(1) Sit or lay in a place where you will not be disturbed for at least ten minutes. Remember to unplug the phone. Get comfortable. Your arms and legs should not be crossed. If you're sitting, your back should be straight; rest your hands, palms down, in your lap. Close your eyes.

　　在一個至少幾分鐘內不會受到打擾的地方坐下或躺下，並記得關掉電話跟手機。讓自己保持舒服的姿勢，並注意你的雙手與雙腳不應該呈交叉的姿勢。當你坐下時，記得把腰打直。舉起你的雙手並把它放在膝蓋上，然後閉上眼睛。


(2) Visualize a golden ball of beautiful, warm light surrounding your feet. The ball of golden warm light always brings peace and total relaxation. Wherever the ball goes, tension departs. Let it go, and as it goes, feel your feet filled with the warm, golden glow of peace and total relaxation.

　　視覺化（或想像）一顆溫暖漂亮的金色光球正圍著雙腳旋轉。感覺金色光球那溫暖的光，總是帶來平和的感覺與肉體上完全的放鬆。去感覺光球所經過的地方，所有的緊繃將會消失而去。試著去讓光球移動，當它移動時，感覺你的腳部充滿了溫暖的，平和的金色白光，並且得以完全的放鬆。


(3) Now allow this ball of light to rise up your legs and up to your torso. Then allow it to go down your arms to your fingers, and finally up to your neck and into your head until you are completely covered with the warm, golden glow of total peace and relaxation, and all tension is gone. If you notice tension anywhere, send the ball there and the tension will vanish.

　　現再讓光球上升到你的身體，並讓它沿著你的手臂往下到你的手指，然後再往上經過你的頸部，到達你的頭部，直到你完全的被光球所帶來的溫暖的，金色平和的光所包圍而得以放鬆，並且讓所有的緊繃消失而去。如果你察覺到身體上有哪個地方有所緊繃，把光球送到該處而緊繃將會隨之而逝。


(4) Stay in this state of deep relaxation for a few moments. (Don't fall asleep!)

　　保持這個完全深層的放鬆至少幾分鐘（但注意不要睡著！）。


(5) When you're ready to come out of this state of deep relaxation, take three deep breaths and feel fresh life and energy coming into your body with each breath.

　　當你準備好要脫離這種深層放鬆的狀態時，深呼吸三次並且感覺到新鮮的生命力與能量將會隨著深呼吸而進入你的身體。


　　Now that you can return to this state whenever you like simply by doing this relaxation ritual. If you're having trouble sleeping, try this ritual when you lay down at night instead of suffering or taking sleeping pills. Be at one with yourself.

　　現在每當你去進行這個儀式時，你將會回到這種（深層放鬆）的狀態。如果你有睡眠上的困擾，試試看在夜晚躺下時去進行這個儀式以代替讓身體勞累或是服用安眠藥的方式。（這個儀式）可以讓你身心一致。
