1) Lie down on your back in a dark room.
2) Close your eyes and try to focus on the shapes of light that you will “see” when your eyes are closed.
3) After a minute of focusing on those shapes, you should feel tranquil. At this point,
raise your left arm at 45 degrees and hold it for a count of five. At the end of the count, forget that your arm is connected to your torso and just let gravity take control - your arm will drop to the mattress.
4) Next,
raise your right arm, holding for a count of five and then releasing. Move on to your
left leg, raising it 45 degrees in the air for a count of five, then release. Repeat for
right leg.
5) The last step of relaxation is to remove all stress from your neck, which is a common part of your body that “bears the brunt” of your difficult day. Slowly
raise your neck slightly off the mattress for a count of five, and then release and let gravity take hold.
6) Lying there, with your eyes closed, your entire body should feel completely at ease - almost weightless.[/b]
