Power of Imagination
Monday, June 22, 2009
Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.
—Albert Einstein
The following is an exercise from Chapter 6, Power of Imagination, of my new book, Back In Charge!
EXERCISE: Mental Health Break
Research from the Institute of HeartMath shows that experiencing pleasure or appreciation releases endorphins into the body, and five minutes of experiencing positive feelings is enough to counteract the toxic chemicals released during hours of stress! Within your brain, you easily have five minutes worth of pleasant memories. Flex your imagination muscles and heal your body by spending just five minutes a day recalling these great memories. Make it a regular part of your daily routine, maybe while commuting to work or brushing your teeth. Five pleasant minutes first thing in the morning will set you up for an endorphin-filled day. Five minutes at night will ensure a wonderful night’s sleep!
And, incorporating the power of your breath with this exercise will alow all these positive feelings to spread throughout your entire physiology! Remember to sign up for Dr. A's montly newsletter and then download a audio recording of Adrianne teaching you "How to Belly Breathe!"
