The two practices that I feel was most beneficial to me where the visualization and the meditation.
Visualization Process For Me
When it comes to applying "mental fitness" in my personal life when dealing with the visualization practices.
First, example You have to feel comfortable to be able to want to do do visualization exercises. This is not for everyone.
Second,, Example, you have to clear your mind of some of the negative thoughts that are running thru. That can block any postive energy that might be wanting to come out.
Third, Example, Once you are in this visualization process you will feel so much better in the end. Your mind will thank you.
Meditation Process For Me
When it comes to applying "mental fitness" in my personal life when dealing with the Meditation practices.
The first example, when it comes to meditation you have to be able to be still and put your self in another place. At time it is hard for me to do that. I always felt like I had to be doing something. I guess that why I love writing poetry and creative writing. Keeping still was something that I had to learn. I am still learning.
The second example, I have stated numerous times that meditation is not for everyone. You have to be patient. I am learning the different techniques from this class has helped me to be able to get better with my meditation exercises. And it has helped me with my strength with my religious creator.
The meditation and visualization practices have similar techniques but the final outcome is to be able to connect your mind, spirit, and body together. If you are able to do that then you are on the right track. I feel that I am at the beginning stages of being on this track. I have learned a lot from Professor Dorette, and my fellow classmates and I thank you both.
Your meditating process sounds fulfilling it inspires me to do the same. Like your blog I tried your process and experienced that it work well for me. It gave me take sense of being grounded.
