This book is about visualisation, or creative imagery.
Use it to improve your performance and skills in your everyday life - in your studies, in your hobbies, in your sports, and to raise your level of self-confidence in social situations.
Develop the self-confidence to increase your levels of achievement in a wide range of activities and remove obstacles to reaching those goals.
Visualisation can help us believe in ourselves - the path to many great personal achievements.
In Your New Image is about the use of visualisation, or creative imagery, to change how we see ourselves. Many people want to learn a new skill or improve their sports ability. They would like to change the way they see themselves, or how they believe others perceive them. Perhaps they want to feel more confident at work, or in social situations. In Your New Image will guide you through the changes you want to achieve in your own life.
People from all walks of life have developed skills through the methods described in this book. And best of all, it takes only a little time - perhaps three or four weeks, to begin realising the power and benefits of visualisation.
Others derived benefit from visualisation in their everyday lives - in pursuing their hobbies, in studying, in reaching their goals, in developing new skills, in finding harmony in relationships, and much, much more.
Visualisation is simple, effective, and long lasting. Visualisation is effective because the person creates an image of the desired result - to lose weight, to give up smoking, to feel easier and more comfortable with people, to feel comfortable at meetings or in public speaking, to fit in better in their society, to improve their round of golf or other sporting endeavours.
Visualisation is effective because the person has full control over the desired outcome. They see themselves talking to a small group of people, perhaps at work, or at a party. In their minds they can feel at ease. This is carried over to the real world because the mind accepts these images. The benefits are lasting.
Visualisation is not new. There are references to it in the Bible. It has been written about in academic books for many years - indeed decades. Individuals have tried it and benefited from it. It has been used to coach sporting teams.
Here are just some aspects of your life you can improve through the use of creative imagery:
feeling comfortable with the opposite sex
public speaking
overcoming shyness
attending a small meeting
feeling comfortable with work mates
increasing ability at work
improving skills, such as hobbies
improving ball games - golf, soccer or hockey
becoming better at running, jumping, cycling
eliminating some cases of stuttering and stammering
gaining general confidence
losing a fear of travel or flying
preparing for examinations
preparing for job interviews
The author's research over a number of years has shown more and more that visualisation can make big contributions to changing behaviours and attitudes without side effects, only benefits. It is inexpensive - indeed, there is no cost, other than finding the time necessary to do the required exercises. And it works!
The book In Your New Image shows readers how to create the desired picture of what they want to achieve. It discusses the merits of this safe, effective means to change their behaviour and even improve their sports performance and increase their ability in their chosen hobbies, even study. In Your New Image shows readers how to relax, how to create and hold the images in their minds. It discusses the expected improvement, and the limitations of visualisation.
The book takes readers through every stage of relaxation, picturing the desired results, holding that image and achieving what they want.
