Glove Anesthesia Instructions
This CD will teach you step-by-step how to quickly relieve pain in any specific area of your body. It doesn’t matter if your pain is short-term, like a sprain or strain or pain resulting from a dental or medical procedure, or long-term, like neck and back pain, arthritis, and headaches tend to be – this technique still works. In fact, some people report that it even helped relieve a “heartache” or the emotional pain that can result from a sudden loss.
Glove Anesthesia is a two step guided imagery technique. First, you’ll learn how to develop feelings of tingly numbness in your hand, as if you were placing it into an imaginary anesthetic glove. That’s why it’s called “Glove Anesthesia.” Next, you’ll learn how to transfer this numbness to any part of your body that hurts simply by placing your now "anesthetized" hand upon it, allowing the numbness to move quickly and deeply into the sensitive area, relieving any pain or tenderness you felt. Skeptical? That’s OK, but why not give it a try and see what happens? You might be surprised.
Let’s start by demonstrating how you can develop feelings of numbness in your hand. It’s really easy. In a few moments, I’m going to ask you to dip one of your hands into an imaginary bucket filled with an extremely potent anesthetic fluid, one so powerful that it can easily penetrate any living tissue, causing it to become completely numb and insensitive to all feelings. It’s really powerful stuff.
To prepare for this first step, decide which hand you will use for this process. Make sure that the hand you choose can comfortably reach your painful area. And if you need to, take a moment to re-adjust your posture appropriately. Good.
Begin now to stretch the fingers on that hand out by spreading them apart as widely as you can. Just stretch your fingers as wide apart as you can, and hold them like that for a moment or two. You may be surprised to notice that tingly feelings of numbness are beginning to develop in your hand even in anticipation of doing the technique. As you’ll soon see, once your hand is totally numb, you can use it to soothe, relieve, and relax any part of your body that hurts simply by placing your hand on it and imagining that the numbness is streaming into it.
As people continue to practice Glove Anesthesia several times per day, the relief they obtain seems to become stronger and last longer and longer. Some say they only need to think of the bucket and anesthetic fluid and they get pain relief immediately.
I hope this will be true for you, too. I recommend that you keep a record of your progress, and each time you practice Glove Anesthesia, record how effective the technique has been for you and how much relief it provided. If you like, you can use the SUDS or Subjective Units of Discomfort scale. It goes like this: On a scale of 0-to 10 where 0 represents no pain, and 10 represents the greatest pain you can imagine, how intense is your pain right now? Rate it before you begin Glove Anesthesia and again, after you complete it.
And of course, NEVER listen to this or any other guided imagery CD while driving a car or while engaged in any other activity that requires your full and complete attention. Listen to it ONLY when you can concentrate fully on the imagery experience in a way that is safe and protected.
Glove anesthesia will permit you to unlock your creative energies, to turn off your pain in your imagination and simultaneously in your body. If you’ve also been practicing Conditioned Relaxation regularly, you may obtain symptomatic relief the very first time you try it. If not, keep practicing and allow enough time for Glove Anesthesia to work. Don’t try to force or make it happen, just invite yourself to experience it by listening to Track Two of this CD at least twice a day.
Once you’ve learned Glove Anesthesia, you may want to practice it with the briefer versions you’ll find on Track Three with music or on Track Four without music. Once you’ve mastered the technique and want some pain relief immediately, listen to Instant Glove Anesthesia which you’ll find on Track Five with background music, or on Track Six without music.
Track Seven contains information for resolving some of the more common problems that people encounter when first learning this technique. Keep in mind that Glove Anesthesia is a symptomatic pain control technique. That means it reduces the physical symptoms of pain without concern for its cause. It is a useful alternative to pain medications, without any known complications or side effects when properly used. However, keep in mind that pain is usually a message from the body that something is wrong, so be sure to consult an appropriate health care professional for proper diagnosis before using this or any other symptomatic pain control technique.
If you a ready to experience Glove Anesthesia right now, just sit back and relax for it will begin shortly on Track Two.
