    Advanced visualization exercises

    ok, this is kink of 'out there' so hang on....

    in the MWO hypno which I listen to nightly there are a series of visualizations to bring you into a hypnotic state. They have to do with walking down stairs, laying in a hammock etc.
    during the year+ that I've been using this tool my mind wonders and I've found an interesting challenge:
    try to disassociate yourself from your human form in the visualization. it's not easy! I've tried to "be" a sphere for example. no arms or legs or head. just a spherical being of consciousness. you don't walk down stairs, you gently roll down them. You don't see out of your eyes since you don't have eyes, you just are conscious in all directions at once. it can be a pretty deep exercise and requires the right state of mind.

    ok, am I ready for a straightjacket yet?

    Sounds like fun det. I haven't listened to the hypnosis cd for awhile. It seemed like unconsciously pictured myself in a "ball gown" or as an angel.

            Here's whre I am with this now...it's been changing for me. As I descend I've been finding myself starting out on the stairs as myself. They are absolutely beautiful stairs, wide, gorgeous. They start narrow and curve out as if in a movie. I am just me. When I get to the bottom and go toward the esculator, it is wooden, one I've never seen before and I've taken off my shoes, my hair is down and I feel so much freer. The esculator is carpeted. There are other people going up the UP esculator, across from me, and I smile at them and wave, laughing. When I get to the bottom I can't believe the elevator. It's all glass. Sometimes I decide to take off all of my clothes and sometimes I don't. It's circular and there are velvet wooden seats all around. I get in and it goes down so fast, it's almost like a ride of some sort. I feel so free. I'm so happy to get away. I laugh. Going ahead a bit...when I watch myself on the hammock, I am floating so high above, I love to fly and I look so small in the hammock. I don't know. I love it though. I fall asleep a lot during this and don't reach it to the end anymore which bums me out.

              I love this, I had often wondered how others felt about the cd's. I have to admit, I liked them at first and then kind of got out of the routine. The man's voice put me off a little. I have since started them again and have tried really hard to completely "get into it".
              It's very interesting to hear about how others interpret their time in the elevator or on the hammock ect. I guess it might be kind of personal too but if anyone else want to share.

              Nice thread Det

                        We can always depend on Det to come up with a new angle. I'm ready for tonight's "exercise".
                        Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
