Looking for some ways to ease your mind so you can sleep at night? Look no further, because illume-emag might have just the thing for you.
We have all, more or less, been through stressful days. The pressure of work, family, and life itself weighs down on us in some way, repeating itself as if the cycle were never to end, and that stresses you out. You’re in luck because there are tricks and methods to help you break free from some of the intentions, one of which is the Emotional Reset Method, or ERM, developed by Robin Emmerich.
What is ERM?
ERM is a 5-step technique helping you to identify sources causing stress, anxiety, fear, and pain deep within you. Then it aids you on the path of finding inner peace, returning the “good old days” back to you.
Just 5 minutes of full concentration, and the worry will bother you no more.
Step 1: Taking a breather and focus on the current emotion.
Before you can find out what caused the stress, you have to let your mind and body merge as one. Why? It is for you to calm yourself, to separate yourself from the busy outside world. You can’t listen to your body and soul if all you hear is the phone ring tone. Now stop what you are doing, find somewhere comfy to sit, relax your arm and shoulder, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and slowly count to 5. This will calm you down and help you hear your inner self.
Step 2: Describing your feelings.
Now that you are calm, ask yourself, how are you feeling? Happy, angry, worried, or empty? Don’t blame yourself for having negative feelings. The key to step 2 is to relax and be honest with yourself so that you can tap into specific emotions and feelings flooding you. Are you worried, scared, or exhausted? That “ocean” of yours, slowly sinks in, feel and describe it.
Step 3: Locating the stress.
Have you ever been so panicked that your stomach and breathing became cramped? It is the physical representation of the feelings that have been suppressed. Try to discover and pinpoint that feeling in your body.
Step 4: Linking the stress to a color.
After you know where the stress is, picture it in color. Is it dark blue? Or is the fear that bears the color light purple? Each person has their own shade of feelings. You need only to be calm and focused, then you will see what color your feelings are repressed.
Step 5: Allowing the stress to fade.
When the stress gets named, located, and appears in color, it’s time for it to go away. Imagine those feelings being pushed out of your body. Can you feel it rising from your chest and evaporating out of your head like steam or a dark cloud?
Of course, each individual has different experiences with this method. Try it yourself and let it slowly do its work. ERM reminds us to prioritize what is important and let the unnecessary go. So, when you ever feel bombarded with stress, like talking to a stranger, for instance, use ERM. Your mind and body will thank you for it.
