Step 1 Find a quiet place to relax. It can be anywhere suitable that allows you a few free moments. I prefer my bedroom lying preferably first in the morning as part of my devotional prayer and meditation.
Step 2 Take 3 deep breathes and then close your eyes
Step 3 Begin to clear your mind of all your current problems. Name each problem one by one and put all of them inside an imaginary cupboard by the side of your bed.
Step 4 Having emptied your mind of all your current problems, allow your mind to be free for a few moments. Release yourself from all the worries and feel relaxed and at peace with yourself. At this very moment, you have no problem whatsoever. You are totally free just as the day you were born
Step 5 Now, invite the problem that is currently dominating your life. The one that is uppermost in your life now. I want you to leave that problem in your mind and allow it to stay there for a few moments. That is the only problem you have in your entire life at this very point in your life.
Step 6 Allow the thought of the single problem to settle down in your mind and begin to focus on it intently. Imagine what colour is it. Red? Black? What does it feel like? Let the problem look at you in the face and you look at back as powerfully as you can. Notice the feeling you have about the problem. Do not let the way the problem is looking at you frighten you. In fact, your look should frighten the problem.
Step 7 As you focus on this problem begin to ask yourself the following 4 questions. Do not attempt to answer any of them. Just spend a minute or two reflecting on each question as you ask it. As you ask each question, listen to what your inner voice is telling you. Notice each specific word or phrase that you are hearing. Now begin to ask yourself these four questions:
• What is the root of the problem?
• What does it mean to me now?
• What does it feel to have this problem?
• What makes it feel so bad now?
Step 8 Begin to notice any words or phrases that are coming to your mind. Some words or phrases would hit you more than the others.
Note how you feel each time a new word or phrase comes into your focus.
Step 9 Focus on those words or phrases that seem to capture the real essence of the problem at hand. Focus on one word or phrase at a time and notice what you feel.
Step 10 Once you have identified a word or phrase that most appropriately fit the essence of the problem at hand, begin a regular meditation on that word or phrase until you begin to feel some librating movements in your body. Hold on to those words or phrases. At least one of them holds the key to the problem.
Step 11 Set up an action plan to resolve the problem using your answers to each of the following six questions to guide you:
• What will I be feeling when the problem is resolved?
• What do I need to resolve the problem?
• What are the various ways to resolve this problem?
• What is the best ways to resolve the problem?
• Who do I need to contact for help?
• What step can I take right now to start resolving the problem?
