Images that attract and fascinate are at least a quick and immediate way to deal with and understand our complex inner life. At their best, images can actually teach and guide. They are packed with creative potential, and all images that occur to us or that move us have an evolutionary quality. Images are integrative; they are literally 'beyond words'-one need not be especially articulate to beautifully express the past, or imagine and re-imagine the future. The proof is in the students and how they improve. As I developed my process both me and my students were being transformed. In combining images and therapy I had literally found my calling, and this book charts the beginning steps. Source Imagery is about channeling that in-person workshop experience into book form, and The Magic Book® takes this process even further."
