Description

This innovative volume introduces an integrated relaxation program that incorporates physical, cognitive, and imagery-based techniques to reduce stress and promote health. Erik Peper and Catherine Holt discuss principles of holistic health, and present structured exercises that individuals can compete at their own pace to guide them through the process of self-exploration, behavior change, and healing. The text offers practices for dynamic relaxation, diaphragmatic breathing, and hand warming, and features cognitive exercises for changing internal language, mental rehearsal, and self-disclosure. The book concludes with a step-by-step integrative strategy that guides the reader in achieving self-healing goals through imagery and behavior change. A series of log sheets and thought-provoking questions encourage insight and promote growth. “Creating Wholeness” is an easy-to-use manual designed for self-help, small group sessions, or classroom instruction.
