The exercises that I seem to have benefited the most from are meeting Aesclepius and the Loving-Kindness.
The Loving –Kindness exercise puts me in the right frame of mind to deal with others who can be difficult or mean while I am at work. The fact that in this exercise you include people that you may not care for yet still send out positive energy, it really puts things into perspective.
Meeting Aesclepius I like to do at night because the person that I use to focus on is a Great Aunt that I was very close to. I love to think about her when she was here she was awesome to sit with and learn from, so it only makes sense when things are bad or some lesson is needed that I learn it from someone that I loved and was good at giving me direction. I like to think of her as my Jiminy Cricket now.
Hello Nena. I really enjoyed the loving-kindness exercise as well. I am now able to peacefully tolerate everyone which has also given me a stronger perspective on life in general. The Meeting Asclepius exercise was very beneficial as well to me. I feel much wiser and peaceful after this exercise. I have enjoyed all of the exercises and have genuinely seen a huge difference in myself. It is such a great feeling to wake up every day, exercise my inner-self, and take on my day stress free. I would recommend all of these exercises to my clientele as I have seen from personal experience that they work. I wish you all the best of luck in your journey.

Hi Nena, I'm glad that the Loving-kindness exercise helps you many different ways. This was one of the exercises that I chose due too the peace that it has given me. In the last few weeks I have been setting aside 20 min to participate in the loving-kindness exercise, must say I have seen a difference as well as others. Keep up the good work.

Great post:-)
Hello Nena,
ReplyDeleteWere you able to witness the effect of loving – kindness on the people you energized. Is your work place becoming less of a stressful ordeal? Do you feel loving- kindness coming your way? It’s nice of you to help those in your work place.
Meeting Aseclepius is a good practice; we can always use a guide to help us long our way. Using it in my practice will be interesting, it will be a different approach for some of the people I’m around there is a fear factor towards the unexplored for some. I like using this practice as much as I can mainly to check in and revitalize. Nena, I wish you well in all you do.
