TWO MINUTE RELAXATION Find yourself a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down. Uncross your arms and legs (crossing your arms and legs creates physical tension). Check the main tension points and consciously allow them to relax: Unclench your teeth and relax your jaws. Drop your shoulders. Open your hands and spread your fingers, then relax. Be aware of your position in the chair or on the bed. Concentrate on your head for a moment, then your arms, the trunk of your body, your legs. Listen to the sound of your breathing, don't do anything, just listen. It is unimportant whether you breathe quickly or slowly, just listen. Now take a deeper breath. As you breath in, make sure you breath in through the belly, if you are doing this properly your hand will rise as your belly expands. As you exhale, your belly area will deflate and your hand will sink down with it. Take another breath through your belly, and hold for a mental count of two, then release all the air from the body in a long low deep sigh, and relax. Let your breathing return to normal again. Very gently tighten all of your muscles, and as you release the tension, allow your eyes to close comfortably and naturally as you begin to feel physically calm. Repeat as often as you feel the need.
