Scan Anxiety (MRI)

This article talks about the idea that interior design could help mitigate MRI Anxiety. While I found it interesting, I wondered if they were going to say they had a design on the inside if the machine. THAT I would think might have a greater impact than what came before or after. You could be really calm and peaceful, but then when you hear a fire alarm blaring, it pretty much would be a miracle if any of the calm remained.

I wonder if they ever considered putting images on the inside. I wonder if it would mess with the reading at all? I would think something would be possible, but who knows what I don't know?

I think, though, that it is the internal mechanisms that need the most attention. Nothing in and of itself carries any weight of meaning. It is what we bring to it, and it is internally driven.

After my MRI, I was determined to make a recording that could help people do more than endure their experience. I created an approximate 30-minute recording that I have decided to offer for free. However, if one listens to it, and finds value, a contribution of some sort would be greatly appreciated. You can get more information here.
