Visualisation 2

 

You are aware of your body.

You are aware of pressure under your feet, on the back of your legs, your bottom,your back and shoulders, your head and your neck.

You are aware of your breathing, in and out, deeply, slowly and regularly.

As you breathe in, say to yourself, "Feet,
relax....feet, relax" As you breathe out, say the
same.

As you breathe in, say to yourself, "Calves,
relax....calves, relax" As you breathe out, say the
same.

As you breathe in, say to yourself, "Thighs,
relax....thighs relax" As you breathe out, say the
same.

As you breathe in, say to yourself, "Tummy,
relax....tummy relax" As you breathe out, say the
same.

As you breathe in, say to yourself, "Chest,
relax... As you breathe out, say the same.

As you breathe in, "arms, relax....arms relax". As
you breathe out, "arms, relax....arms, relax"

As you breathe in, "Hands, relax...hands, relax". As
you breathe out, "Hands, relax....hands, relax"

As you breathe in, "shoulders,, relax....shoulders, relax". As
you breathe out, "shoulders, relax....shoulders, relax"

As you breathe in, "Neck, relax....neck relax". As
you breathe out, "Neck, relax....neck relax".

Breathe in, " Scalp, relax". Breathe out, " Scalp,
relax".

Breathe in, " Eyes, relax". Breathe out, " Eyes,
relax"

Breathe in, " Mouth, relax". Breathe out, " Mouth,
relax"

Breathe in, " Jaw, relax". Breathe out, " Jaw, relax"

As you breathe in and out, continuing to the same,
gentle rhythm, be aware that you
are breathing in light and energy, warmth and health.

Breathe in light. Breathe out darkness and all the
negative thoughts, pain and doubt, illness and evil...
all the things that are holding you back.

You are breathing in light and happiness, breathing
out darkness and doubt. Try to see the light and feel
the warmth of the sun as you breathe in. See
yourself exhaling the dark, reddish mist of anger,
pain and fear.

Breathe in a light as bright as you can imagine.


Breathe out a dark mist, as dark as you can make it
in your mind's eye. Get rid of it.

Breathe in the crisp brightness of sun on snow.
Breathe out dark, clogging, cold, damp sickness and
pain.


Continue until the outward breath gradually clears,
becoming also light and clean. Picture the healing
light coursing through your body, warming and
healing as it travels from your head down your right
side to your toes and back up your left side to be
exhaled.

This relaxation exercise can be used on its own at
any time you need to refresh and renew yourself, or
to protect yourself in any way from hurt.

Or it can be used as a introduction to any other visualisation. It
can even be used as a way to relax into a deep and
restful sleep.

But if you are not going to sleep, always remember to "ground" yourself after visualisation or relaxation exercises by bringing
yourself back to full awareness of your body and
your surroundings, counting backwards before you
open your eyes, stamping hard, jumping, walking
briskly or taking a wash before driving, using power
tools or doing anything else that needs your full
attention....more
