Having seen in person most of these couples dance at better venues, this DVD did not do them justice. In short, it is a poor-quality production displaying the end of the era of British-defined/dominated International style competition ballroom dancing.
Excerpted from Staying Well with Guided Imagery Â© Naparstek, 1994 and Invisible Heroes Â© Naparstek, 2005. Guided imagery meditation is a gentle but powerful technique that focuses and directs the imagination in proactive, positive ways. It can be just as simple as an athlete's 10-second reverie, just before leaping off the diving board, imagining how a perfect dive feels when slicing through the water.
Imagery is a way of describing something symbolically, using words to create a picture in the reader's imagination. In the Close Reading paper you need to be able to recognise imagery and to consider how successful the imagery is at conveying to you what the writer is trying to express. Imagery frequently conveys more than just meaning. It is used to heighten the effect of language and is often an extension of word-choice.
