Kirwan Rockefeller, Ph.D.
A Note from Kirwan“As a University educator, I’ve worked with hundreds of men and women just like you; people who are searching for confidence and more fulfilling, creatively charged lives. Do you want to be more confident and creative and live the life you’ve imagined for yourself? Using the tools of guided imagery, you can! With guided imagery you can direct the very thoughts and images in your mind so that you can reach new levels of motivation and success. It all begins with an image in your mind. I wrote this book to help you learn how to use guided imagery to overcome self-doubt and live a confident life. My own life has been a grand training ground for the power of creative imagination, and I’ve seen the effects of these simple tools on countless lives.” - Kirwan Rockefeller BiographyDr. Kirwan Rockefeller, Director of the Arts and Humanities continuing education program at UC Irvine Extension, provides professionals a unique opportunity to pursue the aspirations they may have awaited months or even decades to accomplish.
