What is Therapeutic Guided Imagery?

Therapeutic Guided Imagery is an interactive form of hypnotherapy which helps you to "bypass the
censor we call the brain" and access your feelings more quickly, working indirectly with hidden issues
and distorted belief systems. It is one of the most powerful tools I have available to use in helping my
clients. By using metaphor and symbols, the language of the subconscious mind, Imagery allows you to  
bypass your conscious thoughts and gain a deeper understanding and control of your unconscious
behavior.

Imagery uses the symbolic language of the subconscious and is as individual as you are. By working with
these symbols you begin to discover hidden patterns and motivations. By bringing those hidden
metaphors to light, imagery allows you to release the old patterns, leading to recovery and rehabilitation
of the body, mind and spirit.

Imagery, in one form or another, is an integral part of hypnotherapy and life coaching sessions. Whether
you are visualizing yourself having achieved your goals, exploring an abstract representation of a habit
you are trying to break or talking to your Inner Guide, you are using your active imagination to create
results.

Imagery is a process that uses
all of the senses - not just sight. Visualization is an important element, but
it is not required that you see anything! You might find that you hear, smell taste or feel the experience
before you see anything. For others there's just a "knowing". However you experience it, it does allow
you to investigate the deeper energy, feeling and meaning of the images being examined

Guided Imagery Group Sessions

Spring 2010
$35

Guided Imagery  with a group can be especially powerful  as each individual benefits form his/her own
inner journey and also learns from the experience of others as the group shares afterwards. These
sessions will include a rotating roster of topics designed to help you find the answers and resources
within yourself and bring them to the surface where you can access them easily. You can use these
representational visualizations to manage stress, unleash creativity, reach goals, release negative beliefs
and find answers.

These sessions are free standing: there is no prerequisite or specific order, so you are free to attend one,
some, or all sessions. And yes, you may come back to the same session more than once - Every time you
talk to your Inner Guide, (for instance,)  I'm sure you will have new questions to ask and he/she will have
new insight to reveal!
