unit 4
This exercise is one that required more time than previous exercises. It is a good exercise and one that really brings a focus to yourself. It brought back some interesting moments in my life, some great and some maybe not so great. It even engaged some memories I had not recalled in a long time. These kind of exercises can be difficult depending on your mind set and the current list of events that seem to be occuping our thought space. It has been an interesting week in that school work actually helped me get through the week. I know it sounds pathetic but this unit required a lot of thought and it kept my mind of the terribly nagging toothe that finally got fixed today. Yeehaw it fels better and yet worse due to the swelling and bruising from the procedure but they assured me that I would be fine in a couple of days. So thank you class for keeping me occupied in blogs and discussion and also the wonderful exercises we had to do. Hope all are well and we shall see you all in seminar tomorrow night.

Hi Dave,
ReplyDeleteI know it's sometimes hard to concentrate with so many things going on in our lives. I really do recommend this one. Concentrating on our breathing and letting everything else go really helps relieve tension and stress. When all those thoughts come flooding in, think about them for a moment, and then slowly push them away and concentrate only on your breathing (or the rise and fall of your chest-whatever works for you). Keep trying, and once you are able to calm your mind it's like a weight has been lifted. :) Good luck, and keep trying!
