Wow, I cannot believe we have just only 2 weeks left of this course! This term has really flew by, probably because I've really enjoyed it and its interesting! Usually when things aren't interesting for me and I think a class is pretty boring, the term seems to never end...it defiantly drags. I have loved every piece of information this Health and Wellness Class had to offer thus far, I've appreciated all the new knowledge I have gained to help others in the Wellness field as a professional. I have kept an open mind through all of this, as I have my own beliefs of what calms me as everyone else does, it was nice to hear of new approaches.
The mental calm exercises we have went over in discussions, blogs and personally have been visualization, loving-kindness, subtle mind and meditation. Through meditation focusing on someone who you love and admire focusing on your love for them is the loving-kindness exercise, the love you feel is suppose to make you feel calm and at peace. Through meditation the subtle mind is to relax your mind from all mental chatter and activity by focusing on one specific thing, such as your breathing-eventually your mind goes completely blank and you mere into a deep calmness. Last through meditation visualization is the concluding mental practice of visualizing a place, person or thing that makes you feel calm by just focusing on that one thing. Personally, my favorite that I have practiced is the subtle mind exercise, out of all the exercises, I felt the most relaxed from just focusing on only my breathing. I feel that this specific technique will defiantly be an exercise that I will address to my clients for relaxation, as anyone would try it.
Hope all who again decide to read my blog this week, have a wonderful day/week-hope its a calm peaceful week for you all~
