Stillness Practices
Infinite Blue Ocean
Cognitive / Thought-Based
An expansive visualization designed to dissolve feelings of irritation, anger, or acute claustrophobia. It expands your internal sense of space by using a vast water metaphor.

Instructions
Recline back comfortably: Get into an open, relaxed posture where your chest can expand fully.
See the vast water: Imagine you are floating perfectly weightless on your back in a calm, endless blue ocean.
Look into the depth: Picture the miles of deep, completely quiet, undisturbed water resting miles below you.
Match the gentle swell: Let your breathing match the slow, rhythmic rising and falling of a gentle ocean swell.
Dissolve your borders: Imagine the edges of your body are dissolving until you are simply one with the vast water.
Rest for 5 minutes: Maintain this weightless floating visualization for 5 quiet minutes.
