Relaxing Massage Meditation ASMR

Changing things up this week.  I hope you enjoy it.

Welcome to change your mind meditation.   I want you to find a comfortable place to sit or lay down.  We are going to start with three deep breaths.  Close your eyes if you are comfortable or you can just look at the slides.   Take a deep breath in and exhale.  As you exhale release any tension in your body. Take a deep breath in and feel yourself becoming deeply relaxed.   One more deep breath in and on your exhale let go of any tension, any concerns of the day let it all go.  This is your time to relax and to be taken care of and calm down.  

I want you to picture yourself at a spa.  You're sitting in the relaxation room waiting for your massage to begin.   You are excited about this treatment today.  You've needed some time to relax and feel taken care of.  As you Massage Therapist enters the room.   She calls your name and escorts you to the treatment room.  She shows you the table and where you can hang your robe.  She leaves the room to let you disrobe and get under the sheet on the table.  You climb onto the table face down with your face in the face cradle. 

After you get comfortable you hear a quiet knock on the door.  Your therapist reenters the room.  Your therapist has warm massage oil.  She fills her hand with massage oil and pulls the sheet down to your hips.  She rubs the warm massage oil on you back using long, slow strokes; Spreading the massage oil gently on your back.  Your body relaxes as she begins to knead the muscle on the side of your back and your shoulders.  As your body relaxes so does your mind.  You let all concerns leave your mind and just enjoy the wonderful massage.  This is your time to relax. 

She massages your legs on the back and your feet.  Everything is warm.  There is quite massage music in the background.  The lights are dim and you can smell a bit lavender in the massage oil. 
She has you flip over, making sure you're fully covered by the sheet, and massages the front of your legs in long slow strokes.  Your muscles relax.  The pressure is enough that you can feel it and its not ticklish but it does not hurt.  She massages your arms and your hands, relaxing your biceps and the muscles in your wrists.  Then she sits behind you and slowly massages your shoulders and you scalp and ends with your face.  You are deeply relaxed, totally relaxed.  Remember this feeling of contentment and relaxation.  You can begin to return to the room where you are or decide to drift off to sleep. 

Remember meditation changes your mind.

Creativity Meditation for Beginners

Now I want you to picture yourself lying down. As you picture yourself your body begins to get bigger and bigger, and as you look at your head your skin becomes transparent and you can see your brain. As your head get bigger and bigger you begin to be able to see into your brain to the neurons inside your brain. I want you to look around inside of your brain; see the connections between the synapses. You may see what look like cobwebs of some permanent connections, forcing those connections to stay together. I want you to clean away those cobwebs, in order to release our creativity we have let go of some of the filters we use to bring in stimulation and to let ideas out. When our brain sees new information or thinks about new ideas it filters that information through the connections we formed from past experience, and it ignores the new information that we don't feel is irrelevant based on past information. That limits our creativity because we don't see the new information and we filter out new ideas that our brain might create. So right now you are going to clean away all of the cobwebs from your brain to allow that new information to enter, and allow your brain to create new ideas you may never have thought of before because your brain was working in the patterns that it's established from your past. I want you to think about creating that flexibility in your brain and taking that with you as you begin to return to the room. Feel where you're sitting or lying down; start to wiggler fingers and toes, and if you feel comfortable you can open your eyes and just drift off to sleep. Remember meditation changes your mind.

Vacation Meditation ASMR

The Berkshires are one of my favorite places in the world.  I went to college there and visit often.  My family had a cottage there so I never actually stayed at the Porches hotel but it is a place I will definitely get to some day: http://www.porches.com/.   Mass  MoCA is my favorite museum in the world and if you are ever in the area don’t miss a visit: http://www.massmoca.org/.   You can visit several times a year and always see something new.  These are both in North Adams Massachusetts and this area of the US is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been and it will always have part of my heart.

I’m going to take you on a trip to one of my favorite places.  You are going on vacation and you’re driving through the Berkshires in Massachusetts.  It’s a beautiful fall day.  The leaves have all changed colors but they are still on the trees.  You are driving through the hills with the beautiful colors surrounding you.  As you drive through the small towns you may stop to get coffee or a sandwich.  You can stop in Great Barrington to have a sandwich the deli.  You can keep driving through and stop in Lennox or Lee and have a coffee or do some shopping.  Cute little towns along the way with small stores and restaurants for you to peruse, but your destination is up north, going to the Porches hotel.  You check in to your beautiful room at the Porches hotel and sleep after your long drive through the Berkshires.  The next day you can visit the museum of art across the street, at Mass MoCA.  It has one of the largest galleries for contemporary art and their exhibits at always interesting.  You can head into town to have lunch, while you enjoy the rest of your day and plan your vacation.  There is lots to do in the Berkshires and you have several days to relax and enjoy your time.

