How to

Picture a real or imagined place where you feel completely safe and at ease in vivid sensory detail — what you see, hear, and feel there — and let the sense of safety settle into the body.

Benefits

  • An accessible starting point for people who find blank stillness difficult
  • Widely used in clinical relaxation and anxiety-reduction settings
  • Gives the mind a positive, specific place to return to under stress

Practice

10-15 minutes; the same sanctuary revisited repeatedly becomes faster and more vivid to access over time.
