Avoiding stress in your day to day life is a kind of impossible task. You work hard all day; you need to manage your home, work, kids, family, groceries, bills etc. trying to get everything done within just twenty four hours. So it is bound to happen that you feel burdened and tired. Maybe avoiding stress is not possible. But it is very much possible that you decrease your stress and tension. Guided meditation is a new scientific method of meditation which helps patients to release stress and relax. You already must be familiar with the benefits of meditation. New techniques and methods such as guided imagery are also largely helpful. In this guided imagery method, you need to look at some objects or pictures or even real life sceneries like a beach, waterfalls, clear blue skies, green meadows etc., when you see such images, your mind calms down. Your metabolism goes down and your whole system gets a break. This method has been even approved by doctors.
Along with guided imagery, take the help of relaxing sounds or music. Try MP3 healing meditation. You must know that some tapes are available which are specially designed to release stress. Instrumental music or some naturally recorded sound like the chirping of birds or free flowing water or the sounds of rain falling on the roof or ground, all this will help you imagine all these blissful sceneries. When you do that your mind relaxes, your breathing slows down and your blood pressure gets lowered. This method is called MP3 healing meditation.
Guided meditation works the best when you are in a room which is more or less noise free and dark. Lie down on your back and close your eyes. At the end of the day you become very tired, so try closing your eyes and forget about your problems. Breathe slowly and deeply. Try guided imagery with your mind’s eye. This will allow your system to shut down and prepare itself to fall asleep. When this happens, you would wake up in the morning totally refreshed ready to face another day.
