How to Coach Yourself and Others Better Coaching Through Visualisation | Page 29
Tips and Tricks
- Try drawing a circle in the sand with you safely inside. No one can
sneak up on you from behind.
- When you are ready to broaden your safe area, imagine the ocean
tides coming to shore and washing away your drawn line. Now
move back and draw a new line that gives you more space.
Return to sender with love
Sandra Ingerman, author of How to Heal Toxic Thoughts, suggests
deflecting harmful energies by using this intentional visualization.
Similarly to refusing the delivery of an unwanted postal package by
scribbling the words "Return to Sender" across the box, whenever
you feel you are the target of negativity imagine the harmful
energies locked safely inside an unopened box. Then visualize
yourself writing the words "Return to Sender with Love" while
infusing love energies into the container. Finally, imagine that you
are dropping it into the nearest mailbox for pickup. Not only will
you be sending the energies back to where they originated from, but
you will have transformed the energies into loving vibrations. In this
way you are protecting yourself from harm, defusing lethal toxicity,
and refusing to exasperate a negative situation.
Tips and Tricks
If you have trouble visualizing try to think of your meditation as a
blank canvas. You are the artist. Be your own creator.
Visualize the landscape that relaxes you best (beach, forest,
mountains, desert oasis, etc.).
On the other hand, if no visual images come to mind, try focusing on
a different sensation. For instance, imagine hearing fish frying in a
skillet or smelling wild flowers in a meadow.
