Forest Walk Relaxation – Let this gentle, permissive hypnosis session take you deep into relaxation and tranquility
Would you believe that taking a walk in the woods or in a forest could have a measurable effect on your health and well-being?
Sometimes, serious academic research is needed to conclusively prove what we've suspected all along. For example, scientists have shown that nature is good for you – and even imagining walking in a forest is good for you!
Nature is good for your health – fact!
Researchers in Pennsylvania established that patients made faster recoveries after surgery, with less need for pain-killers, when they could see grass and trees from their hospital bed.
In contrast, patients who could only see a brick wall from their windows made slower recoveries, and needed more help with pain. (1) And remember, we're just talking about seeing the green trees in the distance – not even being among them!
Relaxation is good for your health – fact!
So spending time in a natural environment is good for you, and it's a good idea to get out there as much as you can. Fair enough.
But did you know that scientists have also established something that isn't quite so obvious as the benefits of nature – the benefits of deliberate, daily, deep relaxation? That is, not just going for a walk, but actively engaging your mind in the practice of relaxation?
Dean Ornish, director of the Preventive Medicine Research Institute in San Francisco, showed that relaxation training improves blood flow to the heart. He also found that relaxation lowers cholesterol and reduces the severity of angina attacks. (2) Other researchers have found similar benefits for other conditions.
You don't have to wait till you're sick to benefit from relaxation
Of course, the subjects of all this research already had serious chronic health conditions or acute illnesses. Imagine what extra benefits a healthy person can draw from learning how to relax really well.
Imagine what it would be like to combine the benefits of profound relaxation with the benefits of the natural surroundings of a beautiful forest.
Hypnosis can bring the forest – and the relaxation – to you
Forest Walk Relaxation is an audio hypnosis session which offers you the opportunity to enjoy and learn really deep relaxation techniques using the imagery of a wonderful magical forest.
Forest Walk Relaxation will carry you effortlessly away into a peaceful internal space where you can really recharge your batteries and get all the benefits those scientists were talking about while you have fun.
