Music and Imagery
Music and Imagery is a process in which music is chosen to allow the listener to tap into his or her inner world of imagery or imagination. Thoughts, feelings, memories and daydream fantasies are elicited in order to help the listener get in touch with this inner world of creativity and wisdom. Problems may be worked through and new approaches to dealing with them can be explored and experienced. As people get reconnected with this inner core of creativity, they often get a renewed sense of where they fit into the larger picture of life and the world. Day to day living experiences and relationships become easier.
