Nervous tension

Nervous tension
Is an unseen enemy
Of the human mind
Nervous tension
Can cause you to lack confidence in yourself
To lose your concentration
And to be inefficient in your work
Nervous tension
Can prevent you from relaxing
To spoil your leisure hours
And rob you of the sleep you need at night
Nervous tension

Nervous tension

The purpose of this record
Is to train you in the art of relaxing
Both your mind and your body
Use it regularly
Train your mind through repetition
To follow the suggestions
And then you'll be ready to progress
To side 2

The mind remains tense
When it is restlessly turning over personal problems
Worrying about financial matters
Or the conflicts of daytime plight
Or fretting over the troubles of the world
A mind so strained and tense
Cannot relax
Even in sleep
Night passes in uneasy dreams
The body is not refreshed as it should be
But you can overcome this difficulty
If you thoroughly relax your mind before you go to bed
Better still
You can learn to relax from time to time during the day
So that nervous tension never builds up
To an unpleasant degree

Nervous tension

Nervous tension

You will carefully plan your course through life
You will think about your plan
Think about your interests
Think with the pleasure
Of the satisfaction you will feel
As the plan becomes reality
You will firmly imprint in your mind this phrase:
"I maintain, at all times, a calm, confident, cheerful state of mind,"
You will repeat it aloud to yourself
At least three times daily

You will give your mind and body
The rest they need to restore energy
Very shortly
You will no longer need to listen to my voice
You will absorb and understand the suggestions I have given you
And you will learn to give them to yourself

Nervous tension

Nervous tension

And now, we shall begin
