
such an overwhelming challenge that it just stresses me out more. I am very
easily distracted right now but with the guided images etc. I find myself calmly and completely following
along and focusing on only that which I am hearing during the guidance. I am
able to block out all that is going on around me and I find myself feeling like
I just had a brand new battery put in and I am off and running, feeling good
and not stressed out. The Loving Kindness keeps me in check with those around
me. After all, I am by far, not the only one that has a lot going on right now
and by practicing loving kindness, I not only help myself but I am able to
reach out to those around me and offer them a bit of what I have learned in
this class and hopefully they will in turn do the same for someone else they
encounter. The most positive pay it forward action I can think of.
Hello Nanci,
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel regarding this class coming at an appropriate time of coincidences. Having the ability to sit still, take deep breathes, witness images and thoughts while dissecting feelings, emotions and the mechanics of the mind are developmental gifts and tools we need to evolve and prosper in this crazy busy world. My favorite part is stopping the running mind in its tracks to just sit still and feel peace, awareness of others, communion and deeper meanings of consciousness that don’t exist in the physical plane. Having a recharged battery is indeed a great feeling! Dealing with less stress is indeed another blessing and award of training the mind to stop, listen and hear another part of our existence. Universal consciousness is a vast ocean of connected beings communicating and sharing experiences, knowledge, loving-kindness and energy.
