Release the power of our imagination
Another amazing aspect of guided visualizations is the way in which it allows us to channel the power of imagination and mind to our favor, to help us understand or transform a specific situation or theme.
Many times we use our mind to evoke negative images, imagine the worst, revive something painful of the past … with all the consequences that this has for our emotional and physical health. In fact, it is fascinating to observe what happens in our body when we imagine a stressful or terrifying scene, even simply thinking about an acidic taste, an unpleasant noise. Our heart accelerates, the muscles tense, raise the pressure …
On the other hand, when we imagine something relaxing, tasty, tender … our body loosen, something opens and widens, our feeling of well -being increases. The environment and the general intention of a guided visualization has to do with connecting with images, landscapes and situations that nourish us and allow us to return to a basic confidence in life and to be able to listen to the answers we have within us.
Connect with our ‘internal healer’
Finally, the fact of creating a cozy and quiet place and giving us some time without distractions to travel in and listen to the voice of someone who guides and holds us, gives us the perfect opportunity to connect with our own wisely and loving voice.
I feel that guided visualizations have the potential to be a master key that opens doors to the deepest of our being, to connect with what I call our «healer or internal healer.» If we do not create this type of space for internal listening, it is difficult for this reflexive and ancestral voice to be emerged among the daily rush, that part of ours that knows what we really need in our path of life.
When we open a door to our unconscious and very internal and deep places, the possibility is given, as I have lived very clearly, of transforming ancient patterns and beliefs, of letting go something that loads and limits us and to heal ourselves at an emotional and physical level. Through the images and inspiration we receive, a guided visualization can increase our confidence in life, help us to free our potential and creativity, and cultivate our spiritual connection.
