Take a deep breath. and then let go.

Breathe deep. In and out. In and out. When you inhale, feel the air filling up your lungs and your chest. When you exhale, imagine that you're blowing out something more that nitrogen and CO2. Imagine that all the negative things in your life are getting pushed out too. Now take another deep breath, and just hold it. While you wait for your body to make you exhale and inhale again, try to imagine that your mind isn't stuck in your head. Cast yourself out of your cranium and spread out over your body. Feel each hair, each nerve ending, and each cell. Feel your heart beating. Feel the blood coursing through your veins. Feel the microcontractions your muscles make to maintain your posture. Then exhale. Inhale again. Take a few breaths and bring your mind back to your skull. Inhale, Exhale. Inhale and hold. This time push your mind our of your body entirely. Let it float away on the breeze. Steer it down to the ground and check out the randomness of the dirt. Push it through a wall. Then pull it back to you. Breathe again. Close your eyes, and stop thinking. See where your mind takes you. It might be interesting...

  1. I am saving this post and showing to the nearest person I find under the influence. I just felt like my face melt reading this post. At first I was like "Oh, that reminds me of the meditation Mr. Flack taught us back during Freshman year." Then I read on and I was all like "What is this I don't even..." I think had I been under the influence while reading this I would have followed it like step by step directions. then proceeded to freak out as the experience began.
