Did you read a book in a peaceful spot last week? If reading is not your thing, another way to take a mental vacation, according to Sally Connolly, a therapist at the Couples Clinic of Louisville, is to visualize relaxation. Though this might sound daunting, it’s pretty easy. Take a few moments to close your eyes and visualize an image or place that relaxes you (i.e., sound of ocean waves, country field filled with beautiful flowers, a gurgling brook). Think back to a time when you felt relaxed and peaceful, and once you “are there,” try to release the tension from your head to your toes. By visualizing a stress-free place, you can mentally return to that place and help your body relax.
