Default How do YOU visualise?

I was just wondering what everyone techniques are to visualise successfully? I need help visualising you see. I cant seem to concentrate and my mind wanders. Please feel free to share some of your techniques. Preferably with body position and any relaxation techniques.

Thanks!

I used to really struggle to be able to deliberately get a visual image in my mind's eye. And after I did TIME Techniques for the first time, and released my stored up negative emotion, limiting decisions, and some outdated anchors, all of a sudden my imagination was like a living Peter Max poster -- overflowingly abundant, vibrant, vivid, and responsive to my conscious direction.

What you need to do is to know what you want to visualize. After you get clear on what you want to visualize, lie down or sit down in a comfortable position, then start focusing on what you want to accomplish or your goal. At first, if you are not used to it, you will have a hard time staying concentrating, but with practice, you will improve. Start focusing for 2 minutes for a few days. Then, you can increase it to 5 minutes and so on. If your mind wanders and I'm sure it will, just go back to seeing your image and focusing on what you want.

Read, this, it will help you,

Right now I've got two methods. First is just traditional visualizing, where I do my best to create in my mind a scene where I can see myself having the things I am intending--and to make sure I pretend I am that future self that has manifested it. I think of myself like an actor preparing for a role, I want to literally feel like that future self, right now. Act like he's taken over and I have traveled in time to the future, leapfrogging whatever time may have occurred between now and that future date.

Another method is I have written out on a few sheets of paper a more detailed picture of how I'd like my life to be, it starts by detailing my future self's day from the moment I wake up till I go to sleep at night. So if I'm having trouble seeing in my mind's eye the details for traditional visualization, at least reading the words in my script subconsciously creates some images that my mind's eye can see.

It was hard for me at first because I kept closing my eyes. I'm better with my eyes open kind of daydreaming. If I'm having trouble I'll think of a memory and transfer the ability to recall that image into visualizing something new.

Hey thanks for the reply. I do have a question however. Do you see yourself in 3rd person or 1st person?

Here’s an experiment for you. Go back to your first memory and dwell on it for a short while… Did your eyes move in a certain direction? Or did you feel your own mind sift back through itself? Let’s try again, think back to another important event that happened about 10 years ago, where did your focus move to in order that you could locate that memory?

In case you do not understand this technique… think of an event that you would like to happen in the future… Again, how did your eyes move? Did your focus shift to the front side of your brain in order to locate this?

Do you see the difference of how your mind processes past and future events?

There is a system to this madness 

This is your timeline… If you want to remember a past event you travel back along it… if you close your eyes you can probably imagine the shape of this line, it doesn’t have to be straight, it can bend and swerve, it’s your line…

But of course this line moves forward too… so using certain techniques, you can sit back and close your eyes, travel forward, visualise, and plant the seeds of your future change…

Both, it just depends on what I'm visualizing. If I'm looking to have the feeling of being somewhere, then it's first person. But if I want visual details of myself in a larger surrounding then for me it's easier to switch to third person. So I guess I prefer and even amount of both.

It's not just "visuals" for me. I get into other sensations as well - scents and physical sensations and sounds - that help the whole thing feel "real".

Like, say I am imagining a *person* (a romantic partner because I have probably done more "love" visualizations than any other kind, in the past), I will imagine their scent, the feel of their hands, sound of their voice.

I might also imagine other things in the scene... scent of night blooming jasmine as we're walking, sound of the surf... just for a few examples.

If I'm visualizing a job, I might smell and hear the brewing coffee in the break room in the morning, hear people sliding their key-cards, the smell of the new carpet, static of that carpet, feel of my swivel chair...

You can also do things to "anchor" your visualization in the here and now. Say, if you're visualizing the job (and it's a cubicle or office type of job) - buy a plant then in your visualization "work space" in your mind, imagine bringing the plant to work and putting it on your desk.

Also, I let some things come spontaneously and don't always try to "force" a visualization to go a certain way. Sometimes my subconscious mind comes up with a better idea than I consciously had or signals to me, "hey, you need to work on this, first".

Default Another way to visualise...

Hey there,

Since I know that it is not that easy for everyone to see their dream life, I would like to show you the site me and some fellow workers made.... We started making that sort of photo collages for fun and for friends. We really enjoy making them and our friends find them really amusing and they usually ask us to do more... When we made the site, some people around us just joked about that, but we don't care, because we love doing photo manipulations ..

I've been in that forum some time ago and I just wanted to share this technique with you...I'd love to do some photo collages for the members of the forum for free, since we are just seeing about how people will respond to the idea for now..

Women have always been more interested in our photo manipulations, since physical appearance is usually of greater importance for us, but we can also make guys look rich

The link is www.yourdreamyou.com

P.S. Some of the photos on the site are taken from fan sites and are simply fan art uploaded just for an example of what we do roughly.

Take care and tell me what you think!

I do better with my eyes open, for some reason...like I go into this daydreaming mode of alpha. With eyes close it becomes a struggle though...sometimes it worked, other times it doesn't.

Roxyruby helped me to see myself in my dream apartment and reality with the help of photoshop...

Ya, I know...it didn't work out the way I wanted, so I deleted the whole thing. It won't let me paste it onto the post page?? I tried doing it one by one...but it never works for me...I've been trying this for AGES on this forum, with no luck. Guess I'll get it eventually...

Default Walking and dreaming

Hi there! Here is what works very well for me: walking. For whatever reasons, my mind becomes very active when my body is active. I take advantage of these moments to visualize. During fitness sessions, I try to focus all my energy on my body, so I cannot visualize then. But if I only walk, them I move and I can visualize.

Today, I did what I call "The Love Road". I listened to music (music being the easiest stimulator for me) and walked for about two hours alongside the river. During this time, I focused on feelings of love, sending and receiving love. I was thinking in particular about one person to whom I am attracted and at some point I met his friend on my Love Road I also met a couple with whom I had an issue and which I have to make peace with.

Results? Walked two hours (good for your body), brainstormed, put some order in my feelings, had a very nice nap afterwords

You can start with a classic method and during time I am sure that you will come up with the method which is best for you.

Good luck!

You need to calm and still your mind, before you start visualising.

Usually young nine tailed fox boy,

I close my eyes, channel my chakra and focus onto my konoha headband... images of ramen.

Practice enough times and you might be capable of making shadow clones. I've done it a few times.
