Visual Imagery

When you visit the dentist, do you notice the pictures on the wall and maybe even focus on them while your teeth are being cleaned? Then you’re subconsciously using visual imagery to deal with the situation and relax. Your mind is a valuable and powerful tool, which can be made useful when you’re dealing with stress or trying to solve a problem.
If you have difficulty focusing or imaging something to focus on, mandalas can make visual imagery easier for you. Mandalas are intricate fabrics full of images, and they come from the Buddhist religion. Placing one of these on your wall in a sitting room can provide you with a place to relieve your stress and relax your mind.
