Seeing in the minds eye tends to atrophy as we get older. Spoken language starts taking over. One good way to get the muscle back is Image Streaming. Actually we are all very good at visualising. If we weren't we wouldn't find our way through the day.
Try this,
Think of a red rose.
Did you see an image of your big toe or did you remember what a red rose looked like.
Ah you thought of your big toe just now. Was it covered by a shoe.
Or try this,
Were do you sleep at night? Is the room carpeted?
To answer those questions you had to visualise. So the skill is there perhaps not as clear as you would like.
If you cannot see clearly with the minds eye, listen to the voice that is describing the scene and the feelings and the thought you have about those feelings.
It feels like you're making it up so sometimes it seems like the word comes before the image. Go with it and see where it takes you.
