Lars Eric Unestahl, Ph.D.

The fundamentals of integrated mental training (IMT) – a longterm self-hypnotic training

Integrated Mental Training was developed by Uneståhl at Uppsala University during the 60:s. The name in Sweden was ”Mental Training”, while it became known in other countries as IMT (Inner or Integrated Mental Training) or ”The Swedish Model”) Characteristics:
1. IMT is based on a special state for change and development, characterized by an alternative state of consciousness (hypnosis - self-hypnosis, operationally defined as the “Inner Mental Room”), in which the brain way of working is changed in a quantitative as well as a qualitative way.
2. IMT contains a systematical, long-term and evaluated training of mental processes (Thoughts, Images, Attitudes) combined with an inner state of activation and emotions.
3. The goal of IMT is to define a ”better life”, to find the characteristics of and the criteria behind and to develope a training with the purpose of creating a ”better Life”.
4. IMT is future oriented, solution directed and action based
5. IMT also contains a special Philosophy and a ”new Lifestyle”. One part of that is to replace the clinical model (where interventions are problembased) with a developmental model directed to all people.
6. IMT also replace the old concept of ”insight”, where the present is a consequence of the past (”blocking insight”) with a ”developmental insight model”, where the present becomes a starting point for an attractive future.
7. IMT is applied to all areas of developmental issues as well as problemsolving. Some åprograms can variate depending on targetgroups and dependen on age. Special projects are continously running – from Life preparatory programs in preschool – to Life Quality programs for seniors.
