Guided Imagery and Music (GIM) is a form of therapy in which music and imagery experiences activate inner reflection, memories, and feelings, to promote mental and spiritual well-being and health. While listening to selected music in a relaxed state, group participants express the imagery as it comes to mind through a creative process, such as drawing. A typical group session will include an initial discussion to help identify the focus of the session for each participant, followed by a guided relaxation, then music listening and imaging, and a group discussion to bring meaning to your experience and relate it to your life and your relationships.
**You are required to attend the first session of this 6-part program and as many additional sessions as you are able to.** Virtual Program via Zoom.
Materials needed: Colored pencils, oil pastels, or any other drawing materials you may have, and at least six sheets of white paper for each session.
Priority given to those who have not participated in a previous class.
Led by Erin Raber, MA, MT-BC, Board-Certified Music Therapist
