Stress as a Storm - A visualization to help you through high stress situations

This visualization meditation is a tool to help you through high stress and chaos.  This mediation is a reminder that with mindful breathing and allowing yourself to become an observer instead of a participant in stressful situations, you can overcome these situations before they completely overwhelm you. Practice this meditation to remind yourself that stress is temporary and you will get through it.  Produced by Kim Comer-Harris and Charles DePaolo

Three Mindful Breaths

When we become overwhelmed we have a tendency to take shallow breaths or hold our breath completely.  This is a quick reminder that your breath is your most valuable tool to release stress and calm the nervous system. Use these three mindful breaths as often as you need to relax your body. It may feel hard at first to inhale and exhale deeply but the more you practice the easier it will get.

Relaxation for Better Sleep

Calming Beach Visualization for Anxiety and Stress

The purpose of this visualization is to take you to a place that completely absorbs your attention and distracts you away from anxious thoughts. As you become entrenched in the scene you will deepen your state of relaxation and will notice physiological changes. Your muscles will become less tense, your heart rate will slow and your breathing will be even giving you an overall relaxed feeling.
