ANOTHER DEEP RELAXATION TECHNIQUE
Posted on Mar 23, 2009 under Herbal | No CommentYou can deepen your feeling of relaxation like this. Picture yourself standing at the edge of a deep, transparent spring at least a hundred feet deep and surrounded by a beautiful peaceful garden. Toss a shiny new dime into the water and then watch closely from about three feet away as the dime darts, rolls, flashes and twists its way deeper and deeper into the calm unruffled depths. In about a minute, the dime is resting on the clear, sandy bottom in an undisturbed world of utter peace and tranquility. The effects of this mental exercise are almost identical to those you would experience if completely insulated from all external stimuli. To complete your feeling of total relaxation, picture your arms and legs as pieces of old, tired, limp rope. Visualize your body as relaxed as a rag doll. Feel all tightness and tension slip away.
You should now be in a state of total relaxation. Every muscle should feel entirely tension-free. You should be experiencing a peaceful state of consciousness, not thinking of anything in particular.
In fact, you should be experiencing a delicious feeling of detachment from the worries and pressures of everyday living. As you became increasingly relaxed, the mind disassociates from the body and you become unaware that you have a body at all.
