Welcome to change your mind meditation. I want you to find a comfortable place to sit
or lay down and if you feel comfortable close your eyes on its take a deep
breath and e hale release saying all the tension in your shoulders. Take another deep breath in, feel yourself relaxing
and exhale. Let your forehead relax, let
your jaw relax, let your mind relax. Another
deep breath in, beginning to feel totally calm and at peace, and as you exhale
release any worries or anxiety. Let all
stress leave your body and your mind.
Now, I want you to picture that you’re sitting in a massage
chair. If you have not seen one before,
your knees are resting on a chair as you sit and lean forward with your face in
a face cradle. I will begin to give you
a relaxing scalp massage to totally relax your mind and your body. I’m going to begin by holding either side of
your head. Taking a few deep breaths and
then spreading my fingers, and using small hard circles on your scalp; slightly
moving my fingers, so that they move all around your scalp. Letting the muscles in your scalp relax, and
then moving my four fingers together and using the pressure of all four fingers
and my thumb. I’m making small hard
circles around your scalp. You can use quite a lot of pressure on the
scalp. Most people find deep pressure on
the scalp comforting and it allows the muscles of the scalp to relax. Thos are the muscles that can give you a
headache from tension. Tight muscles in
your shoulder can radiate up to those scalp muscles.
Now I’m going to use my thumbs in a zigzag motion, going
from the middle of your forehead backwards all the way to the nape of your
neck. Using my thumbs back and forth,
zigzagging back through your hair. Moving
to the left and zigzagging from your forehead to the back of your head to your
neck. The once again farther to the left
hand side, zigzagging back and forth, allowing the muscles to relax. Now moving to the right hand side, and zigzagging
back and forth all the way down the back of your head to your neck. And
one more time on the right hand side, from the edge of your forehead, all the
way back behind your ears, down the back of your head to your neck. Now I’m going to make my hands into a fist and
starting at the edge of your of your forehead I’m going to use my knuckles, gently,
in small circles; moving back from your forehead to the top of your head, my
knuckles on either side, going down the back of your head. Again, because it’s the bone, being very
gentle but allowing those muscles to relax, all the way back to the nape of
your neck. Then holding your head again
on either side, using my palms to make small hard circles on the side of your
head, and then holding your head lightly.
I take a deep breath with you and exhale, allowing you to fully and
completely relax.
Now I want you to remember that feeling of relaxation and
know you can cup your hands to the side of your head to remember that feeling and
you can use that feeling to drift off to sleep, or wiggle your fingers and toes
and return to the room. Remember
meditation changes your mind
