Perhaps I should start, instead of trying to meditate on abstract concepts like “good” and “love” (I’ve always had trouble with abstractions like math and emotion), and instead try to do sitting meditation sessions while slowly feeling and pinching my belly fat etc and thinking about all the health issues that accompany THIS, not just what I HAVE but what I COULD like diabetes and heart attacks, both of which (like predisposition towards depression and similar mental illnesses) run in the family from BOTH SIDES…
Would something like this help?* Or only make me feel worse/guilty/angry instead of its intended purpose of spurring and sparking motivation towards healthier food choices?
- WTCMM? If I can lessen many health issues with being heavy, if I can feel less preoccupied with looking worse (I’m a vain individual :( ), I should have more energies freed up for seeking activities to help generate niramisa sukha instead of being locked up in negativity. At least that’s the conclusion of my ignorance-covered mind.
