thanks a lot anita;)i have realized meditation helps a lot b/c it helps me recall memories that i have in the back of my mind at times when i need them. such as when i had to find the nth term of a sequence, i experienced a moment of mental clarity and was able to think the formula was a_n= a_1+(n-1)d. the “_” symbol is a subscript. i also remembered about how to find polynomial degrees using a table. also i have become more attuned to my surroundings and it doesn’t matter if people are negative or trying to bring me down, i just ignore them and imagine myself in a warm bubble of light. meditation has also helped me think quicker and i am also on my way of learning how to heal myself, in fact i have had results show especially with my circulation. at times throughout the day, whenever i seem to stray from mental clarity, i remember to remind myself to connect my crown, open my heart and let the divine energy flow into me. we are all made of star stuff and have the ability to heal ourselves mind body and spirit and if we believe and connect to our divine selves from within, we are already halfway there. if we open ourselves up to divine love and healing and truly believe in our potential instead of spending our energy fighting life, if we accept and trust the path of life and just look around to the beauty around us, we would truly realize life as effortless and as a miracle. i truly am grateful to all of my friends for also helping me. i feel like they truly have helped me see the divine in the world and myself.
