Introduction to Focus 10

Focus 10 is a level in which your mind remains awake and alert while your body sleeps calmly and comfortably. Follow the instructions, focusing upon and then totally releasing each body part. Your body knows how to do this and to “look with your closed eyes” as you move towards profound relaxation. One of the paradoxes of “mind awake, body asleep” is the possibility of heightened sensitivity: awareness that the pores of your skin breathe, hearing the swish of blood flow behind your ears, feeling your heart beat. Spontaneous remote sensing is also possible: hearing sounds you would swear you are hearing this time but not the last time, or perceiving faraway, delicate odors. Place all expectations in your box, relax, and simply go with whatever you are experiencing. Health Affirmation at the end of each exercise helps you balance physical and nonphysical energies. Know that it is working for you without effort on your part.

Focus 10

In Focus 10, the 10-State your mind remains awake and alert; your body is calmly, deeply, and comfortably asleep. You will move into this state of total relaxation by first moving to Focus 3, and then by letting various parts of your face and head progressively go limp and relax. This relaxation of your head will then „flow into your brain,” which will feel and understand such a state, and will in turn allow such relaxation to flow through your whole body. Move along with the instructions, successively focusing upon and then totally releasing each body part. To „look with your closed eyes” at your foot is a way to view it objectively, thus creating a sense of detachment. Your body knows how to do this. The count to Focus 10 will continue. From four to ten, at each successive count you will relax another part of your physical body. One of the paradoxes of „body asleep,” or total relaxation, and „mind awake,” is the possibility of sudden heightened sensitivity: hearing the swish of arterial blood flow behind your ears, or feeling the pores of your skin breathe. Spontaneous remote sensing is another possibility in Focus 10: audio material you would swear was actually on the tape this time, but not last time, or the total presence of faraway, delicate odors.

Health Affirmation

When you return to full, waking reality, your body will be so equalized as to overcome all those things that might hinder or prevent it from being and giving its best mental, spiritual, and physical self... This is the beginning of the Health Affirmation that you will hear at the end of these exercises. It will help you balance your physical and nonphysical energies. Know that the affirmation is working for you without effort on your part.
