There are a lot of benefits of visualization and on this chapter you'll discover some of those benefits and why it's important to visualize. I’m sure once you begin visualizing, you'll discover your own benefits, but for now I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages I've found.
Visualization is a form of relaxation. The simple act of calming your mind and visualizing something cuts down the amount of tension you're constantly bombarded with on a day-to-day basis. So, if you don't visualize for any other reason, I advocate you do it for this one.
Visualizing something that you wish to have or wish to experience may bring great joyfulness into your life. We may not be in the position right now to do or have what we wish, but we may visualize it.
This is the next best thing to really having it or doing it. Our minds don’t understand the difference in visualization and really having or doing a thing, so it will react in the same way it would if you where really experiencing that which you're visualizing.
With visualization there are no restrictions. You can be and accomplish anything. You can live in the home of your dreams, drive the automobile you want, be married to the love of your life and travel to different places. Not all of us get this luxury right now, however when we visualize, we have the might to visualize whatever we want without limits.
If you quiet your mind to visualize, you're actually bettering your power to focus. You no longer are bonded by the restrictions of your day. The more you visualize, and the better you get at it the better your total focus gets.
You are able to gain inspiration and you will be able to become inspired to take action towards your dreams by taking the time to visualize them. We're more likely to believe in and to move forward towards or dreams, if we can actually see them as possible and visualization may do that for us.
Disadvantages of visualization are hard to find. The most common is the time it takes out of the day to do so. However taking this time can be greatly beneficial.
