THERAPEUTIC GUIDED IMAGERY
Our mind learns through images and symbols.
This is what makes Guided Imagery so powerful. It's the symbolic language of our mind. As a facilitator I am extensively trained
in deciphering your own special symbolic language to create rapid and abundant change.
I use Guided Imagery in every
session. Even the most blocked clients find that they are able to tap into their creative side and gain tremendous therapeutic
benefits from the imagery.
Guided Imagery
and Chronic Pain: Pain has meaning! Its purpose is to call attention to something that's wrong, whether the problem
is physical or psychological. Often my clients come up with vivid images and colors to describe or represent their pain: a
black whole swallowing them, a sharp knife sticking them in the area of the pain, a twisting of the muscles, a giant bolder
on their chest etc. These images can be used to interpret the pain, understand its origins and to discover how to manage it.
The process of guided imagery also promotes relaxation, a key ingredient in pain and stress management. Since stress is a
key factor in many cases to 'chronic pain' the guided imagery serves a dual purpose.
Guided Imagery and Healing: The medical field is now recognizing the mind body connection thanks to great pioneers
such as; Dr. Marty Rossman, Dr. Christine Northrope and Dr. Belle Ruth Naperstek. The benefits of therapeutic imagery in reference
to rapid as well as spontaneous healing is now continuously studied and noted among the medical community.
Guided Imagery and Self Discovery: Guided imagery can also be used to unlock
hidden talents and help clients learn who they truly are. Many of my clients have experienced profound self discoveries through
imagery journey's, and they have reached a higher level of self knowledge bringing forth greater self esteem, clearer future
goals, and a greater sense of self and inner peace.
Guided
Imagery and Children: Children LOVE to use Guided Imagery. They do it every day in
their imagination. I am able to reach my young clients through this powerful modality opening up an entire world to them and
helping them deal with their symptoms and issues.
