developing a trigger phrase/focus breathe in breathe out either: focus on neck & shoulders saying silently “neck, shoulders” or: focus on any general areas of tension without saying anything at this stage say “heavy”, deliberately releasing any tightness in in the neck & shoulders say “peace”, deliberately releasing any general tightness in the body

the practice for this week 1st week’s exercise: in the second half of the week, add in: The arms & legs are heavy The right arm is warm The left arm is warm Both arms are warm Neck & shoulders are heavy I am at peace The arms & legs are heavy Both arms are warm The right leg is warm The left leg is warm Both legs are warm Neck & shoulders are heavy I am at peace regular practice is crucial: two daily practices should be at least 10 to 15 min long; experiment too with a couple of short practices for just 2 or 3 minutes each seeing whether it is more helpful to use ”neck,shoulders heavy” or ”peace” as a trigger to link with the breath in developing skills in briefer relaxation exercises.
