So begin.
Begin by finding a spot,
A comfortable spot.
Could be on your mat,
Could be on your couch,
Could be on your bed.
It could just be wherever you're comfortable.
So find that place.
Allow your body to begin to relax.
Relax.
To find that place,
You've got to start with the breath.
Simplest thing that is consistent in our day and our night.
So you breathe in,
Then you breathe out.
Start there.
So you're going to take a deep cleansing breath in,
And from there,
Out.
Release all the tension in your body.
Wherever you take this seat,
This relaxing exercise here,
Some may relax immediately,
Some may just take a little more time.
That's okay.
So feel complete relaxing.
We're going to start once you're in your spot.
You have settled in,
Found your breath.
You're going to use your mind's eye with your eyes closed.
You're going to picture yourself on a warm spring.
It could even be a hot tub.
Whatever currently suits you.
Whatever calls your attention.
Wherever it is,
It's warm water or spring.
And you're going to basically just let it envelop you,
You're going to sit.
Visualize yourself sitting there relaxing.
Find that place in your mind's eye.
You have to slowly put one foot in,
Feel the warmth.
So that once you find that place,
So the relaxation is going to start as if at the bottom of your feet as you put your foot,
Left foot,
Right foot in.
So that's what it feels like,
Like a tingling sensation on your foot.
First step in.
So you're allowing that relaxation wherever that place may be on your feet,
Starting from your feet.
So you're relaxing.
And now it's up to your ankles.
Your field of relaxation rising up your legs.
So picture each leg,
Each muscle relaxing as you still breathe.
Relaxing is moving up your legs.
So your left leg.
So your whole torso is all relaxed.
Relaxed.
Your ankles are relaxed.
Your lower leg,
Left leg is relaxed.
Your right leg,
Your left knee and your right knee.
It's like sinking,
Comfortable sinking,
Relaxing.
And now your right thigh and your left thigh,
Your whole torso is relaxed.
As you're calm,
You're going to kind of move up to your mind's eye.
That's right between your forehead and the center of your brow.
So relax.
Notice.
Pretend that you are being touched right in your mind's eye.
Just gentle tapping.
Soft tapping.
Now you're relaxed.
So now you're tapping.
And your eyebrow is relaxed.
And your left eyebrow is relaxed.
Your right eyebrow is relaxed.
Now your forehead is all relaxed.
It feels cool and relaxed.
So you want to let the relaxation spread further to the top of your head.
Just focus on what that feels like.
Full relaxation.
Feel it from the flowing throughout your body,
From your head to your feet.
Your upper torso,
Your lower torso,
Your right arm.
Your left arm.
You're going to breathe in.
Now hold that breath.
Just keep holding.
Now relax your muscles and exhale.
Allowing the breath to flow out through your nose or your mouth,
Whichever.
Take another deep breath.
You're breathing in with relaxation.
Full body relaxation.
Now you release the breath.
Exhale,
Squeeze.
You're going to breathe out any remaining tension.
Continue to breathe in at your own pace and slowly mouth through your nose.
Slowly.
And as you mentally scan your body,
Just kind of look around in your mind's eye.
Is there anything,
Any muscle that's still there,
That's still needing squeezed and relaxed?
And if there is,
Zoom in on that.
It's okay.
It could be your little knot in your back,
In your shoulder.
In your wrist,
You've been typing all day.
It's somewhere.
There is this direction,
Your relaxation to that area.
Just let it flow.
Just breathe in.
And when you breathe in,
Focus on that place.
Just pretend that you are putting all your fresh,
Refreshed breath of life that you take in into that spot.
And as it goes in to that spot,
It expands the spot to relax.
Now,
Picture the tension in your body leaving each breath out.
Simply relax calmly.
Relax.
Absorb.
Be present with the filling you have right now as you relax.
Let's take a few moments and take a pause.
Simply focus on the healing that needs to take place.
Just create an image in your mind's eye of being right here in this current state.
Imagine that emotion,
Imagine the physical element that might be on your mind today,
On your body.
It could be an injury.
Something that's diagnosed,
Someone that's diagnosed.
It could be a problem that's just not even there or identified yet.
It is on the horizon.
It is life,
Whatever that is.
You want to heal it.
Imagine that in your mind's eye right now.
So you may want to imagine the motion,
The area as a dark area that you're going to just bring light to.
And this process of breathing in through your nose,
Breathing in from your toes up through your body is that healing relaxation.
That's life.
Now we're going to do direct.
So imagine that light,
It's a spotlight.
Spotlighting the areas that you're going to focus the light on.
The dark areas.
Imagine that light now is spread and completely engulfed,
Enveloped by this process of relaxation.
Relax.
Imagine your immune system is geared up.
You're going to go in and tap on it.
It has your attention,
You have its attention,
And it is working to heal you.
Just create channels,
Create places for that healing to travel through every cell and your muscle.
Anywhere it really needs to go.
The relaxation finds its course,
The healing follows through the body.
Body now.
It's just filled with complete presence,
Relaxation.
And that relaxation is consumed.
Your problems.
We all have them.
We all need to relax.
So you breathe.
So you breathe.
You see that problem,
That your body is healing.
And now you see it coming lighter,
Smaller in size,
Lighter in weight.
It's filled with that relax.
And with it,
It sends the uncomfortable away.
You are.
You are healing.
Just allow your body to heal.
Allow your body to fill the lungs.
You can take this breath,
Even if it's for five seconds,
Sometimes behind a closed door,
Sitting in your car,
Find a closed eye,
Or just watching from afar.
Relax for a few more moments and imagine in your mind's eye this process of healing.
Your cells are expanding,
Defending,
Strong.
Your body is comfortable.
Your body is confident.
Your mind is strong.
And yet your mind is flexible.
Now you're feeling calm in that peace.
Don't be distracted.
As you sit for a while,
Return.
