Guided imagery technique facilitates mindfulness, helps in getting rid of anxiety. This is a very simple technique yet very effective in nature, time effective, cost effective and very much doable anywhere. How it's done: Head straight for your happy place, no questions asked. With a coach, therapist, or helpful recording as your guide, breathe deeply while focusing on pleasant, positive images to replace any negative thoughts. Psychologist Dr. Ellen Langer explains that while it's just one means of achieving mindfulness, "Guided visualization helps puts you in the place you want to be, rather than letting your mind go to the internal dialogue that is stressful" When it works best: Pretty much any place you can safely close your eyes and let go (eg. not at the wheel of a car).
