From Healing through Personal & Collective Transformation: Jezz Chung – Into Healing S2, Ep.3:
“My therapist taught me this safe, calm place exercise, which I also write about in my book. You settle into your body, close your eyes, and just breathe deeply. I like to imagine a grounding cord running from my pelvis all the way up to the top of my head. I breathe into it, in and out, and then I imagine the most idyllic scenario of peace, serenity, and safety for me.
Sometimes I picture myself on a hammock, either alone or with loved ones. I imagine vast green pastures, big fluffy clouds, flowers, and trees—completely surrounded by nature in the most serene environment.
I've learned a lot from studying psychology in college, and I'm still a big neuroscience nerd. Our brain doesn’t know the difference between actually experiencing something and imagining it. That’s why many actors truly go through the experiences they portray. The body doesn’t know it’s just in your head."
