Jung called it active imagination, the inherent ability to enhance one’s personal evolution by transforming images in the mind. Just like a dream, the mind does not distinguish between actual and imagined experience.  In one study, imagining shooting baskets daily was as effective as actually shooting baskets in the gym.  We can use this ability to connect with that place within that has never been touched by pain; that space that holds unlimited potential, and personal truth.  Tuning into this intuitive voice we can heal past experiences, connect with our true desires, understand the meaning of physical symptoms/illness, and create a sense of inner peace.

Individual intuitive meditation sessions geared to your specific goals or issues are available.  The process is interactive; Deborah Sandella, who is trained in Interactive Guided Imagery and Ericksonian hypnosis, acts as a guide and creates imagery to facilitate your specific style and needs.  

 For example, Margie requested an individual session just prior to having surgery because she wanted to help her body undergo the procedure easily and to encourage rapid healing. During the session, Margie dialogued with her body untilthey arrivedat a mutually held sense of peace about the up[coming surgery. Afterwards, she said, My whole state of mind about the surgery shifted from one of pessimism and fear to optimism.”  Margie's surgery went beautifully as did her recovery.

Somewhat differently, John was celebrating his 50th birthday and decided to treat himself to an imagery session.  In his mind's eye, I walked John backward through time so he could identify and release the regrets he had accumulated during his 50 years.  He then walked forward through those same 50 years and incorporated the wisdom learned from each regret. At the end, he stood facing his next 50 years feeling free and committed to live without regret.
