Stress Reduction (Fireplace) ASMR



Welcome to change your mind meditation.  I want you to find a comfortable place to sit or lay down.  I want you to take a deep breath in and as you exhale release any stress or tension.  Another deep breath in and on your exhale release any worries and stress of the day.  On your final deep breath in breath in relaxation and calm and with your exhale let go of any remaining tension in your body and in your mind and just relax. This is your time to be calm.


I want you to picture yourself sitting comfortably on a couch, maybe curled up if that is comfortable for you.   You’re wearing comfortable clothing and you have a blanket around you. You are feeling warm and content.  You are looking at a fire burning across the room from you.  You’re just relaxing on the couch enjoying the fire.  Smell the wood burning.  It’s a nice relaxing smell.  The lights in the room are dim.  Most of the light is coming from the fireplace and there is a small reading lamp behind you on a table next to the couch.  You watch the fire in the fireplace focusing all of your attention on watching the fire. You have nothing to worry about nothing else to think about, just enjoying the fire and the relaxation.  You hear the crackling of the fire and you look outside and see snow coming down and the wind blowing. That doesn’t concern you because you’re nice and warm under your blanket looking at the fire.  You know with the snow predicted that evening that you won’t have work or school the next day.   You have plenty of heat and food and water and the storm doesn’t concern you, except you know you have the day of relaxation tomorrow, and that allows you to be worry free and just relax and watch the fire.  Someone comes into the room and places a hot chocolate on the table next to you.  The come and curl up on the couch with you.  It may be someone you know and love or someone you haven’t met yet.   You don’t need to decide who it is who is spending this evening with you but you know that they care for you and love you and will take care of you.  All you need to do is watch the flames, drink your hot chocolate and relax with this person you love.  


Keep that feeling of relaxation and calm and know that you can return to this feeling by closing your eyes and picturing the flames of the fire.   You can now drift off to sleep or begin to return to the room where you’re sitting by wiggling your fingers and toes and when you feel ready opening your eyes, or let the calm relaxation take you off to sleep.  Remember meditation changes your mind

Relaxation Meditation to Chile



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.   Take a deep breath in and as you exhale release all stress and tension from your body.  Take a deep breath in, breathing in relaxation and as you exhale, releasing all tension and stress.  Take another deep breath in and with this final exhale release any remaining tension that you hold in your body.  Let your breathing return to normal.  Let your body and mind feel relaxed.  Let your body feel heavy and warm and relaxed.


Now you are ready to go on a trip with me.  I’m so excited that you decided to come on this trip.  We are going to be landing soon, and I can’t wait to show you around Chile.  I have traveled around Chile many times.  So, you can just get to relax and I can show you around. It’s ok if you don’t speak Spanish.  I do and I’m going to take care of you on this trip and make sure you have fun.  We are getting ready to land in Santiago.   We can spend a little bit of time visiting the city, and then decide where we would like to spend the rest of our month on vacation.  I love traveling to Chile because I get to feel a bit disoriented with a different language and a different culture.  It always allows me to put my life into perspective and think about what is important to me and what I want in my life moving forward.  I hope to allow you to experience that as well on this trip.  So I am going to take care of everything and you can just relax and enjoy yourself and have fun.  I think we might start off by going to Valpariaso so we can see the ocean and spend some time visiting that city that I love.  We may decide to spend the whole month there, if you love it, or we can go up to the most perfect desert in the world.   The last time I visited I met a 30 year old man who had never seen rain.   It’s a beautiful place to visit, or we can go down south and visit some of the islands.  It depends on what we feel like doing.  That is one of my favorite parts about visiting Chile, is I have never had to plan a trip.  There are always plenty of guest houses, so if one doesn’t have room we can just go to another one.  If we love a place we can stay for a week or the whole time and when we are ready to move on we can travel to the next city on the list.   We don’t have t o preplan, just enjoy ourselves and you can relax and be on vacation.  Since I have traveled here before I can take care of you and I don’t have anywhere I need to be or need to see.  So we can do exactly what you want to do.  You are going to love it here.  It is so exciting to be able to travel together and have a whole month off  for vacation to do whatever we want.  I want you to remember that feeling, as you start to begin to return to the room or if you prefer just to drift off to sleep with dreams of vacation.  Remember meditation changes your mind

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.
