Affirmations for Expanding Consciousness

During your listening session, repeating specific affirmations mentally to yourself can help to expand your awareness and assist you in attaining enhanced states of consciousness.

In your mind, repeat the following statements to yourself: "I am more than my physical body" and "I awaken myself to higher consciousness."

After repeating each affirmation to yourself several times, pause the repetition and reflect on what the underlying meaning of each affirmation is.

Open your mind to any images and impressions you may experience. These are messages from your subconscious mind, offering you details and suggestions for expanding your states of consciousness.

We recommend that this technique be used in conjunction with the Insight CD for relaxation, stress reduction, deep meditation, and many other benefits.

Breathing Technique: Belly Breathing

This breathing technique is designed to relax the body by making sure you are breathing as deeply as possible. Most people breathe by moving the chest rather than the diaphragm. Practicing the Belly Breathing technique will help you learn to breathe more deeply by moving the diaphragm.

Place a hand on your abdomen, below your navel. Inhale slowly and deeply, feeling your abdomen rise beneath your hand as you fill with air.

Exhale slowly, feeling your hand sink inward as you use your diaphragm to push the air out.

Continue to breathe this way, focusing on using your diaphragm instead of your chest to move the air in and out of your body.

We recommend that this technique be used in conjunction with the Insight CD for relaxation, stress reduction, deep meditation, and many other benefits.
