The Six Exercises of Rudolf Steiner

THE SIX EXERCISES of Rudolf Steiner
elaborated by Tom van Gelder
Here is a brief encapsulation of the 6 basic exercises that originate from Rudolf Steiner paraphrased by Michaela Glockler. These exercises are meant to provide a means of tuning our moral compass centered in the human heart which is of indispensable importance as health-sustaining guidance for anyone who chooses to embark upon a path of inner development. Ideally our social interactions could be informed by the human capacities and virtues that can be cultivated with the help of these exercises.
(1) Controlling our thoughts on the basis of truth.
(2) Becoming conscious of our will impulses.
(3) Controlling our feeling life that always has personal nuances.
(4) Cultivating positivity in dealing with others and with things.
(5) Being open to what life and destiny may bring.
(6) Developing an attitude in life that brings a balance to all these exercises.
