Practice and Share Positive Energy

I found the Loving Kindness meditation quite outreaching and worldly; offering prayers to the world for health, happiness and wholeness. All the world is suffering, so conscious efforts by all is needed to propagate good harmonious energy and positive vibrations throughout our communities. Not only are you meditating for health and less suffering but are enlisting the mind to figure out how you can remedy the situation. These focus points got my mind rolling on how I can participate in the solution by volunteering my time and efforts to support a world less strife by suffering. I discovered that I can be a willing contributor to the outcomes of worldly events. Relations and worldly connections are my focus of effort. I have found relationship to be quite taxing on my mind, so in the past I tended to ignore people to avoid getting drawn into unpleasant situations. Today, I see people in a better light and seek the challenge of relationships. I truly see the values of the practice and lessons to learn from outside connections. Patience, community, generosity, and practicing loving-kindness are the benefits of such an adventure. Looking past the nagging personality or nasty demeanor will let us “see” the suffering of another valuable person to offer compassion and in turn soothe our own angers. Repeating these meditation exercises periodically, listening to calming music, getting out in nature and really feeling the gifts that nature offers and sharing that experience with others, listening to my spirit, and being mindful of my emotions at all times are my ways of fostering greater wellness.
