      Yesterday, I responded to mspeekay in the Insomnia Triggers thread and suggested she try to visualize herself sleeping through the night.

      At the risk of seeming like a flake, I googled “creative visualization” and found tons of information.

      I checked several websites and blogs and they all basically said the same thing.

      If you read the first section of this article, you can get the gist of the technique –

      Even if it doesn't help in any significant way, if it gets me doing something in the middle of the night other than folding laundry or just feeling frustrated and helpless, I'm willing to give it a try. 🙂

            First, that is the cutest animation I've seen in ages.

            Witches and other pagans & heathens do visualization exercises all the time in ritual.

            I've used visualization to attain an end, such as a dog who took off in a dangerous situation, to be found healthy later that day, before sundown. She was found pretty much as I envisioned.

            I've also used it to help someone heal faster or successfully.

            I never think to do it for myself! I've got heel surgery coming up, and I want to be on the fast curve of healing in order to walk and dance again, free of pain, by May 2011. I think I'll work on that.

                  I've tried this technique and it worked for me but it took a while ….

                  It was suggested to me by a friend ,,he told me to visualize my self relaxing starting with my right foot up my leg and so forth ,,,by the time I got to my left arm I felt relaxed and woke up the next morning ,,,it hasn't been consistent but it did help.
