Ten Minute Meditation For A Relaxing Energy

By: Gina Cool

Try this easy yoga and meditation routine to relax your body and energize your mind. Each pose can be done now at your computer. In other words, don't wait to "relax" when you are done working...DO IT NOW!!!!

With this meditation you can really increase your relaxation!!! It is convenient and really does work. It is all about getting your mind and body in "that zone".

Start out in a cross legged or any seated position. Pull you shoulders up, back, and then down. Lift your chest up to the sky, and contract your abs. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. Use the back of your throat to create that raspy sound to control the air flow and prevent hyperventilation. When you breathe in through your nose, stick out your tummy. Stick it way out. Just like a baby when he breathes in. Visualize how a baby breathes, it's perfect. Then contract it back in when you breathe out through your mouth as if you are protecting yourself from a punch.

Lifting up through your cage, pull your chin in and open up the back of your neck. Now make a conscious effort to relax your hands, feet, and face muscles. You are going to start concentrating on your breathing. In through your nose, and out through your mouth.

Close your eyes now for three minutes or so now while using this "diaphragmatic breathing technique". After you open your eyes, rub your hands together then place them over your eyes for another two minutes give or take. When you open your eyes again, slightly lean forward...then back.....then to the right......then to the left.....then center yourself.

Close your eyes again for 2 more minutes and think of someone you love. Then dedicate this meditation to them. When you open your eyes for a third time, place your right hand over your forehead, as close to your skin as you can, with out actually touching it. Make small circles around that area.This area represents your "inner voice". Some people call it Gods voice or intuition.

Close your eyes and keep using the diaphramatic breathing technique and visualize a high vibrational energy made out of cool blue light breathing in thru that inner voice space on your forehead. Clearing it and opening it. While you breathe out thru your mouth, visualize any low vibrational energy or negative energy coming out. Open your eyes after 30 seconds.

You are then going to take your left hand over your throat and do the same thing and know that this area represents your self expression and confidence. 30 seconds with your hand over this area.

Ok, now take your right hand and place it over your heart. Know that this area represents peace, love, and harmony. Open this area up. Now close your eyes and do the same thing. Close your eyes for 30 seconds with your hand over this area.

Now take your left hand and place it over your solar plexis (Diaphram) and know that this area represents your confidence and strength. Imagine yourself strong and confident. Remember to continue imagining the high vibrational energy/light breathing in that area. Close your eyes for 30 seconds with your hand over this area.

Now your right hand goes over the area between your belly button and pubic bone. Breath in that high energy, remember out thru your mouth. This area will represent order, organization, and cleansing. Close your eyes for 30 seconds with your hand over this area.

Lastly, put both hands over either knee. This will represent your foundations. Visualize your home, school, social circles, etc.... as strong and supportive. Close your eyes for 30 seconds with your hands over these areas.

Now, close your eyes one more time for several minutes if you like and visualize yourself with the following gifts as if you are looking at a snap shot of yourself: a. intuitive b. self expressive c. in harmony and joy d.strong, very strong and confident e. in order and organized and f. in a supportive and friendly home, community , and universe.
