Loving Kindness Exercise
It is funny that I did this exercise when I was actually angry and having a bad day and the book says it can be helpful when dealing with anger or hatred. After completing the exercise I can understand how training the mind to think positive things and speaking positive things can alter you emotional state. I tend to say at least one prayer when I go into work that I am a blessing to whomever I touch or come in contact with before I start my job but I guess it would be best to say this prayer before I even get out of bed. Daily stressors and problems can build up and if not addressed quickly can lead to negativity and other problems. I will continue to say and think these words for the rest of the night to help me get through my situation and help the people around me.

Hi Maisha,
ReplyDeleteI agreew with you in that training your brain to think positively can benefit not just you but everyone that you come in contact with. If your never learn to deal with stressors your body will soon start taking toll. This semester have been very busy for my and I am finding these tools very helpfull when I get myself stressed.
