After listening to the Loving Kindness exercise I was pleasantly surprised to be a little more relaxed. I had to listen to it three times before I could concentrate and focus. It has been a very stressful week and relaxing even a little has been nearly impossible. I found his voice to be very monotone and almost annoying. He was very hard to listen to. I did enjoy the water sounds in the background though. I have a couple of CDs of nature sounds that I enjoy listening to at night. I had trouble with my mind wandering as I listened to this exercise. I do not think this is one I would listen to on a regular basis.
The more I practice this type of exercise the more it can help strengthen my mind. Exercise for the mind is just as important as physical exercise. Our bodies need to be in shape and our minds need to be sharp. As we get older this becomes harder.
