How to Visualize if You're Not Visual - ColorWorks Help Part 1

Patti Conklin talking to her clients about her energy work

First of all, don’t give up. Remember: limitations are perceptions we impose on ourselves. You are not limited if you are not a visual person. We just have to get a little more creative. 


Many people visualize well, so the exercise is given in that form. If visualization is not something that comes easily for you, then one of the following examples will align with your dominant sense to assist you in accomplishing the same purpose, with a variation of ColorWorks


The following sensory paragraphs are only an outline to suggest a framework for you, so you can customize the process to the thoughts of descriptions that will bring the most effective results for you.


 Visualize: Not feeling creative enough with your visualization? Don’t worry. People flourish with practice. You can borrow and customize advertisements, or memories, of things you’ve already seen to enhance your visualization abilities. A number of automobile advertisements show a car in a wind tunnel with faint mist flowing around and past it to demonstrate its aerodynamic design. Imagine your body as the car, and the mist moving slower, flowing not only around you but through you. Each time you inhale, the mist becomes thicker and more vibrant in color! It moves easily inside you, picking up the particles that will release through your mouth when you exhale. When it’s time to balance, the colors that move up through your body and release out the top of your head move quickly - just like a little fireworks display!

 Kinesthetic : If you are more kinesthetically inclined, then you will feel the colors. Feel yourself wrapped in the safety of white, within its glowing strength and power. Then imagine an actual “feeling association” between the color your body has chosen and the positive effect it provides you. Feel a warm and gentle release as the color moves through your body and out of your mouth. Feel lighter as the color frees you from your issue, or feel fuller and satisfied as the color gives you the comfort you’ve asked for.

 Auditory: If your dominant sense is hearing, then hear the different colors. Hear the white as it enfolds you in its pure, protective, loving tone. White might carry the deep, rich tone of a heavy bell for you, which, once rung, carries the note clearly as it harmonizes your body. The warm [use your own adjective here] tone of the color your body needs to assist you deepens its tone, as it collects particles and moves through your body. Imagine that your exhale clears each tone brought through your body. Imagine your body vibrating in perfect harmony with the white of balancing, just as though your body was in sync with a tuning fork of perfect pitch when your body’s balancing is completed.

 Smell: Imagine the smell of the new color as though it were a mist in the air, or microscopic particles of baking soda. Let it move from the bottom of your feet and up through your body, absorbing any negative smells as you release blockages. The final balance will bring a smell that represents harmony and balance to you.

 Taste: Imagine the white surrounding you as containing the sharp, clear crispness of a fresh apple, or perhaps the sweetness of marshmallow sauce. As the tiny white microscopic particles move through you, the taste of them changes and enhances you. Your body’s color of release may have the subtle taste of citrus sorbet, which becomes faint as it collects and releases your negative issues. The final balancing to harmony could be represented by a color hinting of a delicate balance, like a gourmet sauce simmered to perfection.

 Know: When guided by a sense of knowing, definitive thoughts come easily to you. Know that you’re relaxed and safe, wrapped in white. Know that the colors are moving through your body as you guide them. Know the exhale of your breath is clearing and healing your body physically and emotionally. Know deep in your cells that the rebalancing stage allows your body to fully incorporate the vibrational changes you’ve made.

 Direct Internally: If none of these options sound like they fit with your style, then you can always mentally talk yourself through the process. Simply say each step to yourself inside your mind. For example, “I am now surrounded by a cocoon of white light.” Once you’ve determined what color you need, continue by saying, “Purple is moving up through my feet and continuing up my legs and abdomen. The purple is now in my chest. The purple has changed shades of color as it has collected bits of negativity and is bringing them along. The purple is carrying the negativity out of my mouth.” Concentrate on taking deep breaths on both the inhale and the exhale, as you move the color.


No matter which is your dominant sense, you can still reap all the benefits of guided visualization, and if you’re still struggling, drop an email to patti@patticonklin.com and let’s see if we can get you on the right track!

It’s easy to get defensive when your partner changes. But curiosity is what keeps intimacy alive. When you lead with curiosity, you're saying: “You don’t have to shrink for me. I want to know the real you—even as you evolve.”

You don’t have to love the same hobbies to love each other well. What matters most is respecting what brings your partner joy—even if you don’t fully understand it.

Change doesn’t have to pull you apart. But silence will. Keep the lines open. Let the conversations be messy, honest, and ongoing.

When your partner changes, resist the urge to pull away or pretend nothing is different. Lean in. Speak up. Be curious, not critical.
