Great men are they who see that spiritual is stronger than any material force, that thoughts rule the world.
Emerson
Whatever we give our attention to, we attract. "Where thoughts go, energy flows." Therefore, the more deliberate we are in choosing our thoughts, the more we are able to focus our experiences in desired directions. Like attracts like, form follows idea and what preoccupies our thoughts tends to become our reality. Goal oriented creative imagery is a way of focusing one's mind to get what one wants out of life, be it health, happiness or prosperity.
Most people live, whether physically, intellectually or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being. They make use of a very small portion of their possible consciousness, and of their soul's resources in general, much like a man who, out of his whole bodily organism, should get into a habit of using and moving only his little finger. Great emergencies and crises show us how much greater our vital resources are than we had supposed.
William James
Therapeutic Imagery professional training and certification programs leading to qualification as a Certified Therapeutic Imagery Facilitator and a Certified Master of Therapeutic Imagery.
To train professionals in facilitating client access to the creative resources of their subconscious mind; to provide those professionals with imagery tools for use in assisting clients in the fulfillment of their lifetime potential; and to provide instruction in developing the mind/body connection for healing.
Certified Therapeutic Imagery Facilitators with the ability to guide their clients to access the inherent healing and growth potential of their physical, mental and emotional capabilities; and Facilitators who encourage and empower their clients to take an active role in the healing and growth process, stimulating the mind/body connection by developing proficiency in Therapeutic Imagery.
Welcome to the fascinating journey of helping your clients to understand and unlock the power of their own subconscious imagery! Learning a variety of Therapeutic Imagery tools, you will be able to help clients in their discovery process as they gain insight, direction, and empowerment from their imagery journeys. As a facilitator, you will learn to encourage your clients to take an active role in their healing and growth process, stimulating the mind/body connection by developing proficiency in imagery. The Therapeutic Imagery approach acknowledges the client's desire for self-direction. The meaning of the client's own personal imagery is honored and expanded. This acceptance helps clients move into confident independence. With Therapeutic Imagery Certification skills, you will facilitate clients to image their way to success as they positively move forward in life.
In this hands-on course you will learn by experiencing imagery journeys yourself, by working with others, and by demonstrations. You will find out the uses of imagery for pain control, stress reduction and healing, and a variety of general emotional well-being and success issues. Along the way and on track for the Imagery Master Certification, you will learn how and when to use and apply FreeStyle Imagery, Guided and Semi-Guided Imagery, Metaphysical Imagery, Mythic and Archetypal Imagery, and Transformational Imagery.
In grateful appreciation to the American Hypnosis Association for making this program possible, I look forward to a journey with you as we discover together the realm of infinite possibilities through subconscious imagery!

I loved this class so much. I think Ericksonian Hypnosis is so powerful and unique with simple to incorporate skills. This class was a lot to take in, I think it could have been split into two. I hope to continue learning and expanding on Ericksonian Hypnosis, it is my favorite so far.

2024-04-21 at 11:40 Pacific Time
This course is so rich and important for the work we will do. Incredibly important knowledge because it is certain that everyone will undergo stages of loss (or become stuck within them) at some point. We may see this in ourselves, our own networks, and in our clients as well. So glad that I took this course live as well. Can never say enough good things about Elaine as an instructor. The workbook is pure gold too, so organized and thorough, Thank you Elaine, HMI, and AHA!

Susie kept me very engaged all throughout the 2 day course. She gave a lot of handouts and examples that will be very useful in the future. She was very thorough with all of the information and I liked how she would screen share the workbook so that we can all follow along and successfully go through all of it. I think that there should be more instructors like her with those teaching techniques, it was by far my favorite type of learning with a lot of positivity and answered all of questions with great detail. This was my favorite class and now I feel confident to start taking in weight loss clients.

I loved this weekend course. Susie Kappas is so inspiring, and really has so much insight and helpful guidance and provides so much in the "how, why's, and wherefore's" of helping clients change their lifestyle in relation to food/weight. I have so many gold nuggets after watching the video's and attending the live class and have implemented many of these methods in my own life as well.

This course was fantastic and more than just weight loss. I knew everyone was going to spend a lot of time both seeking and giving advice on food and health, but that`s okay. This course can really be applied to so many things because it aims at habit replacement, creating well-formed outcomings, and helping the client to envision their ideal self using so many different modalities. It will be something I refer back to time and time again.
