Unit 8


Review the exercises and practice sessions you have completed in this course. (Loving Kindness, Subtle mind, Visualization, meditation etc.) Choose two practices that you have determined to be most beneficial. How can you implement these practices in your personal life to foster “mental fitness”? Provide specific examples.

 Hello everyone,
Loving kindness and Subtle mind of the to exercise and practices sessions that have been most beneficial. The loving-kindness exercise reminds me to remain positive no matter what the situation is. I've only done it twice but I remember those two times that I did go back and allow myself to release unwanted energy and fill with wanted energy there was a situation that I seem clearer in the outcome I think became better. The subtle mind practice I have not quite got and I think it is the second step which helps us to achieve is still mine so we can get to the final step of a pure awareness. I try to accomplish this doing my yoga classes; although I am the instructor I do truly concentrate in place myself as Mideast state from beginning and I become more relaxed into by the end of the class which I think is the, calm-abiding but the stillness of the mind I do not accomplish and I'm not certain it is because I him the instructor and I cannot hold lead give in or I am a control freak.

Implementing these practices in my personal life I could benefit from but it's good to take some time to capture its essence in its entirety. In my professional life if I can connect with my patients or students as far as exercise his concern in this manner and to teach them to connect with self I think it will benefit their stress that they feel to lose weight immediately and allow the magic to work in this progression.

  1. Hi Janice,

    I also chose the loving kindness exercise as one of my favorite and most beneficial exercises from this course. I definitely feel like it is something that I can apply everyday like you said to any situation. It helps me be able to step back from situations, especially bad ones, and think about my emotions and turn them into positive ones...I guess that's even kind of like the witnessing mind too. The subtle mind was definitely one that was hard for me to grasp as well...I'm still trying to "still my mind" and it's proving harder than I thought it would be!
