Relax

Good Morning just finished some relaxation therapy and I feel good!

I'm so happy that I have found something that helps me on a daily basis.

My hopes are that you will be willing to try a form of relaxation therapy to help you too. I've been doing deep breathing, meditation and mental imagery for about 2 years now.

Relaxation is easier said than done. It does take practice. There are many websites out there...explore and personalize...see what works for you.

Take a deep breath

and let it out slow

 

The power to relax

is yours to know

 

Close your eyes

use mental imagery

You can visit an island of Figi

 

Let your mind travel

be open to explore

 

A world of relaxation

is just behind a door

 

Feel your muscles loosen

beginning to unwind

 

A world of tranquility

is waiting for you to find

 

Hugs, Robin

 

Have a beautiful day, my friends

 

Hi Robins,
I used to do relaxation techniques/meditation, but we live in a flat and have noisy neighbours upstairs and next door, so getting some peace and quiet to do it is very difficult. If i could manage to block out surrounding sounds then it would be great for me, but i just can't seem to do it.

Im glad you've found something that helps you and hopefully so many others will find it a great help.

Hugz, Amz

I just took 10 minutes and sat on the stoop at the office soaking up some sun ....yes!!! It was actually very relaxing but I didn't do any meditation, I smoked a cig. I know, not healthy but it is one of my only vices.

I have never meditated, my mind wanders quite a bit thinking of what I need to get done and the best most efficient (less work) way to do it.

Amz, try ear plugs and playing some soothing music when you do your relaxation. I am so happy I discovered ear plugs for my husband's snoring!!! And my neighbor's dogs and rooster.

Or put headphones on with music, that will help tune everything out.

Thanks for this post Robin. I have my watch alarm set for 1 pm everyday, and then I shut my office door and do relaxation breathing and guided imagery for 15 minutes. It helps me release some tension and get through the afternoon.

A cup of coffee and a cigarette was how I used to relax. I could drink a pot of coffee myself and smoke almost 2 packs of cigs in a day. I quit smoking almost 24 years ago, and only drink coffee on the weekends now. I still allow myself to smoke in my dreams..lol and it seems very real.

hugs, Robin
