My experience with this exercise was quite pleasant and much more relaxing although I did restart the track once. This exercise was not as emotional as the loving-kindness exercise was for me. I didn’t have as many thought and images as I thought that I would have since I did my exercise at the very end of my night; I guess my mind decided to cooperate in hopes of soon going to sleep. The sounds of the ocean helped me to have stillness in my mind. Earlier in the day I read in the book that cal abiding is like see the stillness of the ocean even though the waves are moving. I thought how deep it that! The benefits were that I did not have to focus on anything at all. I had no frustrations. Being able to train our minds with contemplative practices and attending to our inner experiences we commence to transforming ordinary mental and physical health into mental and physical wellness.
