Your best friend has been very stressed out and comes to you for advice about trying guided imagery. Give some tips for how s/he can have a positive experience


• Think in terms of the unlimited—no limits, no barriers in your imagination. If you want to fly in your imagination, you are free to fly. If you can imagine it … anything is possible.
• Release all thoughts of what others might think. There are no "others" in your imagination so don't be shy. Act boldly and freely.
• Include relaxing music in the background, such as classical or New Age music without lyrics.
• Be playful. Don't be too serious when you are working in your imagination. The harder you try, the harder it will be to "view" your imageries well.
