Begin by ensuring you are in a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down, with your back fully supported. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths.
Focus on your breath, noticing the sensations of inhaling and exhaling. Allow yourself to become aware of any distractions that arise during this process.
Visualize a container that can hold any distressing material. This could be a box, bag, or any object that resonates with you. Describe its characteristics in the designated field.
Add an inscription to your container indicating it will remain sealed until you choose to open it for healing purposes.
Practice opening and closing your container within your mind, placing any distressing thoughts or feelings inside it as needed.
Once finished, lock the container in your visualization and take a moment to notice how you feel now that those thoughts are contained.
