The 'Power Within" is a humanistic-transpersonal imagery technique that makes accessible to the client resources previously unavailable for personal growth, understanding, and change. This article reviews the theory, technique, and application of this technique within the context of psychotherapy. The literature review presents a wide range of theoretical explanations of the 'Power Within" experience. A detailed description of the technique provides a framework by which it could be effectively conducted within psychotherapy. Finally, three case examples are presented to demonstrate its therapeutic application
