What do you really, really love?

Hey Everyone!

I had my last World Religions class tonight! I can't believe how fast the time goes. We finished the class with a visualization exercise that I would like to share with you all. It is very simple and only takes about five minutes...I encourage you to try!

Sitting comfortably or lying down face up-begin to focus on your breath. Taking your time inhaling and exhaling completely. Try and see if your exhales last longer than your inhales. This will help relax and center you further. Once you feel more in touch with your body, I want you to focus on this question: What do you really, really love? What types of things, people, places, ideas, or feelings come to mind? Stay with those thoughts a while and see what arises. Again ask yourself...What do I really, really love? Is there anything else you forgot? Be with whatever comes up this time and let that bring a smile to your face. One last time...What do I really, really love? The deeper you let yourself contemplate this question, the more of an impact it will have on you.

I can think of nothing better than taking a time-out to really become what you love. By thinking and really living in the moment of what is special to you, the more of a reality it becomes. I hope you enjoyed this exercise and never take for granted what you love in this life. We all have someone or something to love and the more we remember this, the happier we will be.

Be Well,

Erin
