Remembering the Past with Singing in the Rain
By Tracy Lyn Roberts
This was used to get a person outside exercising on cold, wet days.
- 1. Close your eyes and imagine the ideal you, the ideal you in the future who has all the qualities, characteristics, skills, values that you will have. This ideal you exercises according to a schedule not according to weather. Make the image clear as a bell and picture perfect.
- 2. Open your eyes and tell me about the ideal you.
- 3. Close your eyes and remember a time when you used to believe in Santa Clause or the tooth fairy. Imagine telling a friend about that time. Feel how real all the beliefs you had then seem so distant now.
- 4. Open your eyes and tell me about the younger you who used to have such beliefs.
- 5. Close your eyes and imagine you as your ideal self again. This time imagine yourself exercising on a rainy day. Perhaps it is the kind of rainy day where Gene Kelly is singing and dancing in the musical “Singing in the Rain.”
- 6. Open your eyes and tell me again about your ideal self.
- 7. Close your eyes and as your ideal self imagine telling a friend about the person you are today, the you who used to have this unwanted behaviour or habit. You are telling the story with the same feeling you had when you told the story about Santa Clause.
- 8. Open your eyes and tell me the story.
- 9. Repeat this process 5-6 times
- 10. Test
