Visualization is a form of mental and emotional training that restructures the mind. Simply put, it prepares your subconscious to more readily see and respond to opportunities that otherwise may have gone unnoticed.

This practice has been strengthened through biomechanics research, that revealed the brain is not able to determine the difference between reality, memory and vivid imagination. The exact same neural pathways are sparked when you actually see something as when you remember or visualize it as happening. And the more senses you engage to create these vivid images, the more brain activity you stimulate.

I use visualization techniques with my personal training clients. I ask them to use their imagination for 5 minutes each day to visualize the life they  desire. I then instruct them to see the benefits of this life – greater happiness, health, satisfaction and meaningful relationships. Finally once they have begun to see and hold the bigger picture I ask them to start taking small steps towards those visions.

Seeing where you want to go, feeling it within your mind and body make the path to getting there so much easier!

Imagination is the beginning of creation. We imagine what we desire, we “will” what we imagine, and at last we create what we “will.”
