How do I enter into complete relaxation? It begins with posture. Prone is best for me, on my stomach, eyes closed. Then begin breathing, deeply through the mouth then out through the mouth. For better or worse I am a mouth breather. Oh well.
Once the posture is right, then I envision all thoughts and emotions as objects. I prefer cars or motorcycles. The thoughts just stream by me, I do not have to interact with them at all. I am sitting on the side of the road, waiting for the bus. The cars and motorcycles and trucks that lumber past pay me no notice, and I don’t pay any attention to them either.
I am completely relaxed. Now what?
Now what do I do? I have achieved relaxation state. Ah, yes, now I try to just stay here as long as possible. Remain in a relaxed frame of mind for as long as possible. Laugh. Laugh when I am relaxed, it opens up happy pathways in my brain.
Happy pathways are good for my soul. And for my body.
