Imagery part 1

It refers to using all of one's senses
to create or recreate an experience in one's mind.

For example:

1)visual( pictures)
2)auditory(sounds and self-talk)
3)kinesthetic(emotional and physical feelings)
4)olfactory(smell)
5)gustatory(taste)


“Although you can train your body physically by sheer persistence, it is much harder to train your mind...All this visualisation did not come to me in a flash. I had to work hard at it, and learn how to use it."
---Sally Gunnell, Olympic Gold Medalist and World Champion Hurdler.
