This pioneering book combines the power of metaphor and the dynamics of story telling. The metaphor is powerful because it parallels life; the story is dynamic because it captivates. When a metaphor is embedded in a story, the captivation of the listener activates the subconscious, and the metaphor is absorbed. The Power of Metaphor provides a collection of such resonant stories and guided visualizations for use with groups. Tracing techniques of story telling back to their original roots, it first promotes a deep understanding of the uses of metaphor, before presenting a series of enjoyable and thought-provoking stories. Each story takes the form of a guided journey that leads the listener along an imaginative path. Each forms a script for an inspiring story session that will enhance the learning of its listeners. Packed with original stories and visualizations, the Power of Metaphor is simply an invaluable resource for teachers, trainers and therapists. If you are looking for new approaches to group work, or if you are interested in the art of story telling, this book will illuminate and stimulate.
