- Relaxation
Relaxation can be a major tool in self-healing. To
help you relax try the following:
Sit
quietly - keeping away from any distractions.
Being
comfortable - Choose a comfortable chair or place to sit or lie.
Remove
your glasses - If you wear glasses or contact lenses, you may find it more comfortable to
remove them.
Remove
your shoes - Take off your shoes or any other clothing that may stop you from
relaxing. Loosen buttons or zips.
Close
your eyes - It may help to close your eyes to cut out any sensory distractions.
Grounding - If you
are sitting on a chair, keep your feet on the ground. If your feet don’t
quite reach, put something under your feet so that you make firm contact
with the floor.
Sitting
Posture - If you are
sitting, sit upright, allowing the Energies to flow naturally (this connects
earth and heaven). If necessary, use a pillow to support the small of the
back.
Lying
Posture - If you are lying, keep your body in a straight line, allowing the Energies
to flow naturally (connects earth and heaven).
Relax
your hands - Relax your hands and place them comfortably on your lap or in a position
of your own choosing.
Mental
Relaxation - Deep physical relaxation leads onto mental relaxation.
Deep
Breathing - Take three or
four deep breaths, drawing the air from deep within your stomach. Visualise
it coming from the solar plexus (below the rib cage), through the lungs and
throat and going into the head. Then, slowly let the breath out.
Once
in a relaxed state, let go of all your stresses and worries.
Silence is Golden
