How do you relax?

You are welcome. Such relaxations are time consuming and free of cost. What more can one ask. Keep it up and do not get rattled if I provoke you sometimes. It is all in good fun and without any malice.

I take your provocations lightheartedly. They are never taken seriously. I assure you.

Provocations?  Are you kidding me?

Edit.. Sorry that wasn't addressed to me.. I mistook that.

Oh.. some thing went wrong. Sorry, my response was meant for Vijay, who often provokes me.

Visualization is also an effective technique to relax within a short time. I used to do this when I was working full time. It used to help me a lot from the pressures of work. 

I could do that for hours together if given a chance , frankly, there is no end to to it, you can jump from one imagination to the other and the best way to tune your brain is to try and get back in the same order as you started ! Am I making sense Sofs??

Visualizing as if you are relaxing helps a lot. One feels and enjoys the same benefit as that of real relaxing

Perfect sense. It takes a few seconds to calm you down when you train your mind. I agree .. when you focus it properly you can do it for hours. Initially of course  its good tom have some guidance on audio or in person.

Yes I agree..Our mind is so very complex and if trained can do so much for us !

One who can train his brain like a master can make the brain work to his diktats. Otherwise you become a slave in the control of the Brain.

Usha, I would like to mention that a recent study also shows that we can 'grow muscles' by harnessing the power of the brain. So their is nothing we cannot do if only we used the power of thought in the right direction. 

Exactly. There nothing impossible by believing. Belief moves mountains

True, in fact by channelising our brain , we may be able to achieve what seems impossible otherwise. People like mobile computer Shakuntala Devi, and someone called Professor Richter who could converse in 75 languages have been able to use the capacity to the maximum extent possible !

Great examples there Usha, Our own Sakutha Devi was a perfect example of harnessing the power of the brain. Although I am not aware of this prof Richter you mention I am aware of Powell Janulus who holds the Guinness record for fluency in 42 languages.

Sofs I am quoting from the link ..

Orgulous Potentials Hidden In The Human Body

Mobile Computer’ Shakuntala Devi’s arithmetical wonders had been quite popular until recently. Few years ago, a six years old boy Ashok, of Vijaygram, Karnataka had also stunned the media by demonstrating supernormal talents of Mathematics. He could solve complicated calculations in just few seconds...! Mastering over a single foreign language would take not less than a decade for average people... However, there do exist exceptional brains like that of Prof. French Alexander Richter, which could converse and have literary expertise in as many as seventy-seven languages

Wow that is amazing talent.. 77 languages and its says literary expertise too.  Thanks for the links.I appreciate this very much. Now its time to read those.
