Phase 1 – Relax Physically (Variation)

Prompt Sheet 36

Make yourself comfortable – taking time out for yourself … and focus on your breathing – take two or three long, slow, deep breaths and each time – focus on the outgoing breath … blow it out gently by way of the mouth … slowly, easily … is the way to let go. If any thoughts intrude … smile and ignore them … you know their game … just let them go. Now – become aware of your legs – useful things – and stiffen the muscles in your knees – stretch … hold … relax … stiffen … relax … and notice how good it feels as you release any tension from your leg muscles … point your toes … and relax … feel the energy flow.

Now – do the same with your shoulders, arms and hands … tense and relax … tense and relax. Fan your fingers out wide … and let your hands relax. Stress check often, until you relearn the art of relaxing – you will respond more appropriately when a need arises … you will respond with SRA … spontaneous right action.

Now, your face and jaw muscles – grimace, stretch your jaw – mouth wide open – waggle your head … relax. Close your eyes tightly … open … now let them close gently and feel the sense of relaxation spread all the way down to your toes – and notice how good it feels. And from time to time … just relax … stretch and relax to Phase One … stay tuned in to yourself … and choose to feel good.

FOREST TRIP

Prompt Sheet 37

And now go even deeper into relaxation – deeply into the deepest realm of creative mind … control mind … the treasurehouse mind … and reach out to the child-mind within … see her smile as you reach out and embrace … you are going on a journey together … a journey of your choosing … because then … of course … all journeys are of your own choosing … though we sometimes forget how we make the choice …

And it’s night-time now – a glorious night of moonlight and stars – a night made for lovers … a night when even the angels sigh … and you are deep in a mysterious forest … and the moonlight is shining on an ancient temple deep in the darkest part of the forest.

Great silence … and you enter … surrounded by a strange violet light that illuminates a great hall … and strange but kindly people appear – and they invite you to sit with them … and one, who is a beautiful woman with radiant green eyes … makes a gentle gesture with an elegant hand … and a glowing ball of golden light is there in front of you … and she smiles and explains … and one by one, all the people in your life who have hurt or harmed or shamed or betrayed you in any way … appear … one by one … and as each one appears … you see how you have contributed in some way or another … perhaps just through your presence … to whatever happened between you … in ways your conscious mind conveniently forgot … and will now recall … you will see clearly how the relationship problems arose.

In the stillness that follows … the person who hurt you the most will appear … when the person is here – your ‘Yes’ finger will rise.
    Is the person a man or a woman?
   Who is it? Convey your feelings … express them fully now … as you couldn’t do before …     What do you want to do to him/her? …
    (Physical release). Now … can you forgive … and forget?

Come back now and know that you can travel alone to that temple in the forest … to that centre of power and control in yourself – to find your answers to whatever you need to know … to resolve whatever problems you need to resolve … to become aware of all your options in life … to make wise choices … to be guided to spontaneous right action … every new moment of now.

You are a centre – a focal point – for vast creative expression …
    Open to it – open to it … know where the power is … go there … you will be helped …

You will be healed … right in the moment.
    Be grateful … be discreet … move on to greater things.
    You will find that you do better than well – much better than well.

You excel.

CHANGING EMOTIONS

Prompt Sheet 38

First the event – then the emotion – then the thought – then your reaction.
    Anything that stirs the same emotion can trigger the same response … triggered a few times … it establishes a trace … a pathway … a habitual pattern of response …
    The stronger the emotion – the stronger the habit … and fear of rejection is a strong motivator … our basic need is for love, respect, support, acceptance, approval.
    And we need that acceptance ourselves …
   Accepting ourselves as we are … and blossoming from there. You can’t blossom – striving to become – like expecting a plant to grow if you keep pulling it up to examine the roots … speak to the roots – yes … that’s where the real work is done!
    How are you … what’s happening down there? Can I help in any way from here? Perhaps by just letting you be … so … dream for 60 seconds.

Anger: that’s a secondary response … what feeling causes the anger … what caused the previous feeling?
    Press your shoulders back and take a long, slow, deep breath and as you exhale … feel yourself relax.
    You can’t relax by doing something – you relax by doing nothing … you first do something – you tense – then relaxation can happen.
    You can’t change from what you know … you will bring what you know into the future with you. You change from what you have forgotten … from a state of mind beyond the beyond that you know – from long before your mother and father were born. So I don’t point out a new path in life for you – I show you how to expand your options. I don’t advise you to choose a lifestyle – that’s your business. You’re already full of advice … of what others think.

Back to childhood … back to those impressionable years … learning to adapt our feelings to our circumstances … forming habit patterns … some maladaptive feelings of low self-esteem – inability to cope, fears of rejection that stifle our ability to realise our true potential … I’m going to mention some feelings … and you will link and connect the feelings to real events in your life.

• Jealousy for example – feeling that you are not getting the attention you are due – and jealous of someone who seems to be getting your share … wanting to be the centre of attention … link and connect to a real event … your index finger will rise when you’re there.
• Anxiety … anxious to make a good impression … worried about what people will think … uptight. Be there and indicate when you are.
• Possessiveness … Not sharing things … everything’s mine.
• Avoiding responsibility … It wasn’t my fault – it was your fault.
• Feelings of guilt … It was all my fault … I’m going to keep feeling bad about that.
• Perfectionism … Everything has to be my way – do it my way or it’s wrong.
• Playacting … Pretending there was something wrong with you to avoid doing something.
• Link and connect to a time when you did that.

And know that we all do our best – at the time – the best within the bounds of your life understanding …

So just relax and forgive … live and let live … learning to handle our emotions … our relationships … is part of the game of life … you will find that you can play it … and win.
