About Psychotherapy Through Imagery (2nd Edition)
Waking imagery is analogous to dreams, as both are avenues into the unconscious.
When the flow of waking
imagery is reported, what is revealed is information about personality
that is not consciously acknowledged by the individual. Waking imagery
thus has a projective quality that bypasses most ordinary censorship.
This function of the mind is often neglected in verbal linear interaction
with a therapist. The "discovery" of waking imagery-of revealing
profound meanings about personality in our unconscious images-may be one
of the most important psychological findings in this century. And one
of the most ignored.
The past two decades have witnessed an exciting upsurge of research and
clinical applications of our basic capacity for forming images or related
mental representations of external experience or internal memories and
emotions.
