Ok, so I listened to the Meeting Aesclepius.\ mp3, and I don't really know how I am supposed to feel about it. I sat through the initial narrative, and it reminded me of listening to bible on cassette as a kid; this may not have bothered me (since I have always held to my beliefs) but it was used as punishment so I like to read it myself nowadays, lol. I was listening to him talk when the female narrative started up for the exercise itself; sudden change in tone was a bit startling. The part that bugged me was when I was supposed to visualize someone that was a comfort to me, but I don't have someone like that that I would really visualize as a wise anything; I don't have the ability to visualize comfort.
I have lived most of my life without my parents help (would have been better without them), without comfort; you get used to that, and eventually you forget how it works. I would have an easier time visualizing someone I would easily comfort instead, such as a child or a good friend. For me to comfort is easy, that's what I'm good at; to be comforted to me is a joke, lol, I don't trust many with my emotions. 
I have been using mindful meditation more often, and it is coming easier to me than before. I have gotten to the point where I know I can't always get everything done right now, when before I freaked out when things didn't get done when they should, I couldn't let things go. 
The saying One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself, means that you cannot properly advise another about something you have not truly experienced yourself. This goes double in the health field, as you can't sit there and tell someone to quit smoking and make them feel horrible for ruining their health, if you smoke. I had an osteopathic doctor that lost 20 pounds, just so that he coudn't tell his patients to lose weight with extra baggage on himself. It pretty much means don't be a hypocrite and don't be a know-it-all. I went into the field of psychology to understand my family better, it has been a blessing.
