Relaxation
Relaxation the best way to reach the sub-conscious and
will slow down the mind, turn off the exterior world so
as to tune in to one's inner self. The best times for these
sessions are in the morning and late at night right, just
before going to sleep.
Perform two sessions, one in the afternoon (Primary) and
the other before going to sleep (Secondary) but once a day
is quite sufficient. Sessions usually last 20 minutes, which
isn't time consuming especially when taking in the benefits
received.
When you begin your relaxation sessions, make sure you
won't be disturbed - lock the door, take the phone off the
hook and loosen all clothing. Now find a comfortable position,
whether it is lying down or sitting in a comfortable chair.
Sitting may be preferable as you may fall asleep if you
become too comfortable. You want to be conscious and not
asleep in order to tap into your sub-conscious mind.
Try to exhale all the air from your lungs completely and
then breathing in through the nose. Take ten seconds to
fill the lungs with air (not to capacity, but comfortable)
hold for ten seconds and then exhale slowly through the
nose for another ten seconds.
Each one of these breathing cycles should last for 30 seconds,
complete five cycles and after each cycle you will be feeling
more and more relaxed.
Having reached this calm relaxed state, start your visualizations.
Put together images that power your emotions. Make them
alive and colourful. Make the scenes as real as possible
and imagine yourself as muscular and toned as possible.
Picture yourself ten weeks from now on the beach, walking
briskly and confidently to your favourite spot, your breathing
is normal and relaxed. You smile to yourself; you could
keep walking like this for miles without feeling fatigued.
You lay your towel out and begin to take your clothes off
revealing a muscular, toned, well conditioned body. You
have just bought a brand new swimming suit which just weeks
before would have been lying in your closet waiting to be
used.
Glancing around you notice the beach is busy, you catch
the eye of someone of the opposite sex, they smile at you
and you smile back. You walk confidently to the water and
swim a couple of hundred yards with no problem or fatigue.
Or try this:
Visualize your family and friends complimenting you about
how good your body looks. Try to view the scene as it is
happening this instant - in the present, not in the future.
Using these visualizations you can construct in your mind
any scene that desire. See yourself exercising, socializing,
in the company of friends. Try and hear people complimenting
you about your new muscular body, and watch their admiring
glances. Make the mental image as real as possible.
• Remember set a goal for your ideal weight.
• You must want to gain weight.
• Visualize yourself at your ideal weight.
• Use positive images at every opportunity.
Now that you are armed with this information practice
these sessions on a daily basis and over a period of ten
weeks you’ll be on your way to become a happier,
leaner and more muscular person.
