Fantastic! I'm going to have to listen to this book again. Some of the ideas behind the book:
1. Use guided imagery along with regular medical treatment.
2. Helps you create a respectful relationship with your body, which can help you understand what your body is going through and how to help it.
3. Continuation of Psychoneuroimmunology in which the way our mind and body are completely connected and can affect our internal chemistry.

I'm a strong believer in the body-mind connection. The second cd in this set is a cd of guided techniques. I use these to help me get to sleep at night, to quiet my mind, to still my body. I have restless leg syndrome on top of sleep apnea, and most recently diagnosed with fibro myalgia. Sleep is something that elludes me nightly. The first guided session helps me invite my body to relax muscle by muscle, body part by body part. I'm usually asleep by the middle of the session.

I want to use these sessions to help me with other areas of my life as well, not just for sleep. The best thing for firbro myalgia patients is to get their weight under control and set up an organized schedule so that flare ups are few and far between.

One of the examples used in the book is about a woman who needed to lose weight. Dr. Rossman asked the woman if she could imagine how she would feel if she lost weight. When the woman said she would feel fantastic, he asked her if she could imagine what it would be like to give up desserts for a week. She said she would give herself a ton of pats on the back if she could give up desserts for a week. The idea being that they make a plan for her imagery and to make that plan manageable and maintainable. Dr. Rossman says that we have to have a plan when we begin guided imagery otherwise we'll kind of be all over the place in our goals and what we hope to obtain in our sessions. But we want to make sure that our goals are big enough to matter and small enough to maintain. I like that. I did something similar in which I said I would give up ice cream for 21 days. I think I'm going on 44 days now.

Another thing I like about guided imagery is that it gives us permission to dream and harness our daydreams for our own successes and healthiness. Obviously you wouldn't want to spend your entire day daydreaming, but with guided imagery you have a clear goal in mind and something to work towards. One woman with heart disease used guided imagery to help her connect to her illness and her heart. She said that she finally realized that her heart wasn't just something that she lugged around to doctor after doctor, but that it was really her heart and that it needed her respect, love and care. Dr. Rossman says we should be quiet and ask our body what it needs; how it would feel if it was healthy. Then we need to listen with respect to what our body tells us.

I recommend this book to anyone who is beginning a project, wants to take better care of themselves, or has certain goals that they want to achieve. (For those who live in Gainesville, this is available at the Alachua County libraries.) ( )
