I am looking for a herb that i can grow indoor, does not take too long in growing, and gives a relaxed effect. I have found one called "Valerian" but i am looking for other alternatives. i also require one that does not require a "container", and if it does, are they also able to grow in normal pots with mud?
What other types of herbs exist which gives a relaxation effect expect for illegal ones such as weed?
You can grow chamomile, but it has a very mild effect.
It was a guy with a soothing voice and the 5 min session was going from the roots to the leaves. It had only four or so tracks, purple and black cover, and there was like a 5 min 10 min and 20 min. I am desperately needing relaxation and that cd was perfect.
I don’t know the CD you are thinking of but there are plenty of great meditation CDs available online.
I have extreme difficulty urinating. I asked how should I resolve this. One of the answers was to relax. I have tried to relax before, but it didn’t work. Maybe I didn’t relax enough. How do I get into a very deep state of relaxation for my entire body?
What you’re describing does not sound like something that can be attributed to a lack of relaxation…an inability to urinate is often indicative of an enlarged prostate gland, which can be treated by medication if that is what you do have. I would strongly suggest seeing your primary care physician or a specialised urologist to see if this is what your problem is.

Does anyone have any ideas about great books on relaxation, calm uplifting ways of thinking, natural ways to relax, on how and why to be understanding of others, ways of getting what you want, ways of becoming calm after being raised in a violent or dysfunctional home??
Or any other books you suggest?
Its called "Astral Dynamics" by Robert Bruce
My boyfriend and I are wanting to stay at an all inclusive resort in Cabo for relaxation, good drinks, swim up bar and a variety of food. We are looking for a place where gratuities are included and you don’t have to tip to get a decent drink; also, a place where there aren’t any surprise charges. Is Dreams, which has a 79% rating, a good place to stay?
Hola. Dreams is really really nice for couples. If you want relaxation and great food/drinks, that is the place to go. You will probably realize with most all inclusives, cruise ships and other inclusion type place there will always be certain things you weren’t expecting. Just enjoy! The Barcelo is brand new and appears to have better food and better service. It’s about 10 minutes away from Dreams on a very large beach near the town of San Jose del Cabo which is quaint and interesting. Cabo is 20 minutes from both resorts.

there are a few books that might be an interesting read, one is called "Feeling Good" by David Burns. I’ve just started browsing it myself and it is basically about how to correct errors in our thinking -it’s like a road map to introspection and analysis of one’s thoughts and way of reaching conclusions..it teaches you tools to test your automatic thoughts, to ask for the evidence, to make sure you are not jumping to conclusions, generalizing etc…In short, it teaches one how to identify cognitive distortions and learn to recognize and correct them in the future.
For example, emotional reasoning is one such cognitive distortion people make. Let’s say a new teacher asks me a question and after I answer it, he basically criticizes my answer. I may conclude he doesn’t like me. But that is my FEELING, not fact! It is clear that logically I can’t read people’s minds and I can’t predict the future. What I am doing is I mistake my FEELINGS for the actual facts. I am jumping to conclusions about the whole thing.
My automated thought "the teacher doesn’t like me" needs to be tested: Why do I think that? Where is the evidence? Could there be an alternative explanation for the teacher’s behaviour and intentions? Is it really that bad or am I magnifying this even, making everything revolve around me? In reality, since there is no way to know what another person thinks, the teacher may have been trying to help you reach your full potential, b/c he knows you’re smart and he likes you. Or perhaps what you’ve perceived a s harsh criticism is what that teacher usually gives to everybody and he doesn;t even realize it..
there are many books I find interesting in the area of learning to think logically and avoiding having negative thoughts which are in fact not even supported by evidence and facts..
just my 2 cents
I read so many things about mediation and I’m not sure what EXACTLY it consist of. I understand the stress free relaxation mediation, but not the spiritual mediation?
Meditation is the path to enlightenment. One begins by choosing a meditation technique, which helps one to become more aware of one’s thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations. Over time, one’s awareness grows, and one becomes conscious of deeper and deeper levels of one’s being. Finally, the dew drop of the individual "I" drops into the ocean of cosmic consciousness, and enlightenment is attained.
I will not take any sleep medications or anti depressants. I know there must be a healthy way to defeat this.
Quiet Ears techniques:
Lie on your back with your eyes closed.
Place your hands behind your head. Make sure they are relaxed.
Place your thumbs in your ears so that you close the ear canal.
You will hear a high-pitched rushing sound. This is normal.
Listen to this sound for 10-15 minutes.
Then put your arms at your sides, actively relax them and go to sleep.
Take care as always!!
