Creative Imagery and Visualization: Why is this so very important to know about?

Our minds are wonderful things. You probably know that, but perhaps you have yet to use it to your advantage.

How often do you find yourself thinking or even saying:

I can't...

I'm not good enough to...

What if I mess up?

What if...

You get the point-mostly negative.
Sadly, negative self-talk (also called the inner critic) can be very harmful because it becomes very real to us.

Let's take a more positive twist on this same line of thinking.

Just the way negative talk is harmful, positive talk evokes positive and even peaceful feelings. It not only changes our behavior and our attitudes. but it changes our very body composition.

Can stress kill?

Creative Imagery and Visualization

As some may know it, imagery is usually referred to as being a set of mental images or pictures, or the use of vivid or figurative language to represent objects, actions, or ideas. It can also refer to any of the five senses: smell, touch, taste, hearing and sight.

We all practice imagery, and just about all the time even if we don't realize it. When we have thoughts, images go through our minds-images sometimes based in reality and also images based on our imagination. For instance, we have never seen heaven or God, yet we have images in our mind and heart about what heaven and God look like.

Creative Imagery and Visualization

Consider this: Read this, and then close your eyes and give it a try: Imagine taking a lemon and holding it in your hand. Take that same lemon and cut it in half. Imagine putting it up to your nose and notice the odor of that lemon. Imagine taking a big slice and putting it in your mouth. Is your mouth watering? Probably. Is there really a lemon making your mouth water? No, but your body and mind think it is real. That is the power of imagery and your imagination. Imagery is also a window of your inner world, your own way of seeing those surrounding you. It’s a mean of distorting the reality that can direct your life and sometimes even shape your health. But in our life, imagery is often thought of being impractical.

Creative Imagery and Prayer

But how powerful is imagery? First of all, think of all the cases where people miraculously abolished diseases. Bernie Siegel, MD is a pioneer with regard to this topic. Take a look at my book store to learn more. You won't be disappointed in his natural and informational writing. In fact, my first introduction to holistic health and imagery were through his wonderful books. I still revisit them once in a while. Imagery can also make you pass through the emotional aspect of any illness, encouraging the physical healing.

Next time you pray, think about the imagery you use. What images go through your mind? How do you feel about them? (Remember that worry is an image, also-so not all imagery can be positive.) Enhance your prayer life by injecting more and more imagery. It can be very powerful.

Is there a link between creative imagery visualization and POWERFUL prayer?
