One of the best sources out there

Gawain's work may be the best audiobook you can listen to for getting started with creative visualization. I had been using the technique Gawain describes for several months before I picked up this audio book. Based on the evolution and refinement of my own personal technique, I found hers to be totally "spot on". I am currently using it to work on a health issue that has plagued me for years and am having phenomenal success with it. My level of success is so great that it makes me wonder about the level of success that can be achieved with non-health related issues (i.e. are there any limitations to the use of this technique?...to which I'm sure Gawain would reply "no").The technique itself does not require volumes to describe. It is actually quite simple and one can only become a master of it through practice, practice and more practice. Gawain does round out her practical description with some supportive methods that may sound "new age"-like but are definitely important to its efficacy. The most important supportive technique would probably be "affirmations" - verbal mantras that are positive and supporting.If this book was only about creative visualization, it would be fairly short. As such, Gawain moves on to other, related techniques of affirmation and meditation. She also provides much of the metaphysical background she believes to be the supporting infrastructure to creative visualization. Much of this will sound extremely "new agey" to the average listener. But there is a practical technique here which can be used with great success and one does not have to agree with or even accept the metaphysical material she presents along with it. She even mentions this in the book.What I find so striking is that not only am I NOT a believer in any metaphysical or "new age" philosophy but my own belief system seems quite antithetical to the description of the "universe" Gawain proposes. A major part of Gawain's view of our reality might be summarized with the following statement: the universe is infinitely bountiful and full of perfect love and people are the purest expression of that perfection. My own "philosophy" might be summarized by stating that the universe sucks and people are the embodiment of everything that is wrong with it. Okay, maybe that's a little harsh. Regardless, the fact that I can use this technique with success is a testament to its practicality and simple effectiveness. Of course, Gawain might say that my "negative" beliefs are purely superficial and not representative of how I truly feel. Still, my ignoring of much of the metaphysical presented here shows how effective creative visualization can be regardless of one's beliefs.As evidenced by the one-star reviews here, there are people who simply can not "connect" with this technique. This is, I would assume, because the technique (as described), as well as most of the book has a very "new age" sound to it. For some, the practicality of creative visualization gets lost in metaphysical "mumbo jumbo." Perhaps a more popular approach to the technique would be titled "Creative Visualization and Your Stock Portfolio - Visualizing and Realizing 10-Baggers." But if people don't believe in the power of the mind and the power of our subconscious to dictate our experience in this life then why are they even listening to this book? That makes no sense at all! For those who are trapped in their ego, who do not subscribe to the premise that one's entire reality is painted by the endlessly looping program known as the subconscious and who never have experienced success with the technique, how do you convince them of its power? Unfortunately, I don't think you can. At some point, you have to realize that you're being "played" by your subconscious and you want the self-defeating game to end.

One of the very best books ever written on using visualization and meditation techniques.

Over the last 70 years I have read countless books on various forms of energy healing and when I saw this fantastic 176 page hardcover 25th anniversary edition book (Creative Visualization: Use the power of your imagination to create what you want in your life by Shakti Gawain) for a bargain price on Amazon I decided I had to have it.I found this book to be one of the very best volumes on the market for anyone seeking an easy and effective way to heal themselves in body, mind and spirit. Unlike other kinds of self-improvement type books where they take half the book just to introduce you to the methods and techniques used, this book begins almost immediately showing how visualization techniques combined with relaxation methods can help you.One of the many advantages of this visualization method is that it can easily be used with almost any type of energy and meditation system you may also be practicing. This wonderful book is organized into five easy to follow parts. Part one covers the basics of creative visualization explaining the basics of creative visualization. Part two goes into how to use this method. Part three deals with meditations and affirmations. Part four focuses on special techniques to make your visualizations more effective and the final section shows how to live creatively.If you are really into energy and mind improvement this is one book you should have in your personal library as a reference source. The simple affirmations alone are worth the price of this book and I love this book so much I intend to read other books by this author.Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Martial Art and Warrior Haiku and Senryu)

LOTS of unusual books

Great Selection. Just what I was looking for.

Just OK for me

I think this was her first book on visualization. Before I read this book I happened to read "Living in The Light," which I embraced and found so helpful on many different levels. When I wanted to learn more of what Shakti had to say I ordered this book. What I found was actually a lot of redundency between the two books. I like her message, but for me you don't have to repeat it in a different publication. A book should stand on its own clear unique message, but after reading three of her books, they all read about the same for me.
