Guided Imagery & Mind-Body Healing website

Check out The Healing Mind website, produced by Dr. Martin Rossman, a well-known authority on guided imagery. The following are some excerpts from the website. Enjoy! Be Well, Janis



Welcome to The Healing Mind We are here to help you improve your health and your life. We will teach you how to use a power you already have to reduce your stress, improve your health habits, stimulate healing, and live with more wellness. It's a power that has been researched more than all other approaches to health combined, and it's complementary to all of them. It's safe, effective, inexpensive, and has side benefits instead of side effects! While you already have this power, you probably have never been taught to use it. It's the power of your mind/body connection.
