Loving Kindness and Integral Assessment

I do practice the Loving Kindness exercises everyday through prayer by giving thanks for the many blessings that I have, not only in my life but in the lives of friends, family and those individuals I work with. I have found that a person cannot be helped from being touched by even a stranger. When you go out you see many different situations like a mother struggling with her children, or a car accident and you may send up a silent prayer to give the mother patience and hope for the person or family that the individual in the accident will be okay. This is sending out good feelings through Loving Kindness.

As health and wellness professionals we try to practice and pass on the knowledge we gain to not only to ourselves but to those our life touches. By doing this we are able to open our mind and heart to the endless possibilities of healing. When I open my mind and heart to helping and sharing with others and myself my life becomes brighter the days are no longer there to dread but to look forward to and enjoy.

    I was touched by your post. I have always had an open mind - and I think that is important. Your post struck me about the importance of an open heart. I guess the time was right for me to "hear" it. Thank you so much.

  2. Melody,

    I thought your post was very loving. It brought to me insight on how I need to be in the lives of my family. I do pray for my kids but only for protection. I need to pray for more in the lives of others. I hope as I learn more on mind-body-spiritual healing I can bring my knowledge to everyone I come across. Thanks for sharing it has truly help me.
