Specific Question about MILD

[Jhawk1206]

I have determined that the MILD technique is the best place for me start, but I had a question or two regarding its execution. I have tried doing it on my own, but I find that, even if I meditate, my mind gets bored and starts thinking about other things. However, I got the idea that I could write out a rough script for my wife to read to me as I am going to bed. This would include a relaxation exercise, going back into a dream, and then the suggestion mantras. Has anyone tried this, or does anyone have an opinion on the validity of this? My thought was the this: #1. I don't seem to have the focus to keep my mind on one thing purely with my own will (I've always been this way. My mind races throughout most of the day.). #2. I believe that I probably trust her more than I trust myself, so I figured the suggestion may actually work better if she was doing the talking, plus it would give me something to focus on rather than just my own thoughts. One other question: Is it best to stick with one sentence for the suggestions, or is it okay to say one several times and then switch to another? Thanks for taking the time to read and comment. Take care.
