Focused Music Imagery (FMI): Pathway Through the Psyche
Dimiceli-Mitran, Louise - Volume: 17
Focused Music Imagery (FMI) has emerged as a unique modification of The Bonny Method of Guided Imagery and Music that provides a safer, more contained imagery experience. Its hallmark is the use
of a focus that is mutually agreed upon by therapist and client and spoken over the music via a talkover to hold the client’s concentration on the topic. The history of FMI, elements of the session, music selection, procedure and concepts are discussed as well as case examples of supportive and reeducative sessions with mandalas.
