Breathing in Loving Kindness and the Subtle Mind

The Breath of Life can give peace over the body and the soul.  Taking a few minutes each day to listen to our own Breath of Life that sustains our body will create a peace and wellness within the body, soul, and the mind.

Loving Kindness exercise can help others as well as yourself.  Breathing in the suffering of others and breathing out the peace directed towards them may help the overall wellness of each person.

Subtle mind exercise is more towards you the person.  Listening to your breath as you breath in life.  The breath of life is peace and wellness of the soul.  So each breath one takes is the breath of peace to the soul.

Spiritual wellness can be obtained by taking a few minutes out each day to listen to your own Breath of Life.  Physical wellness is obtained by just relaxing the mind and letting each breath take away the worries of the day. 

Take a few minutes each day and try to sit outside, breath in the air, breath in the wind, quite the mind, quite the body and the wind will give you the Breath of Life.

Reflections of Meeting Ascelpius

The Greeks Called Asclepius the wise healer who resides within each of us.  Preparing The Ground one recalls a wise person and feel their presence.  Taking time to reflect on this person was one that was very painful for me.  My father was that wise person.  Ever quite but had the wisdom, happiness, love, that was shown to me.  His wisdom taught me to be who I am and as I reflected on him tears of pain from his leaving me on this earth overflowed my heart and mind.  My father the wise healer is the person that the book, Integral Health, The Path to Human Flourishing on page 57, has one do to meet Ascelpius. 

The heart of this wise person, my fathe bathed me in kindness, love, and compassion, I could feel him touch me as he dissolved into the bright white light. 

Sometimes meeting Ascelepius can cause tears of pain of loss but bring on the feeling of being together in spirit.
