Auditory PMR

When you're ready make yourself comfortable, take a deep breath and close your eyes. All you can hear is the sound of my voice, any other sounds you hear will start to fade as you listen to the sound of my voice. You will start to become relaxed. More relaxed than you have been before. This is just for you, there is no one who needs anything from you and you can start to feel at ease with yourself.

I want you to try and tune into your body to start to relax. Listen to each part of this PMR and notice how your body will slowly become more and more relaxed. When you hear me mention the different parts of the body I want you to notice any tension in that area disappear.

Let's start with your head, notice how that tension around your forehead.........eyebrows...... eyes....... Checks...... lips...... and chin... disappears as you start to become more relaxed and comfortable. If you feel your eyelids twitching, don't worry try and let them relax as much as you can. Moving down now to your neck, Notice those muscles relax; let the relaxation run down your spin. You can feel all the weight being lifted off your shoulders and notice how comfortable and relaxed you are. Move down now to your Arms, relax the muscles in your arms, your arms may be feeling light or very heavy now. As you relax notice this relaxation go slowly through your arms to your hands and right to finger tips.

You are now starting to be more deeply relaxed. Notice how safe and peaceful you are.

Moving down now to your thighs and hips, notice how they feel comfortable and relaxed. Let that relaxation slowly tipple through your muscles down your legs and to the tips of your toes. You are totally relaxed. Enjoy the feeling of being totally relaxed.

Now I want you to picture in your mind a special place. A place you can go to when it is safe to do so, that makes you happy and relaxed. A place where you feel free as a bird to do what makes you happy. Try hearing the sounds of the birds singing or the sounds of the deep see slowly reaching the shore, all you can hear is the sound of the sea and the singing birds above you. Listen to the sounds of the soft sand tricking thro your fingers and toes. Whilst you are concentrating on the sounds you can hear focus on the warm sea breeze working its way around your body, making you feel comfort, warmth, and harmonious. While you listen to the sounds of the sea and feel the sand between your fingers and toes, you hear a beautiful bird singing and you feel a connection with this bird. You hear this bird from a distance and then the noise gets closer and closer and before you know it the bird is by your side. You are happy and content to be near it. You hear this bird's lovely song for a while and notice how comforting it is to be so close. Then this wonderful
