When going the different breathing techniques during the
subtle exercise I continuously was being distracted by my mental thoughts
consisting of negative things that has happen to me over the past week but
countered those thoughts with positive one in order for me to concentrate on my
breathing. When relaxed and focusing on just my breathing found myself able to
listen to every heat beat my heat was making with the visualization of me being
somewhere peaceful due to the wave’s sounds whooshing through my headphones as
I was listening to the exercise. I found this exercise more beneficial towards
my needs of relaxation then the loving kindness exercise I completed last week.
The two things that both exercises had in common was that you had to
concentrate on settling your mind in order to progress to the next stage and to
focus on the thoughts that you were having to define how your mental states
reacts in such conditions when doing so. The subtle
exercise was more based on acknowledging your thoughts and enabling yourself to channel your mental focus towards your breathing without letting yourself get too distracted on the thoughts that were happening. The loving kindness exercise was somewhat similar but instead of focusing on your breathing was more on the verge of focusing on your emotional thoughts one pass or current events which I didn’t like. The benefits that came from completing this exercise was to be able to witness my thoughts but without letting myself grasp more into the situation but to acknowledge them and bring my focus back on what was important which was my breathing. Another benefit was to be able to let my mind and body act freely when relaxing instead of trying to constrict them to act a certain way. The connection between spiritual wellness to mental and physical wellness in my life is somewhat balance each wellness plays a different role in my everyday of living. I believe my mental and physical wellness carries me more through life then spiritual due to me working out 4-5 times a week and sticking to a strict diet regiment which takes a strong mental and physical state to do so on a consistent level. I have been thinking about trying out some of the yoga classes at my gym to touch my spiritual aspect more often believe this can help brighten up my day more often when feeling down or not that inspired to do anything for that particular day.
