Guest guest Posted January 9, 2001 Report Share Posted January 9, 2001 Oh Sorcy, I *love* the duckie routine!!! It's just too cool, and so much more effective than all the bland, goodness-and-light, see-yourself-in-a-beautiful-meadow visualizations everyone else does. Like water off a duck's back, indeed! Quack quack, Laura > #2: Takes more practice, and is more convenient for those wusses out there who don't dare to do #1 > > I call it duckie routine. When altercation is over, or stress situation occurrs, take time out. No matter what (what are they gonna do, shoot you?) . Go to the bathroom if thats what it takes, but best is to take a step outside. Close your eyes. Visualize a beautiful mature duck (male/female > corresponding) floating on a calm, warm summer lake. As the duck begins its vigorious bathing (if you've ever seen them do it you know exactly what I mean) merge your personality/inner child/soul/concious with the animal. Remember, the duck is real, you've seen it last year (20 years ago), remember? > Still with eyes closed, feel the motion of dunking the > head and neck under the smooth, cooling water, emerging with a splash into an explosion of sunlight glittering of the droplets flying everywhere, feel the streams run down your body, and OFF YOUR BACK!!!!! Repeat as often as needed. Personally, I like to slightly imitate the rocking motions (hey, > nobody can see me, and if they can, who CARES???), flexing my shoulders.... after a few practice trials, I could get into the duck within seconds, smell the > water, feel the texture, and have its healing powers wash off the anger and the hurt. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
