Of all the exercises we have covered in this class the Subtle Mind and Meeting Aesclepius were my two favorite. The ones in the book that we had to read and then repeat were difficult because I kept forgetting the words or phrases...not my thing. Since going over these listening meditation exercises I have downloaded a couple of apps from Itunes on meditation so when I do have 15 minutes (usually not at home) I can take that break and calm my mind. I really love these listening type of meditation sessions. I did try to listen to one while I was running...that did not work, it was not motivating in the right way. I hope in my Master's classes for nursing I encounter more of these type of classes. I would highly recommend integral health for any nursing student.

Hello, I did not care for those exercises that we had to do in the book, but what I found useful is to record myself reading the phrases that we had to repeat and then listening to them when I needed to. Meditation is a great way to relax and feel motivated. I also have a few apps on my Ipod for me to meditate with. Now I only wish my husband would meditate with me, he is very stressed with work and the Army!

Subtle Mind was a good exercise that helped quite a bit. It was, out of all the exercises, my favorite of the ones that we did out of the "named exercises". I still found some of those exercises a bit more difficult than a standard meditative practice only because of the voices and odd sound effects they utilized that to me didn't fit with what I was attempting to visualize.
