The universal Loving Kindness exercise was interesting. At first it was repetitive, just repeating the sentences over and over but then it began to make sense to my head. Then it made sense to my heart. I thought, "wow, what if I could tie these thoughts to my head and my heart all the time!" I am pretty sure I would treat people with more kindness, even those that I consider to be enemies.
The Integral Assessment was difficult to understand at first but as I slowed down and went through it I began to understand it more. In my psychospiritual I realized that my conative level still has a lot of work to move from instinctive and reactive to have meaning and fulfillment. The emotional part of me realizes that my goal is to have stable happiness and not be dictated by fears, anger, or desires.
I think my biological line is more developed. I exercise regularly and am working on becoming more aware of my physical body. I am trying to learn exercises that work on body and mind at the same time.
The Interpersonal area is an area that I am really struggling with. Family is very important to me and they are a big part of my life. I have also learned that I forgot about self or really didn't know self so I was not balanced and not teaching my children how to be balanced.
My Worldly Flourishing area is growing and I am involved with the community in different areas. I hope to become involved in the global cause of human trafficking when I have become more balanced. I also want to pass on to others what I am learning about balance and interpersonal health. Christina
