I wasn't entirely sure where to put this, so if someone can figure someplace more suitable, it would be appreciated.
I'm looking for a technique a teacher of mine used in class a couple of years ago.
She told us to close our eyes and relax, and think of a cup. What did it look like? Then a key, and a number of other things. You wrote them down, and the interpretation of what you imagined was a clue to how you view certain things in life. I'm trying to find it online somewhere but with no luck. I was hoping someone else might be familiar with what I'm talking about. Thanks.

I've heard of it, a way to find elusive images and feelings through analysis of common objects in your life I think?

I am not sure what it is called, but I am trying to see if I can come up with something about it.

Is there a way to contact that teacher and ask about it?

No, she left my high school and went to a school somewhere else. I didn't bother even trying, because I thought it would be easy enough to try and find it online--oops.

Carmen, I'm wondering if you are referring to visualization therapy.

I have no idea. This is what I remember:

Close eyes, and visualize that you are walking down a road. What does it look like? You find a a body of water. What does it look like? etc,

And for example, when you visualize the body of water, it is supposed to be symbolizing your thoughts on sex. Dirty puddle--you think sex is dirty.
I'm not really sure what it is. ???
