Embodied imagination is a technique that takes dreaming as the paradigm for all work with images. From the dreaming perspective, an image is an environment in which we find ourselves. The Embodied Imagination technique has developed ways to flashback into the image, whether it be a memory from waking life or from dreaming, and explore the image environment from a variety of perspectives through feelings and sensations manifested in the body. The body becomes the theater for a vivid complexity of states, which leads along "alchemical" lines to profound transformation.
Embodied imagination in the work with dreams and waking memories is practiced individually and in groups in psychotherapy, medicine, theater, art and creative research. It is a rehearsal technique of the Royal Shakespeare Company in England, and applied in medical research and psychotherapy in Japan, China and a variety of locations in the Western world. It is also used for short-term depth exploration.
