We are living in a time of uncertainty, rapid change, and increasing demands on our attention, our bodies, and our inner lives. How do we remain grounded without withdrawing from the world? How do we find the inner resources that allow us not simply to cope, but to live with greater resilience, connection, and vitality?

Imagery International’s 2026 Virtual Conference, Grounding in Imagery: Pathways to Empower & Thrive, invites us to explore what imagery can offer in response to these questions.

Over three days, experienced imagery practitioners will guide participants through a rich variety of experiential approaches to grounding and empowerment. Together, we will explore imagery as a pathway to calming an overwhelmed nervous system, understanding the deeper roots of stress and burnout, accessing inner wisdom and intuition, working compassionately with inner conflict, reconnecting with nature and the larger web of life, and cultivating greater balance and wholeness.

We begin Friday evening by crossing the threshold into the imaginal world, exploring lucid waking dreams and shamanic journeying. Throughout Saturday and Sunday, six additional experiential workshops offer distinct but complementary pathways through mind, body, imagination, nature, and Spirit.

This is not simply a conference about imagery. It is an opportunity to experience imagery.

Participants will encounter practices they can use in their own lives and, where appropriate, bring into their professional work. Some approaches offer resources for those moments when we need to find our ground quickly. Others invite us more deeply into the body, the unconscious, our relationship with the natural world, and the inner tensions that can leave us feeling divided.

Across these different approaches runs a common question:

What becomes possible when we find our ground?

Perhaps grounding is not about becoming immovable. Perhaps it is about developing the inner steadiness, flexibility, and connection that allow us to remain present to life—even when life is uncertain.

Whether you are a therapist, counselor, healthcare professional, coach, educator, imagery practitioner, or simply someone curious about the transformative possibilities of imagery, we invite you to join us for a weekend of exploration, experiential learning, inspiration, and connection.

Come discover new practices. Deepen familiar ones. Connect with a community that shares an interest in the extraordinary capacities of imagination.

And explore how grounding in imagery can open pathways not only to surviving uncertain times, but to empowering ourselves and others to thrive.
