This article explores the healing process in three ways. First, it differentiates stress reactions from physical diseases and describes how the mind and body should collaborate to effect change and healing processes in the body. Second, it discusses how mind/body mechanisms are involved in healing and presents a case study in which relaxation and imagery techniques were used to increase awareness of the body and the release of tension and feelings stored in the body. “Positive imagery” (mental representations of reality) (Fezler, 1990) was used to help the client visualize being on the road to recovery. Third, the metaphor of a “wheel” is used to define the concept and theory of permission, which is then used to harness the mind in order to facilitate the healing process
