The Christian Research Journal http://www.equip.org did some interesting articles on Theophostic Prayer ministry, which is a Christian version of guided imagery. The results might surprise you.

thx schoel-- interesting article.

but the following statement alone raises a lot of red flags for me:

Despite these modifications, there remains an undercurrent throughout his materials that pulls the reader to TPM-like healing and experiential knowledge of truth as the most direct avenue to spiritual growth.

it just seems so "new -agey" to me. call me old-fashioned.
