Pic blog 9-3 TalkHave you ever tried to talk to your pain to find out what it is trying to tell you? Guided Imagery can help you have a discussion with your pain and it may reveal its purpose.  Many times clients find that the pain wants them to take better care of themselves, get out of a bad relationship or bad job.  You see your subconscious mind has many ways of getting your attention and pain is very effective in doing that.  I know this may sound woo-woo or far-fetched but sometimes it is very enlightening.

I worked with one client that had general body pain due to an illness.  The image that represented her pain was a multi-colored cube.  After talking with the image she discovered that she was hiding many parts of herself at work and even with friends.  The pain wanted her to be able to fully express herself.  Ironically the pain also caused her to become withdrawn at times or not go out with friends.  She made a deal to express herself more if the pain would decrease.  As she started to express herself more at work the pain started to decrease.  I made her an audio so she could continue talking with the pain image on a regular basis and the last I heard from her the pain had significantly decreased and she was enjoying life more.

Sometimes the image will not communicate with the person.  You see your subconscious will protect you and not tell you anything you are not ready to hear. Then I may approach the pain by instructing the client on a specific technique(s) to help decrease the pain.  Your mind is powerful, sometimes you just need to find the right key to unlock it.  You can talk to your pain and see what it has to say with a little help from someone skilled at engaging imagery, like me.   Would you like to talk to your pain?
