Do you take time for genuine enjoyment on a daily basis? If not, don't wait another minute to bring more pleasure into your day. Try this simple five-step exercise for a month and experience 5 powerful lifetime benefits.
Finding time becomes much easier when you enjoy the time you find. "Finding Time for Your Ideal Day" is a favorite visualization, because in 15 minutes, you not only identify what brings you the most pleasure, you start living it out. So start today:
One: Every day for a month, reserve 15 minutes for this exercise. Select time when you will be uninterrupted. If needed, divide this exercise into 3 five-minute segments.
Two: Sit back and relax for the first 5 minutes. Imagine your ideal day. In 5 minutes, you can imagine a lot! Picture yourself awakening, stretching luxuriantly, and starting your ideal day. What are you doing? How are you feeling? The more vivid your imagination, the better! Sense the sounds, the tastes, the smells, and the sights as the day unfolds before you. Most important of all, allow yourself to fully experience the pleasure!
Three: In the next 5 minutes, pick out portions of this ideal day when you are alone or enjoying your animal companion. You are selecting this set of images because they are completely within your power to bring about, without others' participation.
Four: Identify a five-minute time slice that you can duplicate today. Pick an activity you don't generally engage in, or one you don't allow yourself to fully enjoy.
Five: Take the third 5-minute segment and do it. Let yourself be totally in the moment. Pick the time of day when it will be easiest for you, and when this activity (or lack of activity) will mean the most to you.
Does this seem simple? It is! Yet participating in this "actualizing visualization" rewards you with 5 significant benefits:
Benefit One: You develop your powers of visualization. You can draw upon this skill any time to relax, boost your creativity and even encourage healing. And it doesn't take much time.
Benefit Two: You become clearer about what time choices truly reward you. The more frequently you visualize, the more of an expert you become about what time choices you actually enjoy. Learn what truly makes you happy, which will be different than anyone else's 'pleasure profile".
Benefit Three: In just fifteen minutes a day for a month, you create a pattern that's easy to maintain. A month of continuous daily practice establishes a new life pattern. What an easy way to add daily pleasure to your life!
Benefit Four: You prove your power to improve your life through basic time choices. Nothing helps foster self-reference like experiencing simple pleasures you provide yourself.
Benefit Five: You cultivate the gift of being in the moment. You'll experience firsthand how this focus stretches time and multiplies your capacity for enjoyment.
It works if you work.
