Aesclepius mp3/One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself


This exercise was very relaxing. I was actually able to meditate. At first I didn’t know what to expect out of the exercise. I didn’t know if I was going to like the exercise or not. This was just a great exercise. It made you as if you were the person you were thinking of. Overall though it kind of made me feel more connected to the person, which I’m sure others felt the same thing whether the person they were thinking of was alive or not. Meditation really relaxes me and trust me I need that, because I be so wound up. If I want to continue this though I am going to have to start making more time for myself where I can do more exercises like the ones that we have been doing in this class.

The saying one cannot lead another where one has not gone himself basically says to me how can you help someone get to a certain place in life if you are not even helping yourself get to that place. When it comes to the health and wellness professional, this basically says that you cannot tell your patient that they need to do this and that and don’t do this and that but you are not going by your own words. How can a doctor tell one not to smoke because of all the bad effects but the doctors themselves smokes? No one wants a doctor like this, everyone wants a doctor that will lead by example. Show me that you are doing this and that and that what you are doing is helping you with your health.
