Good Evening Health & Wellness Bloggers,
After reading what the universal Loving Kindness
(meditation) exercises was, it was easy to complete. I believe that those who have a gift for
caring and are receptive to the needs of others feel, believe and repeat those
positive messages of healing without wavering and faith that individuals in this world rather you know them personally or not will gain freedom from illness, disease and harm. I don't know who said this but I think it is true that "The heart of the matters are the matters of the heart" (author unknown) I for one, have a heart that wants others to not suffer.
As I stated before, I believe in the power of prayer and
often times when I enter into my grandmother’s nursing home, go into a
hospital, view a sick and shut in list, see someone walking alone or see a
person with a distraught face, I send a prayer of healing and wholeness. What I have discovered about my self is that
I am a little over sensitive in that I want to take away the pain of others at
times so much so that I began to feel ill or sadness. I have to realize that everyone has a cross
to bear and that my strength is what they can lean on and a positive assisting
attitude. Being sad and bringing sadness
to their situation will not help them and may make it worse.
What I need to focus on more in my life is my biological
life. Being raised by a single (very tough disciplinary) yet hard working
mother I learned independence early but was missing the nurturing part of the
mother-daughter relationship as well as a father-daughter relationship
period! I began to eat an excessive
amount of food to cure what ailed my heart but it only made my body toxic. When I am sad, depressed or lonely eating
became my run to. Even after losing 106
pounds, that issue with self-esteem and body image rears its ugly head and I
have to fight hard not to find the nearest honey bun. I recognize the sources of pain vs. food and
now am trying to practice healing eating habits and use exercise and fast
walking as my go to source when negative feeling occur. Releasing those negative feelings into the fresh air and out of my body.
Respectfully,
Desiree Stroder
This is the best blog that I have read yet sense we been doing this assignment, and I also see that you are really a caring person and you’re really going to be blessed for the heart that you have for people in general. I’m not just talking because if you the type of person that make people illnesses your own and you become ill yourself then you definitely as an angel that must of fell from heaven, because everybody don’t show that type of compassion for others anymore. You is also correct about one more other thing everybody have their own cross to bear. Good Blog!
