on Mind Body Medicine
This amazing book is a must read for all people who believe in
the power of mind-body medicine and how it can be a successful
component in your healing process. The following is an exerpt
from Shakti Gawain's groundbreaking work, originally published
in the 1970's. I recommend all my patients get
a copy of this book and carry it around until you are using
the power od mediatation and visualization to change your thoughts
away from the pain body patterns that are often prevalent in patients
with chronic pain conditions.
This is an exerpt from this great
book and talks about visualization as a method for letting go
of your pain. Imagine yourself as pain free when it talks about
something you would like to manifest.
"Sit or lie down comfortably, close your eyes and breathe
deeply, slowly, and naturally. Gradually relax deeper and deeper.
Imagine something that you would like to manifest. Imagine that
it has already happened. Picture it as clearly as possible in
your mind.
Now in your mind's eye surround your fantasy with a pink bubble;
put your goal inside the bubble. Pink is the color vibration associated
with the heart, and if this color vibration surrounds whatever
you viualize, it will bring to you only that which is in perfect
affinity with your being.
The third step is to let go of the bubble and imagine it floating
off into the universe, still containing your vision.This symbolizes
that you are emotionally 'letting go' of it. Now it is free to
float around in the universe, attracting and gathering energy
for its manifestation. There is nothing more that you need to
do." ...Shakti Gawain
