Presence -- The Abigail Way

Okay, so there' a method for achieving the It Factor/ Presence. There's the right way, and then there's the Abigail Anonymiss way. The Abby Anonymiss way might not be entirely right, but it sure is a lot funner.

1. Lie on your back or in a comfortable position, on the floor. Make sure that there is no noise or distractions. Relax.

2. Close your eyes, and remember that the state you are in can change. Focus on nothing but your breathing.

3. Allow your breathing to fall in and out of your chest without interference. Notice where your breath starts to catch. Focus and allow your breath to "touch" that place until it opens up.

4. Now, focus on your face. Are you tense? Are you frowning? Pretend that all your oxygen is delivered into that space, until it relaxes. Repeat to the rest of your face.

5. Repeat throughout your body.

6. You should now be free of tensions. Open your eyes gently and look into a mirror. You may look different. Don't judge, but acknowledge the change.

7. You might also sound different, maybe calmer, more stable. Talk to a friend and see if they notice your change.

8. Whenever you feel tension coming back, take a deep breath in and exhale, releasing your tension.

Remember,

- Practice makes perfect. Everyone can have the It Factor. Only some can cultivate it. Only after months and months can anyone perfect it.

- Ever hear the phrase, "Poetry in motion"? That is what we are trying to achieve. We are trying to achieve a state of inner peace and gracefulness.

- Try to see if you can have natural, flowing motions. Don't be so stiff. Loosen up, and let go of your tension.


I guess that's the best I can explain it. =I
