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. 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. **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.
Led by Erin Raber, MA, MT-BC, Board-Certified Music Therapist
