Meeting Asciepius

I remember doing this exercise earlier this term, and when I did it again I felt the same warmth, wisdom, and serenity as the first time I did it. I envisioned my mother. My mother is a woman who always has had this calmness and gentleness to her, ever since I can remember. Never would I envisioned that I could her feel her energy in such a way, it was neat but still weird in a way. Weird in the sense that I never actually felt something like that prior to this exercise. Practicing meditation and mindfulness has opened my mind more than I thought it was. I see things in a different light, though there are times where I still go back or negative thoughts come in, but overall I know I have made progress. This is my journey and I will go at the pace I set out for myself. As I have mentioned in our discussions I will continue to put in an effort into incorporating these things into my daily routines. At the moment it is still rough around edges, but I see a better outcome soon. 


"One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself”. Simply means that one cannot expect another to do something without the proper guidance from the person giving the instructions aka us. This applies to all professionals especially in the health care field because people don't only want to know what is best for them, but they want to see the living proof an living example of what your preaching for a patient to actually put it into a routine for themselves. My growth is becoming aware of triggers that stress me or make me angry, being able to relax more on Que and work on becoming more in tune with myself.
