I practiced the Loving Kindness meditation and discovered it is starting to get easier. Maybe the fact that I finally got my laptop out of the pawn shop and can lock myself in my room away from my loving children helped me with this meditation this week. I find it funny that some of the people that I love the most can make the Loving Kindness exercise difficult for me to complete.
After completing the Integral Assessment I found it difficult to decide which part of my life needs the most help. One area I really need to focus on at this time is in the biological quadrant , nutrition, this is especially important while I am pregnant and because I have diseases that affect my nutrition. In order to improve my nutrition I will make sure I take my vitamins everyday, drink more water and add more fresh fruits and vegetables to my daily diet. In the Interpersonal quadrant I need to work on my connections with my family, I have been quite distant with my husband and children lately and am not sure why, maybe hormonal mood swings. I do not like feeling this way and want to work on improving my relationship with all of them. My plan for making changes in this area is to take time to listen to each one of them everyday, make Sundays our family day again, and eat more meals at the table together. These are the areas that I will start with as I begin to make changes I will add more in the other quadrants of my life.
