It's surprising how easily we slip into routines which result in our lives being boring.
I would suggest that even small changes in how you do things can make an enormous difference.
If possible take a new way to the shops.
Sing in the bath.- If someone else has to bath you, ignore them, sing anyway.
Dance to some music you would normally
not listen to. If you can physically not dance then I would like
you to read the next bit very very slowly.
Close your eyes. Relax as completely as you can. Breath slowly and deeply. Visualise.
Visulise yourself tapping your toes to music. If you can't hear the music then visualise a beat
One two, One two, One two.
In your mind see yourself getting
up. Slowly, steady yourself and now start. Visualise yourself
moving around the room. Your feet are in perfect rythmn, Your
arms are up wafting with the music. Visualise each muscle
absorbing the beat of the music.
One two, One two, One two.
Remember to keep breathing, The
muscles are changing as you shift your weight. Your hips are
moving and your upper body is swaying.
One two, One two, One two. Hum to the
music. Feel the tension slipping away, first from your head, down
through your body and out through your toes. Gently a warm white
light is entering your body, caressing every muscle, every
bone. One two, One two, One two,
Continue until you feel you want
to rest and then very gently slow your body, relax, keep breathing and
give a contented sigh. Do this on a regular basis and your brain
will believe that you have really exercised and send a messsage to your
muscles which, together with the additional oxygen inhaled, will
refresh your body and uplift your spirits.
