I have always known that the mind can have an effect on the body but it was nice to put that into practice. With three kids it is hard to find the time to enjoy such things. I am glad this course made that a requirement :). I am going to recommend this recording to my grandmother who has serious problems with the blood circulation in her legs which puts her in a ton of pain. I think it could really make a difference.Here is a link to some nice Relaxation Music.

Reflection on a relaxation exercise
Listening to the relaxation recording and taking part in the exercise was amazing and even a little strange! I was amazed to find that fifteen minutes had gone by as the recording ended and I came back to reality. I did indeed find my arms and hands to be heavier and warmer as I suggested the blood flow to those areas. Strangely enough I even found myself switching a little lol! I also came out of the relaxation exercise feeling more energized which was strange considering how completely relaxed I was. I feel better now because I have to admit trying to figure out all of this blogging stuff did make me a little frustrated and stressed out lol!

Hello Heidi,
ReplyDeleteI too enjoyed the exercise a lot. I was twitching as well. That was great, I think I will find some time to do it everyday. Looking forward to blogging with you!
Hello Heidi
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed it as well it was a nice break to a busy day and I was just as suprised to realize the time had passed without me really noticing it. At first I had a little trouble relaxing the bells kept distracting me.
Hi Ladies,
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting! I tried the exercise while I laid in bed last night. I focused on relaxing and sending blood to my whole body. Normally it takes me hours to fall asleep but I found that soon after I was out like a light! How nice! Not only that but I had some pretty amazing dreams :).
