Resting Nerves Practice

Resting Nerves Practice

This is for someone.

Sometimes it can seem too monumental to do what we believe is ‘meditation’.

Because there would be a house to clean up.

Props to align.

Certain clothes to wear.

A mindset to embrace.

A lot of excuses.

You know what’s easier?

Reducing inputs.

What’s an input?

Simply, an input is anything that causes you to pay attention to your surroundings.

Sound.

Sight.

Movement.

RESTING NERVES PRACTICE

Ways To Remove Sound Input

  1. Close windows

  2. Add earplugs

  3. Turn off devices

Ways To Remove Visual Input

  1. Close curtains and/or blinds

  2. Close eyes

  3. Add eye mask

Ways to Remove Sensation Input

  1. Remove tight clothing

  2. Remove/reduce drafts

  3. Surround skin in soft, smooth fabric

See how you feel…

You might enjoy reducing one input, but not all.

NOTE:

**If you know that some sensory deprivation causes panic or anxiety, avoid this practice.

** If you are recovering from trauma and feel this could be triggering, avoid this practice and work with a trauma-informed therapist.

MORE RESOURCES

Other ways to remove inputs are float tanks/float therapy. I tried one out in LA but I can’t recommend the experience there. I believe there are better float tank options than the one I tried.

If you prefer more traditional meditation techniques, even supported ones that involve a guide, try out these meditation apps.

Learn how to create HUMAN NEST, a ‘zero gravity’ type set up in your own home.

You deserve Freedom.

Freedom from worry.
Freedom from pain.
Freedom from self-critique.
Freedom from the past.
Freedom from regret.
Freedom from comparison.
Freedom from fantasies of what might be.
Freedom from fear.

Freedom to enter the Now.
