HEALING A COMMUNICATION WITH YOURSELF


VISUALIZATION FOR FIRST AID


This script guides you through the psychological effects of medical
traumas. By repeating the behavior at the time of the accident, in the
minds eye, you remove the ill-effects of the emotions associated with
the upset. Positive reaframation is the key to the success of this
script...

Example: If you have burned your hand on the stove, you review in your
imagination all the things that happened just before, during, and after
the accident.

This reduces the fear associated with the event and again focuses your
attention on the injured part that you have avoided because of the
pain. The very "FEAR" and avoidance unconsciously block the healing
process, by decreasing the blood flow to the hands, feet, and injured
part of the body.



Let's Begin with the Script


Pick a time interval surrounding the injury, say five seconds before to
ten seconds afterward. Following one sensation at a time, review this
time interval. Include such sensations as pain, awareness of injured
parts, temperature, sounds, words, actions, attitudes, and thoughts.

Go over the sam time interval, being aware of all the sensations at
once, as they actually happened. Repeat the action in your mind's eye
and in pantomine, if necessary. (act out the experience) Pay
particular attention to thoughts and attitudes in this total sensation.

Repeat steps one and two until the pain stops or greatly diminishes.
This may take between five minutes to an hour.

Build up an awareness of the injured part and see it having been healed
and normal again. Repeat this frequently during and after the
emergency assist.



May you find the joy and happiness that you deserve, and may this text
help you in your healing process...
