Guided Meditation as a Healing Process

Written by Christine A. Loter, CHt
The power of the creative imagination needs to be taken seriously by the novice as a healing tool. It may not even be fully explored by those who use it in their daily lives. There are many kinds of guided meditation. We’re going to focus on self-guided meditation for the beginner.

For those who have never used or experienced guided imagery, they can consider it a form of controlled fantasy. This is fantasizing with intention or a goal––something the individual wants to achieve. Yet it does have a trance-like relaxation element, and even pleasure that fantasies often have. The object of a relaxed state is that the individual enters into an alpha or theta state, whereby they can utilize their psychic abilities. Novice’s can begin to develop these abilities. The individual exercises and familiarizes themselves with the third eye, also known as the Eye of Shiva. In this staging area of our imaginative faculties, we can create or recreate our personal reality. The creative intelligent power of Soul at this level of consciousness, and in this area of it’s being (the sixth or brow chakra or third eye), truly becomes a conscious creator of its own reality. This is also known as “the Creative Seat of Soul.”

The possibilities of what we can create for ourselves are as endless as our imagination. We can “reimage” our life according to our liking, as well as what’s possible when there are no internal blockages in these areas. Whether the focus is health, finances, relationships or our life purpose, guided imagery helps to align our “selves,” focus our energies, and create and establish the road before us.

A simple technique for beginners is to sit quietly where they won’t be disturbed, giving themselves a comfortable block of time whereby the practitioner begins to relax by simply breathing in and out, placing their attention on their breathing process. This will slow down thoughts and still the chattering of the mind. At some point they’ll find themselves observers of their thoughts, and at this moment their mind’s eye (the mental screen) can be used as an area to formulate through imaging, the desired manifestation. With imagination and intention, Soul puts into motion cause and effect. By molding its divine energy, it manifests in the intended result. Simply put, it’s “getting what we wish for.”

Our manifestations can come quickly and clearly when we image them with no subconscious interference and external obstacles. When we’re in alignment within ourselves and outside ourselves, and in the flow of our life force, these manifestations can be surprising. And, at some times, they’re considered miraculous. As a healing technique, whether it’s healing ones health, finances or relationships, it also brings confidence and empowers the practitioner. By experimenting with this on a daily basis, these abilities develop and help us to advance spiritually and more tangibly in life itself.
