Guide For Use Of Guided Imagery And Self-Hypnosis Audiotapes Or CDs
The
instructive, professional recordings are designed to provide
you with the experience of guided imagery and visualization for
relaxation, stress management, and self-hypnosis, applied to
topic or problem areas that are important to you. Each guided imagery
and self-hypnosis audiotape/CD is expertly crafted to assist you in
accomplishing the personal growth, changes, or goals that are
meaningful for you.
Through simply listening to the carefully constructed
audiotapes/CDs, you will be able to experience the wonderfully unique
and enjoyable sensation of being both very physically relaxed and, at
the same time, highly focused in concentrating productively on an
issue or problem that you wish to effectively address, in order to
create and strengthen the desirable behaviors,
thoughts, and feelings you most want. Each self-contained,
instructional audiotape/CD is a tool designed to
provide a beneficial, personalized learning experience - a
fascinating opportunity for self-discovery - and to guide you in
harnessing your inner resources and utilizing your newly-acquired
skills to improve and benefit the problem areas or
concerns you select.
Through the gentle guiding process of the tape’s/CD’s
imagery, you will very likely find that you can relax more readily
and deeply than was possible before, that you can release distracting
thoughts, and that you can concentrate completely and productively on
the task at hand. With the expert help of the audiotape/CD tools,
you will then be able to apply your skills to a
limitless array of problems or goals. These desired personal changes
or goals may include, but are not limited to:
- Deep mental and physical relaxation;
- Reduction/Management of stress;
- Movement out of mild to moderate depression;
- Reduction of anxiety or excessive worry;
- Emotional strengthening, cleansing, and renewal;
- Reduction of fear, phobic reaction, or panic attacks;
- Anger management;
- Behavioral patterns and lifestyle changes such as
- sustaining regular exercise activity,
- smoking cessation,
- control of eating patterns;
- Weight reduction and management;
- Improved management of physiological problems such as:
headaches and migraines, high blood pressure, chronic pain, irritable bowel
syndrome, ulcers, backache, etc.;
- Motivation and confidence for personal goal attainment.
With periodic listening to the guided imagery and self-hypnosis
audiotapes/CDs and with practice, you will develop your own
skill in accelerating and deepening the positive effects of this
process. The more frequently you can listen to your chosen
tape(s)/CD(s), the more rapidly you can reinforce the beneficial
changes or steps toward goals that you want. However, there is no
“minimum required amount” of repetition for this to be
helpful and effective for you.
There are a few important cautions regarding appropriate
and safe use of the audiotapes/CDs:
- Do not listen to the tapes/CDs or use these
techniques while driving or performing other tasks requiring
your full attention;
- Do not utilize or share these powerful techniques or
tapes/CDs with others, who have not been prepared to
make use of them. These tapes are intended for your personal
use only;
- Use of the tapes for problem-solving and personal growth is
not a substitute for professional psychotherapy. Please consult
a therapist for appropriate treatment for severe emotional distress or
psychiatric disorders.
If you have any concerns about the content of the
audiotape/CD, I strongly encourage you to first simply listen to it
in its entirety to see what will happen. You will find it to be just
as though I were talking to you right now, with you simply
concentrating on relaxing and what you wish to accomplish….any
concerns that you might have will vanish.
