You’re not thinking about it. 
You’re not analyzing it. 
You’re not judging it. 
You’re actually ACKNOWLEDGING that they’re there, 
Almost with a tinge of acceptance, Because it’s already there. 
There is nothing wrong with experiencing those things. 
That’s part of being human. 
There’s no need to be overly critical or judgmental of them. 
It’s enough just to note it As THINKING or FEELING,
Depending on whether it’s a thought or sensation, and then to come back to the breath, again and again, feeling less and less anxious, in the mind, and in the body....

 It’s common to tighten around your discomfort. You tense the body when you are struggling, trying to rid yourself of the unpleasantness. Instead of tightening, you can make room for the pain. Welcoming it in and meeting it with a caring presence, you have the power to retrain the mind. This helps you build a nonreactive awareness. Rather than being controlled by every challenging situation, you can notice it, allow it to be present, and move forward. 

 While there are many possible anchors to hold our attention, such as sound or sensations throughout the body, the most common and the one we’ll explore here is the breath.  Now, close your eyes....

 I am delighted to guide you into a very deep state of physical and mental relaxation. Please be sure you will not be distracted by anyone or any nearby device. Turn them to the off position or place them in another room on silent. This time is very important for you, so there is no need for any interaction with the outside world. Get into in a very comfortable position now, with your favorite pillow or under a blanket if you wish. You can be sitting or laying down, however is best for you. Your clothing should be loose and comfortable and not restrictive around your waist as to allow for full and easy breathing. You are in a very safe and secure place, and absolutely nothing will distract you for the duration of this session. This time right now is entirely yours 

Welcome to this guided meditation session to create a safe place for you... Chronic pain can be very hard to handle, but many times when we create a mental image of our suffering, we tend to aggravate this pain, thus increasing it. Then every time we feel this sensation, we will have a negative thought attached to it on a conscious and subconscious level. So what this meditation will teach you are techniques to change the mental image that has been created from this pain, and instead implement a peaceful association with pleasant visualizations that create a warmer bonding between you and your body’s sensations. This allows you to accept and allow instead of fight and push away. Make sure you are in a very comfortable position. Sit down, or lay down if that feels good for you, however you need to position yourself so that none of your muscles are activated or tense. Every part of your body can rest and feel completely relaxed during this meditation. 

 Sleep is a powerful experience that we all have, no matter who you are... Sleep allows our bodies to heal and our minds to sort through any problems, so that we can create our future. Hypnosis and meditation are wonderful ways for us to access a slower brain frequency state, that is similar to when we are sleeping. This allows for the creative brain to activate and begin the process of manifesting your desires. Are you ready to go into a very relaxing state to allow yourself the deep sleep every night that you deserve? Find a small spot to gaze at somewhere comfortably in front of you. Focus on this spot and do not let your eyes turn away. As you look here, I am going to ask you to blink your eyes with every number I count, starting with the number 10 

The way the body breathes can tell you a lot about what you are experiencing. When you’re anxious or angry, you may find the breath to be shallow and rapid. When you are resting, the breath slows down and is often deeper. The relationship between the breath, the body, and the mind goes both ways. By breathing more deeply, you are telling the nervous system you are safe. This exercise engages the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for feelings of safety, relaxation, and ease. This practice is designed to bring you back into that feeling of safety at any time you might need it. 

Sometimes it all just seems too heavy.  This meditation is designed to give you back the control that you have over letting yourself not go to far forward or too far back. Simply dropping the baggage.
