A Storyboard Radical Fire: a guided Imagery toolkitPrepared by: Said Osio for

The Guided Imagery Collective

May 2011

Your guided Imagery collective Pattern Language exercise tool kit

Example

Learning to work with this material is quite simple. Follow the map found in story board form for embracing and being in communion with that which is all around us, nature’s palette embedded in

the elements. This guide is for the element fire.

We can adjust our vision to small wonders and allow these wonders to transport our consciousness into the state of “paying attention and intention”, navigating these wonders into healing LIGHT.

SO DANCE IN YOUR PERSONAL GARDEN OF

HEALING MIRACLES!

Listening-in to the dancing fire element

Centering rings hold the senses directionally either inward or outward systematically deepening intentions into attention into the pure field of creative intelligence.

Centering ringsLight rays as color spectrums of energy embedded as landscapes or plains draw and move being-ness into nature’s dance.

Rays and sparksIntelligence is not a fragmented and independent process; networks of order are emerging within the ecological, human, pattern–seeking, living network.

Co-evolutionEchoes are repeating impressions reformulated by a timely dance and can be seen in most forms in nature from a speck to an particle field.

A spark releasing echoes

Or : Imagine centers as loopsThe rhythm of nature seems to conform to a definite pattern. Rivers flow in a timeless deepening reforming obstacles creating reservoirs.

Or : Imagine a bio-danceIn what distant deeps or skies Burnt the fire of thine eyes? On what wings dare he aspire? What the hand dare seize the fire?

Or: Blake poem- Idea : Imagine a centric ring

A thought impulse starts from the silent creative center within, as the bubble starts from the bottom of the sea.

Human intelligence is not a fragmented and independent process but rather a biological and social one. Meaning is constructed by matching new learning with existing patterns, creating new networks of internal and external connections. Healing may be defined as a miraculous unfolding of consciousness for one’s being in the world.

“Health is harmony, and harmony has no meaning without the fluid movement of interdependent parts. Like a stream that becomes stagnant when it ceases to flow, harmony and health turn into disease and death when stasis occurs. We are called to return to the concept of the bio-dance, the endless streaming of the body–in–Flux.” L Dossey M.D.

Tapping into deeper levels of guided imagery through the patterns of fire! This form of deep guided imagery is intentional

centering, an all-seeing vortex patterned and accessible when we are the simple observer, as on a field trip, we enter into fields of visual sensors (the pattern language of fire and light).

Our use of applying a palette impressed with the core fire’s essence - the the stuff of living systems deepens our healing consciousness as we train our inner focus as intentional focus. Once we integrate these light forms such as centers, boundaries, echoes, wholes, we begin to recover our own personal vitality as a living system, we re-learn and are re-informed . Tapping into this imaginal landscape is a function of a deep sensing aligned with a rhythmic breath (this is a calm modulated inhalation and exhalation).

We begin by applying our concentration on a thing recalibrating our focus into a micro field (our body). We exert a deep guided imagery, i.e. imagination. We imagine our field of vision to be engulfed in the element of fire/light. We are then called into the field of all living matter, either cellular as rings and rays, neural pathways as sparks or attention, which then allows us to be engulfed in healing as in the splendor of dawn bathed in light-scapes of spirit mindbody healing. We access consciousness through the oneness of the particular form we engage which then re-forms our energy.

The spark of sunrise – a ray of grace will fall into your heart!With inverted breath fan the spark of grace into Flame

5 easy approaches to the palette . A breath at a time measured and shallow on the inhalation receive on the exhalation ground being-ness into being present.

Greet the landscape, natures manuscript and selecthow fire/light is greeting you and focus, clear the mind and breath. The visual clues are pointers on the way

Receive (in-focus) the sense of the gift of presence in the environment engage the fire/light element by sensing its essence, form as a pattern, spark, a sound, ray, stroke, heat, a shadow, etc

Deepen the conversation by exploring the facets of nature’s gifts,Expand beyond foundation, as a minimalist the palette is this form, this pattern language

Allow yourself to be absorbed and flow and merge into this experience. It is a convergence a union. An invitation to enter into healing states

Integrate and merge the form into your being as nature and recover your healing essence … then simply drift into healing consciousness energy, apply this focus as healing energy to your centers and your whole being

A Storyboard: The visual language of fire

Storyboard:18 images a catalyst for your healing warmth of heart, glow of spiritThis visual palette is a form of visual yoga. Each form a pointer , a re-union (Yoga) combining mind and matter. Centers or natures wholesdrift into a landscape of echoes, repetitions, oscillations, shifting, sparking, and ringed halos re-entering back into centers as wholeness.Inside each is a story a holistic hoop as we journey in a sacred drift in eco-systems deepening; a sparking visionary like interplay into spirit mindbody – a celebration , a purification in a cellular healing field. We find our way, we enter healing energy and direct our passage.

Movement and oscillation, The Dance

Waves of light

Life-force, wholeness

Sparks of imagination

Oscillating, energy

All is luminous, interconnected, unbound - a primal matrix beyond the grasp of objectifying consciousness

Centering , interior warmth

This palette is your tool for deepening impressions. Carl Jung knew that deep transformation happens primarily in the convergence of images and breath. They can touch the unconscious—in one invasive and healing reconfiguration of the soul. It might also take the form of a song, a theater piece, a movie, a dream image, a sculpture, an inner vision, a piece of art, a sunrise. But after the encounter, you see things differently. As wayfarers it is your entrance into a healing sanctuary. The healing is the encounter the intention.

Effulgence and remembrance

Power at deepening and shattering-

Renewing boundaries

Deepening use of pattern in repetition

Simplicity and inner calm

Here it is in the light of the sun, memories of pre-dawn

Breaking Boundaries

Rage, Rage against the dying of the light. Dylan Thomas Consumed, consumed in the ashes of the bright !

She came riding through the darkForgetfulness is the darkness

Mindfulness is the Light

Deep into her heart she took fire into her heart

The upward draft, Prayer

I am, fire he replied. Calmly light this candle, brightening the face of the earth

Not steering the venial charts,

The void or shadows

This is your field guide! “Seeing the source of nature and her works, knowledge comes, it shines out like a (song) a long hidden sun and lights up our vision that self-being supreme”. Sri Aurobindo and a few lines thanks to Leonard Cohen

Igniting we rise to play a greater part we rise to play

This is the fate from which we start,

brilliance electrified echoes

. . In streams of light I clearly sawThe dust you seldom see,Out of which the Nameless makesA Name for one like me..

All busy in the sunlightThe flecks did float and dance,And I tumbled up with themIn formless circumstance.

Then I came back from where I’d beenMy room, it looked the same –But there was nothing left betweenThe nameless and the name. Leonard Cohen

The light came through the window,Straight from the sun above,And so inside my little roomThere plunged the rays of Love..

This light Palette is a

radiance, a song, the

language of visual

healing imagination of a

deep guided imagery. A

LUMINIOUS landscape,

healing WHIRLS of fiery

echoes, patterns,

oscillations, shifting,

drifting, smoldering

tides, puffs of light, of

splendid rays.

Greet your Inner sparks

“ What is life? It is the flash of a firefly

in the night.

It is the breath

of a buffalo

in the wintertime.

It is the little shadow

which runs across

the grass and loses

itself in the sunset.” Crowfoot  

     

Medicine begins with storytelling. Patients tell stories to describe illness. Doctors tell stories to understand it. Science tells its own story to explain disease. A continuous loop.

A Healer’s storytelling is a virtuous spiral, the language of creative intelligence; a visual healing language.
