Loving-Kindness and The Benefits

I want to talk about loving kindness today.  What does loving kindness mean to you?  Loving kindness to me means to do something for someone that has no ability to pay you back.  Loving kindness is displaying feeling of love to someone and not we ourselves.  In today's erra we do not show loving-kindness as much as our ancestors did.  We mostly are in a survival mode and only think about ourselves but we can change our thinking by incorporating sharing, caring for others, and thinking of other ways to help those that can not repay you for the service rendered.  Loving-kindness is a skill that all of us have to share with other people.  We sometimes just need others to point it out to us.

There is a book that I would like to introduce to you. Integral Health, The path to human Flourishing.  This book changed my thinking regarding stress and how it applies to our health, psychological, and spiritual aspects of our being.  The audio CD that accomplice the book really explains the philosophy of the east and how it can help you stay healthy during your stressful day. The CD is wonderful with the sea roaring in the background and the narrator talking the troubles away.  It is really relaxing to the body and rejuvenates the mind for a brand new day the lies ahead. 

There is section of the book that talks about "mental workouts".  Everybody has a change mechanism within their own heart.  Mental workouts just means to take old habits and convert them to new ones by retaining the mind to think about others first before yourselves.  Yall, I am a visual learner and kinetic leaner and I have to see it before I can understand what the author is saying.  I hope and pray that most of you would take this loving-kindness and practice it throughout your day.  It may take a little time for some but it is a mile stone for others but take it one day at a time and you will see the difference. Take care and be in good health.

My Goals for the Season

Have you ever asked yourself could my health get better? or how can I improve my life?  I am guilty of asking myself these questions over and over daily.  Most consumers believe that if something is wrong with me then there must be a pill or tonic to cure it.  In some cases there may not be such a quick cure to our problems.  I took those questions and with the help of my instructor, I being to think about rating my current status both physically, mentally, and most important spiritually.  I want you as the audience to do the same too.  By sitting in a quite room and with a honest opinion look at your current status and rate it from 1 to 10 (1=terrible - 10 best).  I rate myself current health status as a 8 because of the common cold, stress of running a company, and family.  These many also be hidden stressors for you also.  I have acknowledged the fact that somethings in my life also needs work just as any human on the face of the eart...

During this weeks assignment, We are giving an inside revelation of our lives to the public regarding our assessment of how we view ourselves as a human being.  In our textbook Integral Health, The Path to Human Flourshing it talks about taking our past experience, our goals, and relationships with other people and make the moments positive instead of negative.   This textbook is a real eye opener to ourselves and the perception that other see in us.  It is essential that we fix our emotions, improve our physical state of health, and our prayer lives in order to direct other to live such a life that promotes a healthy lifestyle.
