First Journey on Relaxation

Hello Everyone!! Blogging is completely new to me so I hope you enjoy going on this journey with me.  So, I just listened to my very first ever relaxation audio track.  I have listened to soothing sounds, for instance running water or my personal favorite, the ocean, but I have never listened to someone talking in a soothing voice helping you to relax.  With that being said, I listened to an exercise on "Journey On relaxation."  Being a full time student, working full time, and being a single mother of two doesn't leave you much time to just sit back and relax.  I couldn't wait to lay back and let the speaker lull me into a relaxed state.  I was actually a little surprised that it worked as well as it did.  I know that power of suggestion can be very strong, but I still had my doubts.  It did help however that my daughters were spending the night at their father's and I didn't have a lot of background noise to distract me!!!  After completing the exercise, I felt a little more energized and focused.  I really believe that I will enjoy this new journey and take away a lot of techniques that will benefit me for years to come.
