Unit 8

 

1.       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

       Most of the exercises have been challenging at best, but there are two that have worked especially well for me,
the meditation and subtle mind.

Meditation requires time and persistence, but once I made a commitment to practice daily,  I found amazing results. I have noticed improved stress reduction, peace of mind, greater confidence and increased energy. It doesn’t take very long but it’s lasting effects help me get through very stressful days and sets the tone.

The subtle mind exercise is helpful to me when I am really stressed out or feeling overwhelmed.  I do this to calm down and think about the ocean waves crashing on the shore. This has helped me tremendously throughout this course and the past few weeks.  I have been faced with so many challenges.  This is an exercise, I will continue to practice once the course ends.
