Title:

Metaphorphosis | If an experience is worth 1000 words, a metaphor is worth 1000 experiences

As educators work toward integrating experiential activity into practice, kinesthetic metaphors provide experiences that meet each client where they are at. Research has shown that kinesthetic metaphors are powerful change agents for clients. Kinesthetic metaphors create greater change that lasts for longer periods of time. Kinesthetic metaphors work because they bypass conscious resistance, they activate trans derivational searches, and simulate associational memory and learning. The use of kinesthetic metaphors works best when they are intentional, isomorphic, and provide a successful resolution that provides insight to the client. This poster displays the integral planning and implementation involved in facilitating Kinesthetic metaphors.
