In reply to the discussion: Trump's use of hypnotic language [View all]Uncle Joe
(63,112 posts)she was having a panic attack, couldn't drive and stopped at a convenience store, called an ambulance to take her to the hospital.
When I got to the hospital the nurses took her to a waiting room for the doctor to check her out.
She was claustrophobic and felt the walls were closing in on her, she kept leaving the waiting room to walk just outside the hospital doors, the nurse came out and was getting frustrated and told her to go back in.
I was in the waiting room with her but she was exceptionally nervous so I told her to lay on her back, close her eyes, take deep breaths, visualize walking on the beach, feeling the white sand between her toes, seeing the blue green ocean, hearing the seagulls flying overhead.
I kept this up for about ten minutes, she became much more relaxed and that's what we were doing when the doctor finally got there.
I had learned these mediation techniques in the early 80s when I used them on myself with the aid of some cassettes that I purchased and they definitely worked on me.
