Lean your right ear down to your right shoulder and stretch the left side of your neck as you do. Call up a good friend and laugh heartily for a few good minutes. We can also trigger this same reaction when faced with something unexpected or something that frustrates our goals.

It's certainly very difficult to force a laugh while in a stressful situation. Spend time each day with a beloved pet. Any given situation in your life is not stressful in itself. A good hobby that really interests you will breathe new life into your day.

Calming the Racing Mind

Some people feel that they can relax their muscles very well, but that their minds continue to just race on.


Here are some good techniques to use if your mind races:


Relax your body completely.
Take in 4 deep breaths, repeating 4 to yourself as you exhale.
Then take 3 deep breaths, repeating 3 when you exhale.
Now take 2 deep breaths, repeating 2 when you exhale.
Finally, take 1 deep breath, repeating 1 as you exhale.


At the same time, focus your mind on a pleasant image. Imagine that you are a passive observer of something very relaxing where there is repetitive motion.

Example: relaxing on the beach, watching the waves go back and forth or just lying in the grass and watching as the clouds move by overhead.

Finally, now you want to cause your mind to go completely blank. As you are focusing on this repetitive movement, begin to envision a blank form. Just like you are standing on the edge of an abyss where there is no form and all is void.

Focus on the void and remain there as you continue to relax deeper and deeper. Hold this as long as you can.
