—————————–

Guided imagery is perfectly suited for making forgiveness possible, even in the bleakest aftermath of heartbreak, betrayal, deep injury and trauma.

Belleruth Naparstek spells out what it is about this immersive, right-brain technique that makes it such a best practice, and how listening to a healing narrative in the altered state allows us to release hurt, anger, resentment and fear in profound and lasting ways.

By taking focus away from the linear story of what happened – the wrongs done, injuries rendered, mistakes made – we’re less likely to reactivate the original distress and stall progress.

Instead, guided imagery places awareness on physical sensation in the body, a narrative of metaphors, and the archetypal symbolism of the hero’s journey. It offers a gentle, incremental path to resolution, without resorting to denial, false acceptance or the suppression of true feeling.

Belleruth demonstrates several guided imagery experiences designed to heal the heart and create powerful change within – meditations that address abandonment, grief, betrayal, self-doubt, and posttraumatic stress, on the road to forgiveness.

As pastors, counselors and therapists, we look at the optimal timing of forgiveness, respecting someone’s readiness to forgive. Do we encourage people to forgive too early?  What about people who can’t or won’t forgive?  Is forgiveness always the best outcome?
