Intuitive Appreciation and reflection of feelings, situations, choices and changes

Sometimes situations and challenges become clearer when we look at them in a different way.

  • Conventional language and media often obscure more than they reveal.
  • Personal feelings and choices are sometimes better approached intuitively.
  • These wonderful abstracts by hypnotherapist Gloria May are designed to help this process.

You can use them in a variety of ways. Some suggestions are below.

How can You Use these Images?

These images can be used in the facilitation of reflection, self-awareness, objectivity, improvement and development.

They can be used to prompt discussion and reaction, and they offer a different way to address certain issues and feelings that are often difficult to approach using conventional words and descriptions.

The pictures can also be used with children and young people to discuss and explore what these concepts mean, and what the abstracts represent.

Or the pictures can be used simply for personal private contemplation.
