Unit 4 Blog Exercises

Unit 4-Loving Kindness
1. My experience with the CD exercise was pretty much the same of the others. I just don't think that they work for me. I am better reading the word and praying for people that breathing them in and out. When I reflect, I like to have a clear mind and that makes it easier for me to clear away thoughts. I definitly recommend that everyone try it to see what works best for them.
2. The concept of a mental workout is a daily way to experience psychological flourishing.The key to success is to stick with the workout. This is the key to strenghthening consciousness and creating a caring heart. Peace and tranquility along with wisdom are proven results from this exercise. Long and short term mind altering transition expansion creates good health and wellbeing. This includes being able to change negative emotions to positive ones, and by enhancing mental functions (Dacher, 2006). I would implement these exercises to clear my mind for better communication and concentration skills.

As for the exercise on the blog section of our course page, I am going to have to try this when no one is around (ha, ha). I am going to have to make time for this exercise. My son is running in and out, and it sounds to me like the guy is tripping. I don't want to be ignorant to these techniques and I need to research more about these topics.
P.S. Trivia of the day. The t.v. series House. Where is the hospital located?

Just the Begining

Hi Friends,
I only learned about blogs in my Microsoft Outlook class. I don't read many of them, because for school I stick with scholarly articles. I hope this works, and it should be a fun learning experience for those of us who are new users.
Talk To You Soon,
