25 Aspects of Self Care Self-awareness Relaxation Biofeedback Meditation Imagery Exercise Nutrition

26 Imagery

27 Visual Arts Claude Monet Water Lilies 1920

28 Imagery is The dominant language of the unconscious mind A vital source of information and inspiration The beat beneath the music

29 The Cerebral Hemispheres Left hemisphere concerned with analytic information Right hemisphere concerned with visual/intuitive information

30 Types of Imagery Feeling State Imagery Imagery that changes one s mood or emotional state in a very broad way End State Imagery Imagery that highlights concrete goals one is striving for Biologically Correct Imagery Imagery that focuses on what is actually occurring microscopically in the cells and organs of the body (Naparstek, 1904)

31 Active Imagery vs. Receptive Imagery Active Imagery The intentional use of specific images to communicate with the unconscious (to affect, change, or communicate intent) Receptive Imagery Occurs when images spontaneously arise from the unconscious

32 Hearing

33 Smell

34 Touch

35 Taste

36 Feeling

37 Imagery In the absence of competing stimuli your body does not know the difference between a real or imagined scenario The more senses you engage in an imagery experience the more intense the physiological response. Dossey, Keegan, Guzzetta, Holistic nursing a handbook for practice. (Maryland: Aspen publication, 2000),
