'''Stage 1''' is "Image Generation". This involves generating mental imagery, from [[memory]], from [[Fantasy (psychology)|fantasy]], or a combination of both.<ref>

'''Stage 2''' is "Image Maintenance". This involves the intentional sustaining or maintaining of imagery, without which a mental image is subject to rapid [[Decay theory|decay]], and does not remain for sufficient duration to proceed to the next stages.<ref>Kosslyn, S. M., Image and brain: The resolution of the imagery debate. Cambridge, Massachusetts: MIT Press, 1994.</ref>
 
'''Stage 3''' is "Image Inspection". In this stage, once generated and maintained, a mental image is inspected and explored, elaborated in detail, and interpreted in relation to the participant.<ref>Kosslyn, S. M., Ganis, G., and Thompson, W. L. (2001). Neural foundations of imagery.Nature Reviews Neuroscience, Vol. 2, No. 9, pp635–642.</ref> This often involves a scanning process, by which the participant directs attention across and around an image, simulating shifts in perceptual [[Point of view (philosophy)|perspective]].<ref>

'''Stage 4''' is "Image Transformation". In this stage, the participant transforms, modifies, or alters the content of generated mental imagery, in such a way as to substitute images that provoke negative feelings, are indicative of [[suffering]] and exacerbate psychological pain, or that reaffirm disability or debilitation, for those that elicit positive emotion, and are suggestive of autonomy, ability to cope, and an increased degree of mental [[aptitude]] and [[Human body|physical]] ability.<ref>
