Sometimes, when the disease is worst and it's not possible to read, to watch TV, to stay connected, to move, to talk, to do any kind of action, to go the therapy, my mind feels exausted because it is not able to distract myself, to change the thoughts, to give me some kind of peace.
Does anyone know some kind of meditation that could give some rest to my mind and helps me in the pursuit of a good mental health?

My heart & prayers go out to you -- in your quest for Peace & Healing. There are so many ways, forms of meditation -- w/ guidance from an "instructor", tapes, books, etc.-- but even simple focused breathing can be challenge when the Mind is so full & busy... someone posed this @

www.beliefnet.com

website --in Meditation section.(access via their Search box w/ key word "Meditation") Perhaps you'll find suggestions there helpful; lots of articles & "examples" or numerous Links to other sites...that may be beneficial...
Good LUCK....

Relaxation Technique

Thank you, Lara
I'm using the relaxation technique and it is working for me.
I started to read online the book from Dr Clayton Tucker-Ladd, Psychological Self-Help, avaiable in http://www.psychologicalselfhelp.org/ and I have the impression that it could help me too...

Hey Bluestone
thanks for this thread, I went to Laras site, and will try this technique, after another sleepless night anything is worth a try, and the online book looks like it could be interesting, so THANKYOU!!!

Hi redtaiil, it woud be great for us to share our experiences with the technique and with the online book, don't you think?
I'm using the relax techique using respiration when I go to sleep and when I'm doing physical therepy or exercises, but I'm still in a search of the best moment for me. The book can be found at the site http://forums.psychcentral.com/There is a forum named "Sharing Self-Help Ideas
(A place to learn, try-out, and share new self-help ideas, based upon the book, Psychological Self-Help by Dr. Clay Tucker-Ladd.)

A man named Eli Bay does the most incredible guided meditation/relaxations tapes. He is from Canada He has the most wonderful, comforting voice. I highly recommend his tapes!

May i ask what your disorder is , i feel like that sometimes. I can talk if needed( some one walks in there room and talks to me), has it progressed in time? If you can just leave me a messge in my mail box i do not know much about this site yet just joined today.

bluestone hasn't posted in a year. you may want to look at the dates. if the person isn't an active member, most likely they will never see your reply.

i will say most will feel more comfortable keeping conversations on the forum, until they get to know someone, before sending private messages.
