When using GIM (guided imagery and music), you become an active traveler on your personal hero's journey. Exploring inner and outer life, facing the dragons in your path, finding the treasure, and bringing it home to transform your life.
In a meditative-like focus, the traveler can open to spontaneity and be receptive to whatever images, sensations, insights, messages, archetypal journeys and healing transformation may arise.
The music becomes an anchor and constant companion to the traveler as well as a co-therapist as an active change agent to stimulate the imagination and create solutions and healing.
The Bonny Method of GIM promotes:
- Autonomy in the therapeutic process, trust in one’s self
- Accelerated movement in therapy and moving through emotional, psychological, and spiritual material
- Body awareness and release of traumatic material that has become stuck in the nervous system
- Safe expression of emotions
- Spontaneity and flexibility
- Honesty from the unconscious
- Personalized metaphors and stories to help you create a better life
