This article reveals an easy to do exercise that helps create (and store) positive energy in your body leaving you feeling refreshed and revived. Now, if I said to you Act like a corpse! you would be forgiven for wondering if I needed help! Also, you may wonder what that has to do with energy creation. Well, it is the body position that is the key. It allows total relaxation and this permits us to focus on pulling in energy to our midsections and then, through the use of visualisation of certain colours, makes us spill over with radiant, positive, light. --------------------- POTENTIAL PROBLEMS --------------------- Many people try to relax or meditate in positions they see in films or on T.V. where the person is often kneeling, cutting off the blood supply to their legs, while being quietly introspective! This is a problem that need not exist. You dont have to kneel. You can stand. You can walk. You can lie. Ask yourself this question. How can I calm my mind and body if I am in pain? The answer is you cannot. So try the corpse pose for something that allows one to easily and quickly get into a meditative state. It allows a person to lie, totally at ease, and this leads to better, deeper, energy creation and thus makes it a great choice for many people. ----------------- THE CORPSE POSE ----------------- 1. Lie on your back somewhere that provides total comfort. 2. Have you eyes closed so you can easily begin to use your creative visualisation. 3. Inhale a light, vibrant, colour (of your own choosing) into your belly. Allow it to remain there even after your exhale. 4. With each subsequent inhale you add to this colour. 5. It fills all your body gradually. Approximately six breaths should suffice. 6. During the final couple of breaths feel and sense the energy spilling out of your body. You are immersed in it. 7. As you slowly come out of this meditation allow the energy to stay with you as you go about your day. Tim Webb 2006 |
