Positive. Accepting and accepted because this is your time for complete relaxation. You're in a great place now but you know you can relax, even deeper into the deepest level. And in your mind's eye, you imagine yourself on a grassy bank by a beautiful stream and it's so pleasant there. The temperature is just right, blue sky.

The grass is so green beneath your toes when you look around. And look at the nice trees, there's some peaceful animals, eating the grass and playing around. It's definitely a beautiful landscape. with lushish trees in the distance because this is your time in your space with this beautiful clear water it's not very deep

you can see the bottom mean and inviting and by the bank you see a small boat and inside a reclining chair that looks very kind

and you decide to move the boat to the edge of the stream and get in to the comfortable chair. You can recline as much as possible. See the wonderful nature around you. Sets off, you begin to float downstream. You look at the sky and you see a couple of clouds. like cotton wool floating about as you gently it's so relaxing to flow this way the stream of serenity

up ahead you see that the stream descends very slightly gentle little drops there to go down these drops and as you approach the first one You drop gently and you feel even more relaxed as you do so. The second one, the second one, it goes down. This drop, like the first, and as you go down you feel like you're going even deeper into a deeper level of relaxation.

Hear the little splashes and the sound of the stream and the peaceful noises of nature and you approach the next two drops and you go deeper down into the next one feeling so relaxed and into the next one feeling easy and it feels so good

and finally you can see the next one and when you go down this drop this last drop you feel the most relaxed you've ever felt it feels wonderful and the boat

then gently bulbs along until it stops the boat gently pulls up to a small jetty and you decide to get off

lay down by the side of the stream and close your eyes and imagine a place a safe place this could be your safe place next to this trunk or stream or maybe a place you imagine your safe and special place.

You can either get up and explore this safe and special place or you can remain lined down is entirely but this is your space, a safe place you can return to whenever, wherever you wish to, take some time. You begin to realise and acknowledge force of calm, peace and well-being is positive to you. This beautiful feeling of relaxation takes over this lovely feeling is better than any worries you might have about yourself. or the world. You realise that you need to trust in your own instincts. You realise that over-worrying is not good or healthy

and a positive outlook on life is so much healthier. Being positive about your outlook way forward to improve. to improve your mindset. You may have convinced your mind that some of these negative feelings were real, even deep down, that they were against. Your better judgment,

you might have blown things or out of proportion, giving yourself negative thoughts. It's just not right, especially, when it could be about your future aspects of your life. These little things can take root in your mind and can grow and occupy your thoughts and make you worry. And you seek the assurances.

Now you know that you will have a healthy mindset requires a healthy mind, a healthy mind and vice versa. Think about that, your uncertainty. It can make you feel negative. You will just focus your mind now on positives going forward. You cannot control. There could be a few external forces

at the moment, which gives you a warrant to think negatively. But there is no purpose. It's keep having a positive mindset.

you realise a lot of them are unnecessary and what is the point of worrying about something that may never happen and may be out of your control but one thing you can control is the peace and calm you have inside you.

You look at the paper and you realise these worries are unnecessary and don't help. The worry does not help. You take the paper and scrunch it into a tight ball and you crush the paper into your palm.

Happening or unfolding right in front of you. In as much detail as you can to that item down as number two on your list. and be sure to remember it. Now think of the third item that brings you happiness in as much detail as possible. Imagine it right in front of you even if you don't feel

that you've had enough time to imagine it for very long. Keep in mind that you're able to come back to this mental list any time you like so write it down on your list this is number three
