CREATIVE VISUALISATION OR IMAGERY
CREATIVE VISUALISATION OR IMAGERY
Visualisation can be used to achieve your goals; it can also provide an effective escape from the stress of every day life. Creative visualisation is bringing pleasant images to mind. You may find that it deepens the relaxation. Mitchell L. Gaynor MD; author of Healing Essence: A Cancer Doctor’s Practical Program for Hope and Recovery, (Kodansha) claims that Guided Imagery can be an adjunct to conventional cancer therapies like chemotherapy, radiation and marrow transplantation.
The easy mental exercise involves creating or recalling, and then focusing on a tranquil mental picture. Jeanne Achterberg, - a psychologist has called guided imagery” thinking without words”. My tranquil picture features the sea and a beach because of my childhood memories of the East Coast of Africa.
Sit comfortably and close your eyes, breathing slowly in your upper abdomen and out through your mouth, Listen to it. You have nothing to worry about, nothing to be stressed about. Relax. Retreat in your mind to a small coastal town. Go to the beach with silver sand, turquoise sea and lush tropical foliage. Feel the warm sun on your skin and the gentle breeze caressing you. Revel in the tall arching coconut trees, the salty scent of the sea, the ululating waves Focus on how the sea gently laps against the shore in rhythm with your breathing With each exhalation, your tension, your worries are taken away on the tide..
Stay relaxed in the scene until you feel calm. When you feel ready, gently move out of it and bring your awareness to the present.
HELPFUL TIPS
• Some people prefer images of sunlight on the garden or woods or a hill/mountain or a lake. In your own visualisation, you create your own idyllic retreat to which you can escape any time. Think of an image that tends to be associated with relaxation for you.
• The first time you practise it, note every detail of the idyllic retreat or better still write it down. Use your own words. Carry the card with you
• Once you have registered all the details in your memory, use the imagery when ever you feel stressed. I have tried it with a number of people and they have reported feeling much calmer.
