Mindfulness – Visualisation exercise (text guide)

Think of a health goal you want to achieve or a helpful habit that you want to develop. 

Sit in a relaxed, upright position and close your eyes.  
 

Now see yourself having achieved this goal or practising this helpful habit. 

Use as much colour, sound, sensation and even smell in this mental imagery as you can imagine! 

As your future successful self, consider the points below.    

Pause for 10 seconds after each:

• What do you look like?  
• What are you doing?  
• How do you feel?  
• What are you thinking? 
• How do you respond to obstacles and challenges? 
• Experience yourself having achieved your goal or practicing your helpful habit 

When you are ready, you may open your eyes.
