Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Biofeedback is a process providing a person with visual or auditory information about autonomic physiological functions of the body such as muscle tension, skin temperature, and brain wave activity through the use of instruments. Breathwork can open emotional channels. Music therapy uses music to address physical, psychological, cognitive, and social needs of certain individuals. Yoga focuses on body musculature, holding of postures, and proper breathing mechanisms.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
Imagery helps control or relieve pain, decrease nightmares, and improve sleep. It also aids in the treatment of chronic conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome. Increased anxiety and fear sometimes occur when imagery is used to treat post-traumatic stress disorders and social anxiety disorders. Meditation successfully reduces relapses in alcohol treatment programs.
