Guided visualization is also practiced with physical techniques
such as a massage or progressive muscle relaxation. The aim is to
make sure that the mind enters a state of peace.
The imagery used is used as a distraction tool to ward the mind
away from things that may be stressing you. You may receive verbal
or non-verbal instructions to let your mind relax.
Practicing this method requires both concentration and
imagination. It cannot be practiced in noisy environments as
interruptions easily put you off track and getting back into your
tranquil state will be a lot more difficult.
This method plays a huge role in improving concentration abilities
as focus is what is required. It also impacts cognitive abilities and
improves memory power.
Guided visualization will require you to think better without a
clogged mind. The technique will improve your creativity and
promote peaceful thinking. When unwanted thoughts disturb your
thinking process, guided visualization can help you get rid of them.
People seek this method because it allows them to relax. Finding
peace can be a difficult thing but creating it on your own is easy.
