Guided Imagery
Guided Imagery is a form of mindfulness. It is a technique that is guided by a professional therapist to help individuals focus on positive mental images in order to evoke feelings of relaxation. It is based on the concept of the mind-body connection and research shows that it can contribute to an individuals’ overall wellbeing. Guided Imagery makes use of all of your senses. It only takes a few short minutes as you will see below to give yourself a break and experience a sense of relaxation and wellbeing. With practice it will help you learn to be more mindful and can assist you with your own stress reduction.
The three links below are 5 minute short Guided Imagery sessions:
The first two sessions will give you vocal guidance and imagery to assist you and are good ones for beginners or for individuals who have difficulty visualizing. The third one has audio only and is a true Guided Imagery experience where you are guided to picture scenery of your own choosing.
