On the day before going to the dentist's office, take a small stone that you can hold in your hand or place on a necklace. Imagine yourself surrounded by white, healing light. Feel the warm light throughout your body. This light helps you breath deeply and easily, while keeping your awareness of pain at a minimum. Imagine the white light folding itself into the stone. Take this stone with you to the dentist appointment. While waiting for the dentist to arrive, imagine the white light unfolding from the stone and surrounding you for the duration of your appointment. After your appointment is over, thank the stone for holding this light for you.
