Unit 6 Post

Honestly,

As I was completing the "Loving Kindness" exercise, I felt that as I was extending my thoughts toward others, I was healing my own self into reaching the deeper part of myself.  As I was repeating freedom for all, I felt the freedom itself shower upon me. This experience truly proves me that life is like a "Boomerang", you get back what you have thrown.

From the "Integral Assessment", I have chosen that my "Interpersonal life" needs further development.  I have always been a sensitive person who loves to help out others in all capacities within my power, but I have a burden which sometimes cut the bridge along the way if I get negative feedback.  I must learn to embrace all wrong doings, ungratefulness, and engulf them in my ocean of loving-kindness, and witness my expansion of the interpersonal aspect of my life.

unit 5 Q #2

There is direct link between spiritual wellness to mental and physical wellness.  I want to take a simple example on our daily life.  When you feel at peace with your spirit, maybe from falling in love, if you are a student, you tend to understand the material with a better clarity, and your face glows to a dimension of supernatural power.  We are body, mind, and soul, and the connection between the three is unbreakable.  Should one try to break the link, he should be ready to witness the decline in the quality of life also, because the bound between the three makes the essence of life itself.

When I compare "The Loving-Kindness" and "The Subtle Mind" exercise, I find their similarity in the fact that they get the mind to work out.  While 'The Loving Kindness Exercise" embraces you and the environment, putting you at a level to wipe out all negative forces of hatry both from the environment or for the environment, "The Subtle Mind" kind of having you to focus on your own personal thoughts.  It helps you to classify your thoughts in a pattern, instead of having it wandering without a specific purpose.  I would say in conclusion that "The Loving Kindness" embraces you and your environment, while "The subttle Mind" embraces you and your personal inner self.

UNIT 4 POST

Hello everyone, I would like to say that my experience was great, all the way long, I just felt a transformation in my inner self that only me could fully understand, because I don't really have the words to describe it exactely the way I feel.  It was truly beneficial, and I do recommend it to anyone, because the more we are, the better will be the world. 

The concept of "Mental Work Out" is to have the habit to cultivate the mind, search its unlimited harvest, because everything is there to our service, we just have to search for them and find them. It takes practice, because just the way our body feels when first start exercises, and over time we can do without exercise because it feels so good, so does the mind at the begining, but nothing good comes easy, it demands discipline and perseverance.

UNIT 3 (ANSWERS)

Hello everyone,


On a scale of 1 to 10 , I rate myself an 8 physically, a 7 spiritually, and a 7 psychologically.  I rate myself so because physically, I could have implement more healthy habits to enhance my well-being as well as spiritually, and psychologically.

The goal I want to develop for myself in these areas are the following:

Physically, I would like to implement a schedule with time and duration for a physical exercise in order to keep my body well-being to its optimal. 
Secondly, I would like to be more practical about a chosen spiritual practice on a regular basis and connect myself with my very inner self and find peace and harmony in order to attain the psychological apogee that has always been there.


Lastly, not the least, I would like to start practicing a mind exercise such as meditation, and help shift my mind from a sedentary state to an ever exploring state in order to see what needed to be seen from a different perspective or to better say with a positive attitude.

Finally, after completing the exercise, my feeling was like I just detoxify myself, because I felt a lightness, a well-being that made me feel I could fly on top of the mountain just with the lifting of my soul.  I felt that my body, mind, and soul became one forming a perfect harmony that lead to self-peace.

Hello everyone, once again, I would like to welcome everyone of you, and wish that we all have a profitable and very successful learning experience.  I also want to tell you that nothing good comes easily, so use your wisdom to have patience and endurance and enjoy the course.

After listening to the "Journey" I felt such a freedom within myself that made both my soul and body feel so light that I felt that I could reach the sky with a strong confidence.  In the journey, I felt a total controle over my body, my thoughts, and my spirit.  This experience made me realize that we have an unlimited power over ourselves, both body and mind, but we just have to learn to explore this capacity and discover the mystery of our existence.
