Practice this technique ONLY where it would be theoretically safe to fall asleep. Do something active afterward to completely guide yourself back before doing any activities such as driving. Do not even READ this section unless it would be theoretically safe for you to drift off or fall asleep at this time. Method One- Color progression . There are various levels of brain activity, beta, alpha, theta and delta are only a few Beta is the normal awake state.
Alpha is the light trance and relaxation state, before sleep for instance.
Theta and Delta are deeper forms of trance and sleep like states, with delta being associated with deep learning states. For instance, thinking of a stressful situation is naturally going to place one in a level at beta or above. As one imagines a relaxing scene, or thinks of a relaxing time, they will naturally re-enter an alpha sate. It is not necessary to be able to make images in one s mind, or to imagine pictures to do this, simply thinking about the individual colors will be enough. If one has a difficult time thinking of a color floating on its own, then simply think of something that IS that color and then think about the color floating off of it.
