2 Exercises

The two practices that I found to be the most beneficial were the Subtle Mind exercise and the Loving Kindness exercise. I enjoyed these two because I found them to be easy to do and got positive results from them. I can implement these practices in my personal life by practicing them on a regular basis. For example, if there comes a time where I am overstressed, I can practice the Subtle Mind exercise to clear my head and relax my mind and body. Also, if there is a time where I am having a bad day or negative thoughts about something, I can practice the Loving Kindness to turn my mood around and lead a more positive and beneficial life.

These are also practices I can do with my clients when I am training in order to keep them on the right track toward mental fitness as well as physical fitness. I really feel these exercises have benefited me, and I hope to continue doing them in the future to work toward an improved mental fitness.

  1. Jake,
    Each time I read your post, I can see the growth from these exercises becoming a part of your lifestyle. As a personal trainer, like me LMT we have to be careful with our energy flow as healthcare professionals. Both of these contemplative practices I find to be most helpful in rejurvenating and strength my mind, body and spirit in order to help others in achieving their goals as well.

    Best in Health,

  2. Thank you Jake for your response. I think that using these two for your clientele will work great as they would for my clientele as well. Helping to keep everyone focused on their goals is a good point of these exercises and really good for mental fitness.

    Thank you,
