The eight Relaxation Response Meditation steps:Step One: Pick a brief phrase or word that reflects your basic belief system.
Step Two: Choose a comfortable position.
Step Three: Close your eyes. Gently close your eyes and relax the area around your eyes.
Step Four: Relax your muscles using progressive muscle relaxation.
Step Five: Become aware of your breathing, and start using your faith-rooted focus word.
Step Six: Maintain a passive attitude. Be an observer to whatever emerges in awareness without judgement.
Step Seven: Continue for a set period of time. Any amount of time can be beneficial, but if possible choose to meditate for at least 10 to a maximum of 20 minutes.
Step Eight: Practice the technique twice daily.
3 Ways to Combine EFT with Relaxation Response Meditation:- Tap a round of EFT for letting go of stress / tension prior to your meditation session.
- address your subconscious mind prior to the meditation session and voice an invitation such as: “As I meditate I invite my subconscious mind to bring into awareness any belief, memory, or desire that can benefit from one or more sessions of EFT.”
- Tap in a Positive Energy Form after your meditation session.
