Review the exercises and practice sessions you have completed in this course. (Loving Kindness, Subtle mind, Visualization, meditation etc.) Choose two practices that you have determined to be most beneficial. How can you implement these practices in your personal life to foster “mental fitness”? Provide specific examples.
For me, I think the universal loving kindness exercise was one such exercise that I had been able to focus on feelings because when the mind is relaxed the mediator is able to forgive and forget any offense committed against my anger. It was also very easy to remember, and also because we had to keep repeating the four phrases regarding Dacher textbook. One of the most that I need to practice a lot is the meditation in deep breathing. I need to time my balance to concentration and focus and it really helps my body and mind calm down.
I think the beneficial practices for me are physical exercise and prayer. My experience on physical exercise is improving my moods and I feel better about my appearance and when I exercise regularly, which can boost my confidence and improve my self-esteem. I also have more energy to go about my daily chores. For my prayer it helps me to reduce my ego, like my fear and anxiety, and prayer that give me strengths and powerful. When I pray for those I know and love, it helps me to understand that person a little bit better.
