in-vitro conditioning. To start, visualize the scene that makes you the least anxious on your hierarchy. Visualize this scene for approximately 15 seconds. If at any time you get nervous or anxious while visualizing the scene, immediately terminate it. If termination of the stimulus is required, again induce deep muscle relaxation and repeat the visualization of the same scene. Continue this procedure until you can remain totally relaxed while visualizing the anxiety-producing stimulus.