I want you to remember that feeling of relaxation as you start to return to the room.  You can wiggle your fingers and toes and when you feel comfortable you can open your eyes.  Remember meditation changes your mind.

ASMR Meditation for Beginners (spa)

Welcome to change your mind meditation.  I want to find a comfortable place to sit or lay down, and if you feel comfortable close your eyes.   If you have been doing these meditations you have probably started to build up your lung capacity so we are going to increase the length of time of the breathing.  So, we will still start off with an in breath to the count of four and exhale to the count of eight; releasing any tension.  Now take a deep breath in to the count of five and exhale to the count of ten; let yourself relax.  Take a deep breath and to the count of six and exhale to the count of twelve if you can; deep exhale.

Now, even out your breathing.  Feel that breath coming in through your feet and as you exhale release any tension in your feet.  Inhale into your legs and as you exhale release any tension in your legs; in your calves and your thighs.  Take a deep breath into your torso and let your stomach relax; release any tension in your back.  Take a deep breath into your arms and as you exhale release any tension in your shoulders and your hands and your arms.  Take a deep breath in to your head and your neck and as you exhale let your forehead relax, your jaw relax and the back of your neck.  Take one more deep breath into your whole body and on this final exhale release any remaining tension you may hold in your body.   

Now we will begin our relaxing spa day.   You have been looking forward to this as your time to relax.   You’ve gotten there early so you can use the sauna and the steam room and the hot tub and there is even a cold punge.  You go and sit in the steam room and inhale and exhale as you relax.  You may decide to try the cold plunge and then run quickly to the hot tub to warm back up.  As you allow yourself to relax you know you have all day.  You can enjoy the spa and relax before you even get to your treatment.  You may try the cold plunge again before heading to the sauna to dry off a bit and then go to the relaxation room to wait for your treatment.  You may be getting a facial, or a massage, or a scrub, maybe a manicure and pedicure; whatever you desire.  Knowing that after your treatment you’ll again get to use the steam room and sauna and relax for as long as you would like.  There is tea and coffee and snacks so you can enjoy a long day at the spa.  You are already feeling so good and relaxed even before treatment and you are excited about your upcoming treatment.   

I want to remember that feeling as you start to return to the room.  You can wiggle your fingers and toes, and when you feel ready you can open your eyes.  Remember that feeling of relaxation and anticipation of your upcoming spa treatment, and keep that feeling for the rest of the day.  Remember meditation changes your mind.

It's My Baby's Birthday!

Now I want you to picture that you have the whole day ahead of you to do whatever you want.  This is your perfect day.  You can think about who you want to spend your time with.  Where you would like to be?  What you would like to do.  Will you spend time with family, with friends or will you just take a relaxing day by yourself with no obligations.  If you could choose anywhere where would you be on this day?  Is it a place that you have been before or just some place that you imagine will be perfect?  What will you do with your day?  Break you day up and think about how you will spend your morning.   What will you eat?  Where will you go?  Who will you see?  How will you spend your lunch hour?  Maybe you will take a lunch two or three hours.  How will you spend your time in the afternoon?  Where would you like to be?  What would be fun to do?  Or, do you just want to relax.  How will you spend your evening?  What will you have for dinner?   Will you go out later in the evening, or will you go to sleep early and get your rest?  Whatever it is, it’s your perfect day.  Remember that feeling of excitement and joy in having that whole day to yourself.  When you feel comfortable start to return to the room.   Hear the sounds around you.  Feel where you are sitting or lying down.  Wiggle your toes and your hands and think about if there is any way you can incorporate some piece of your perfect day into one of your upcoming days to remember that feeling and experience some of that Joy.  Remember meditation changes your mind.

Don't Miss Saxaphone Day

Now I want you to picture yourself in an airplane. You are on vacation.  You are just starting your vacation and you’re getting ready to land on the island of Bali in Indonesia.  You look out the window of the plane and you see the volcano ahead, and you look like you’re going to land on the water you are so close to the water. At the last minute the runway comes up and you land the airport. You go to your hotel by the beach, and enjoy some relaxation on the beach or by the pool as you recover from jet lag.  That night you go out to taste some of the local food; some fried fish or duck with rice or just some rice with vegetables and peanut sauce.  You enjoy walking around you could spell spices in the air, feel the humidity.  It’s warm and comfortable; at night there is a slight breeze and cools down a little bit.  The next day you make a point of getting a massage and local spa and that evening catching a local gamelan (Indonesian orchestra) and dance performance.  As you are back in your hotel you think about your plans for the rest of the week in Bali.  You may go up into the mountains where it’s a bit cooler;  go to the monkey sanctuary or go to see the volcano. Your whole week is ahead of you with plenty of time to relax.  I want you to keep that feeling as you start to return to the room.  Hear the sounds around you.  Feel where you are sitting or lying down.  You feel relaxed and energized by in little trip.  Remember the dictation changes your mind
