I would NOT advise any new person to create a thoughtform. Damn, I've been an SS for some years now, and I'm still not familiar with thoughtforms.
From my own experience in the past, thoughtforms don't seem able to do things that your own power can't do. So, even if I created a thoughtform to heal someone from (eg) cancer (which I can't do it atm), then the thoughtform wouldn't be able to do it either.
The thoughtform also needs constant energy feeding etc etc... It's just not worth it.
The meditations on JoS for opening the chakras are great. Another thing about the third eye is that you should also practice visualization, and trying to "see" from your third eye, while your eyes are closed (without straining your eyes). For example, try something like this: https://www.satanisgod.org/www.angelfire.com/empire/serpentis666/Sound.html
Also, you should work on these: https://www.satanisgod.org/www.angelfire.com/empire/serpentis666/Clairvoyance_Points.html
As for feeling relaxed in order to do meditations, you can relax yourself with whatever music you like, or focus on your breathing. For example, inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4 counts and exhale for 4 counts. It is VERY effective and relaxing - I always relax so much after doing this for just three repetitions.
I don't know if this could be helpful for relaxation for you, but I had made this video on how to enter a trance state. I mention some relaxation methods: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL63-Vkx1lE
