Unit 8 - Visualization and Meditation

Hello Class,


I have found the visualization and meditation techniques to be most helpful and the easiest to incorporate into my daily routine. I like to try to give myself 10 to 15 minutes of meditation time everyday, usually in the evening, sort of as a last opportunity to review my day, decide on how i can make tomorrow, and basically just clean my slate so that the following day I can start everything fresh and new. I also find the visualization helpful I am a pretty active individual and it helps dor me to visualize my improvements when it comes to health and fitness. I think about all the positive benefits I will get from advancing physically and eating better and that helps me to make moves in the right direction. I also use visualization techniques when I need to cool down from a stressful event, I try to see a more positive environment and remove myself from the situation until I can deal with it in a constructive manner.

  1. Hello! You know...I try to do my meditation and quiet time in the mornings to start my day off fresh and energized but I love your thought process on doing them in the evening near the end of the day. I think it is great to look back at your day and see how you can have a better tomorrow.

    I too long visualizing the benefits of staying active and eating healthy. Sometimes it is really hard to stay motivated but then I just imagine/remember how much better I feel when I keep at it. That helps me a lot too. Good post!
