***_Greetings every, I hope that everyone is feeling
blessed to have awaken upon this beautiful day of overall life. I’m happy to
have practiced with these exercises this weekend. I believe that these
exercises help mentally bring us back to a fresh page upon our book of life, thus
we as human beings need to make these exercises a way of life rather than just
a practice. Not only would I recommend these exercises to others, but I have
recommended these exercises to one of my friends who really need it due to
unmanaged and unbalanced stress upon her life. Now when it comes to mental
workout, our brain is a muscle which requires not only rest and relaxation, but
the progressive development of an expanded consciousness. According to Dacher,
“The most meaningful aim of contemplative practice is not rest and relaxation
but rather the progressive development of an expanded consciousness and its
healing capacities”(pg.65, 2006). The best way that I could implement mental
workouts to foster my psychological health is for me to create/schedule time
(just like I would for work at my job) a few times throughout the week.

That is great that you were able to pass this meditation exercise on to a friend in need. I hope it was able to help her manage her stress levels. I agree with you that a certain times need to be dedicated to a mental workout. Hope you have a greet week!
