Mental Imagery: Going to the Movies in Your Head [or not ??]

[Giulia]

Hello, Tony. Thanks for posting this blog post by Anna-Lisa Cohen.

Overall, Cohen's blog post provides a good overview of the connection between remembering the past and imagining the future. She argues that imagination is a powerful tool that can help us to plan for the future, set goals, and cope with stress and anxiety.

I absolutely agree that imagination is a powerful tool: in fact I feel it is one of the most powerful we have available.

Since I am interested in the Law of Attraction and manifestation, I have learnt that immagination is the key. From this perspective, remembering the past is not always helpful, especially if the memory does not reinforce our self esteem and positive expectation for the future. On the other hand, by going to the movies in our head to visualize positive expectations as if the desired events were happening now is of tremendous value.
