Gone for Six Weeks...

I'm not on vacation, but I won't be blogging anything here for about six weeks.

Wednesday, 08 October 2008

I skipped Lodge last night. I had made up my mind to go, but I burned out so bad doing PT that I fell asleep as soon as I got home from work.

Relaxation Response, Fourth Quarter 2008

15 minutes, with mantra "IAO"

Followed by reading three chapters from the Holy Bible (from Aramaic); five chapters on Sunday

Autogenic Training, 4th Quarter 2008

Autogenic Leg Relaxation

My right arm is very heavy. (x10)
My left arm is very heavy. (x10)
Both my arms are heavy as lead. (x10)

Everything is normal. (x3)

Drop one repetition of each of the first three sentences at the end of each week, until the the first two sentences have no repetitions and the third sentence has only one.

Little to report...

I didn't have a chance to visit Unity Village while on TDY like I'd hoped... I was pretty busy (most of my free time was spent visiting my friends). There won't be any church for me this Sunday; I'll be at drill. Next week I have it clearly marked on my calendar to visit the early service of the Episcopal Church (if I really don't like it, I'll have plenty of time to go the Unity service later...).

A Slow Week

There hasn't been very much to report, spiritually speaking, this week. I had intended to visit the local Episcopal church on Sunday to observe their services... but my parents visited, and I changed my schedule. At the risk of sounding ambivalent (well, I am) I suppose that I may simply have to resign myself to belonging to liberal church. There are many other things about Unity that I do appreciate, after all.
As it turns out, my job will have me in Kansas City for most of the month of September. The "headquarters" of Unity Christian Church--Unity Village--is just outside of Kansas City; perhaps I'll have the opportunity to blog about a visit there.
