Unit 5

Hello everyone,
 
Loving kindness exercise I found that I was still aware of my surroundings and in the subtle mind exercise I was willing to subdue my entire self to the listening of the recording.

The loving kind of exercise I allow myself to find inner peace but it was a little difficult settling my mind because I had just finished discussing the situation with my 15-year-old son. It had both positive and negative reactions some I'm mind was definitely chattering million miles a minute. Once I was able to eliminate my running mind which was not coldly the water in this exercise some words kept me in tune with my situation some but I begin to gather my thoughts because I so wanted to relax and hope to see a different side once I was done with the exercise to the situation that I could not see this before. Needless to say it didn't work but I will try it again.

The subtle mind exercise I found myself wanting to relax I even allow my body to drift the store was floating. I wish the voice had changed and also that running water may be birds or wind in the trees leaves with something different. And now I'm speaking of it maybe I did not give them as much as I thought because I was conscious of the sound effects in the background. That just made me realize how difficult the subtle mind relaxation exercise may have been and that I did not achieve the goal I think was set out for me. Until next time.
