Before you Begin with Your Practice: Learn how to Cancel
You are well aware of the fact that ideas, thoughts, and resolutions, have the tendency to materialize. Some people speak of thought forms that will eventually become reality.
If you use the first training formula, i.e., 'my right arm is very heavy, certain changes will take place in that arm that last as long as you are in the Autogenic state. The formulas that follow induce other changes.
When you end with your practice, you need to undo these changes. To undo these changes you need to cancel them. Even if you have felt nothing it is good to undo. This is so because sometimes the formulas may induce delayed reactions. You cancel by following the instructions that Dr. Schultz has given:
Say: Arms firm, breathe deeply, open eyes.
At the same time you can stretch and bend your arms vigorously, then breathe deeply and open your eyes. Canceling will not work as well if you open your eyes before you relax your arm muscles again. If you open your eyes prior to canceling, some feeling of heaviness or some other sensation may persist in your arms for some time. If you do not cancel correctly some heaviness may last for several hours, in rare cases even days.
The more determinedly and conscientiously you cancel, the more effective the whole practice of Autogenic Training will be. Should you fall asleep while practicing, you need not cancel, of course. The same holds if you are suddenly interrupted during your practice, by the telephone or the doorbell, for example. In such a case you will suffer a brief shock that makes it unnecessary to cancel.
