---

The session starts with an introduction to the exercise, emphasizing readiness and the commencement of a relaxation method referred to as the "three to one method." This method is a countdown technique designed to bring the listener into a progressively deeper state of relaxation.

1. Initiation: The listener is instructed to find a comfortable position, close their eyes, and focus on their breathing. This phase involves deep breaths accompanied by the mental repetition and visualization of numbers, starting from three and counting down to one, with each number repeated three times to deepen relaxation.

2. Physical Relaxation: The speaker guides the listener to relax various parts of the body in sequence, starting from the scalp and moving down to the feet. This process is intended to bring the listener to a "level three" of physical relaxation, where the body reaches a deeper, healthier state of mind. The listener is encouraged to use the visualization of the number three to return to this state of relaxation in the future.

3. Mental Relaxation: At "level two," achieved through the visualization of the number two, the focus shifts to mental relaxation. Here, the presence of external noises is framed as an aid rather than a distraction, further deepening relaxation. The listener is advised to practice visualizing tranquil scenes to enhance this state.

4. Deeper Levels of Relaxation: The listener is encouraged to use a countdown deepening exercise (counting backward from a starting point like 25, 50, or 100 to 1) to reach even deeper levels of relaxation and maintain control over their faculties at all times.

5. Practice Recommendations: The speaker suggests times and durations for practicing these relaxation techniques, emphasizing their potential health benefits, especially for those with health issues.

6. Exiting Relaxation: Instructions are provided on how to emerge from the relaxed state, ensuring the listener feels refreshed, healthy, and better than before.

7. Advanced Visualization and Affirmations: The latter part of the session focuses on using the mind's power for personal development, health, and service to humanity. This includes preventing negative thoughts and conditions, improving physical and mental health, and extending one's sensing faculties beyond the immediate physical environment for the benefit of humanity. The session concludes with a series of positive affirmations and statements emphasizing compassion, understanding, and the aspiration to contribute positively to the world.

8. Conclusion: The session ends with a count from one to five, signifying the listener's return to a state of wakefulness, feeling refreshed and in perfect health, with a reminder of the benefits of the practice and encouragement to continue feeling "better and better."

This breakdown condenses the essence and structure of the guided session, focusing on the progression from initial relaxation to deeper states of mind, the incorporation of physical and mental relaxation techniques, the importance of regular practice, and the session's overarching goal of improving well-being and utilizing mental faculties for positive outcomes.

The Transcript...

Are you ready? We will begin this exercise with the three to one method. Find a comfortable seated position, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and while exhaling, mentally repeat and visualize the number three three times. Take another deep breath, and while exhaling, mentally repeat and visualize the number two three times. Take another deep breath, and while exhaling, mentally repeat and visualize the number one three times. And you are at level one, the basic level that you can use for any purpose that you desire.

Here now, we're going to help you learn to enter the physical relaxation level 3. To help you learn to relax physically at level three, I'm going to direct your attention to different parts of your body. Relax your scalp, relax your forehead, relax your eyes, relax your face, relax your throat, relax your shoulders, relax your chest, externally and internally. Relax your abdominal area externally and internally. Relax your thighs, relax your knees, relax your calves, relax your feet. You are now at a deeper, healthier level of mind, deeper than before. This is your physical relaxation level three. Whenever you mentally repeat and visualize the number three, your body will relax as completely as you are now and more so every time you practice.

To enter mental relaxation level 2, mentally repeat and visualize the number 2 several times. And you are at level two, a deeper level than three. Level two is for mental relaxation where noises will not distract you. Instead, noises will help you to relax more and more. To improve mental relaxation and level 2, practice visualizing tranquil and passive scenes.

To enter the basic plane level 1, mentally repeat and visualize the number 1 several times. You are now at level one, the basic level that you are learning to use for a purpose, any purpose you desire. To enter deeper, healthier levels of mind, practice with the countdown deepening exercises. To deepen, count downward from 25 to 1, or from 50 to 1, or from 100 to 1. When you reach the count of 1, you will have reached a deeper, healthier level of mind, deeper than before. You will always have full control and complete dominion over your senses and faculties at all levels of the mind, including the outer conscious level.

The best time to practice the countdown deepening exercises is in the morning when you wake up. Remain in bed for at least five minutes practicing the countdown deepening exercises. The second best time to practice is at night when you are ready to retire. The third best time to practice is at noon after lunch. Five minutes of practice is good, ten minutes is very good, 15 minutes is excellent. To practice once a day is good, two times a day is very good, and three times a day is excellent. If you have a health problem, practice for 15 minutes three times a day.

To come out of any level of the mind, mentally count to yourself from one to five and tell yourself that at the count of five you will open your eyes, be wide awake, feeling fine and in perfect health, feeling better than before. Then proceed to count slowly from one to two, then to three, and at the count of three, mentally remind yourself that at the count of five you will open your eyes, be wide awake, feeling fine and in perfect health, feeling better than before. Proceed to count slowly to four, then five. At the count of five, and with your eyes open, mentally tell yourself, "I am wide awake, feeling fine and in perfect health, feeling better than before." And this is all.

To help you enter a deeper, healthier level of mind, I am going to count from 10 to 1. On each descending number, you will feel yourself going deeper, and you will enter a deeper, healthier level of mind. Ten, nine, feel going deeper, eight, seven, six, deeper and deeper, five, four, three, deeper and deeper, two, one. You are now at a deeper, healthier level of mind, deeper than before. You may enter a deeper, healthier level of mind by simply relaxing your eyelids. Relax your eyelids. Feel how relaxed they are. Allow this feeling of relaxation to flow slowly downward throughout your body, all the way down to your toes. It is a wonderful feeling to be deeply relaxed, a very healthy state of being.

To help you enter a deeper, healthier level of mind, I'm going to count from one to three and cause a sound with my fingers. At that moment, you will project yourself mentally to your ideal place of relaxation. I will then stop talking to you, and when you next hear my voice, one hour of time will have passed at this level of mind. One, two, three. Project yourself mentally to your ideal place of relaxation until you hear my voice again.
