So, for you to do automation first you need to write down each specific step of the dive, from the surface as you are doing your relaxation breathing, down to the bottom, and then back up again on the surface, as you do your surface protocol. This is probably my favorite type of visualization because I don't need to dive to be able to train, and it helps me to get into what is called "the flow state", where everything is automatic, I don’t have to think about what's going to happen next, or what I need to do I just get into that flow. Now, the last but not least is called automation. Now, if this happened to you the first time this will bring some negative feelings, but since you've already practiced it in your dive, you will apply the best possible solution. For example, you can imagine yourself diving and then eventually having your lanyard getting caught on the rope. So, what this does is lessens the reaction time that you may get when you experience something for the first time because you've already visualized it in your mind, you've already practiced it. This is where you imagine all kinds of scenarios that can happen during a dive and of course the possible solutions to it. Dry visualization is done of course dry when you are not diving and the first one is called anticipatory. This is very important especially if you want to really improve on your dives. Dry VisualizationĪnother type of visualization that you can do is called dry visualization. So, when that's done I know that I am ready and fully relaxed for my dive. I also like to apply what is being practiced in hypnotism, where I imagine myself going down a flight of stairs and at the bottom of the stairs would be this really comfortable bed, and then on each step as I go down, I actively relax my body, so that when I reach the bottom I know that I'm fully relaxed and I imagine myself trying to go to sleep on this relaxing bed. For example, a sunset by the beach, a field of flowers, or clouds rolling by, or sometimes just even imagining yourself alone on the dive line. A lot of people like to imagine their happy place, wherever that may be, or some just like to imagine a relaxing scenery or image. So, transportation is basically transporting yourself into a less stressful environment. TransportationĪfter this, I like to do what is called transportation and this is helpful especially when you are in a stressful situation, like when you are in a competition or when you are trying to complete a course requirement. I try to be specific as much as possible. For example, as the white light is touching my forehead, I relax the space in between my eyebrows, and then as it slowly flows down, I relax my eyes, I relax my cheeks, then I unclench my jaw, and then I relax my neck and my shoulders and so on and so forth until the whole body is fully relaxed. ![]() ![]() So, I like to imagine this white light on the top of my head, and this white light will slowly flow down to my body and bring me relaxation. The body scan helps to really remove any tension or stress that you carry in the body, even those that you are not aware of. I like to do what is called the body scan. So, you do this in the water, while you are on the buoy preparing for your dive, ideally, as you are doing relaxation breathing. In this episode of The Complete Guide, Marese Secades, freediver, instructor, and Filippino National Record holder, explores visualization exercises, which can be practiced by any freediver, in or out of the water. Both automatic metrics and human evaluations verify that the text snippets generated by our iNLG are coherent and informative while displaying minor degeneration.Visualization is one of the best mental strategies that you can use, which will help to boost your confidence, improve your focus and relaxation, and decrease your reaction time or any anxiety that you may experience during freediving. The experiments and analyses demonstrate the effectiveness of iNLG on open-ended text generation tasks, including text completion, story generation, and concept-to-text generation in few-shot scenarios. In this work, we propose iNLG that uses machine-generated images to guide language models (LM) in open-ended text generation. Inspired by such a cognitive process, we ask the natural question of whether we can endow machines with the same ability to utilize visual information and construct a general picture of the context to guide text generation. On the other hand, when generating text, human writers are gifted at creative visualization, which enhances their writings by forming imaginations as blueprints before putting down the stories in words. Recent advances in text-to-image synthesis make it possible to visualize machine imaginations for a given context. ![]()
