NLP Master Practitioner Certification Course

• The client is a 52 year old woman who wants to lose some weight. She tried a number of different diets but they didn’t work for her and she found it difficult to restrict certain foods she loves because it made her feel deprived and depressed. A meta program was conducted to learn more about her and to find appropriate interventions.Toward/Away From:A: What prompted you to come in for an appointment? V: I just want to feel good. This extra weight seems to be holding me down and I want to have more energy and vitality. I think losing weight is a good step in the direction of being healthier.

  The client appears to be a towards person. She talked about losing weight as moving towards better health, energy and vitality. Therefore, when working with her I would frame weight loss as an opportunity to move towards a healthier body, as a way to feel better and have much more energy.

  Internal/External

  A: How would you know if this was working for you? What evidence would you need? (This seems obvious because weight loss would be evidence, but I wanted to see how she thought about it)
  V: Well, I’d lose weight, but more importantly I would feel good about myself. I would feel good in my body. My clothes would feel better on, not as tight. I would have more energy. I’d just feel a lot better.

  I prompted a bit further just to see if there were external factors.
  A: Is it important to you how others would then see you?
  V: It would be nice if I got a few compliments, but that’s really not why I’m doing this. I just want to feel better.

  The client appears to be pretty grounded in the internal framework. So, knowing that, I would approach change as something she could feel good about doing. Moving toward being healthier is something that would support feeling good inside, feeling good about herself.

  Matching/Mismatched

  A: What kind of clothes do you like to wear?
  V: I like all kinds of clothes, but mostly I like things that are unique and different. I like to stand out.
  A: How do you feel about the way other people dress? When I went to Catholic school as a child, we all had to wear uniforms and look the same.
  V: That must have been awful! I would really not like that. I think people should be individuals and unique … kind of like snowflakes.

  It appears that the client leans more towards liking differences (mismatching) than wanting similarities. It also seems that she is a bit independent. As we continue the conversation that becomes more apparent. So, with losing weight I would point out how she could embrace her unique body and adorn it in any way she chooses to express her individuality. We talked a little bit about all the different kinds of clothes she could then wear.

  General/Specific

  A: How do you see this process unfolding?
  V: I don’t have a clear picture yet. I usually feel my way along and trust the process.
  A: Tell me a little bit about your goals.
  V: I’m not a real goal oriented person. I like to just see how it goes and then go from there.

  The client appears to be more general. So, I would not be concerned so much with going into specific strategies or laying out a specific plan of action. Instead, I would check in with her along the way and see how she feels about what we are doing. Since she is also internally focused that would appear to be how she can access our progress.

  Once/Several

  A: How did you decide to come and see me? (the client is actually a friend, so I had to reframe this question a bit) If you didn’t know me, how would you decide to come to me for weight loss?
  V: I would ask around for referrals and see who was good. I’d also research NLP to see if it worked.
  A: Would you ask a number of friends or just one?
  V: Oh no, I’d ask lots. I like to really investigate stuff before I decide to invest in it.

  The client appears to be a several oriented person. She likes to get lots of referrals and do research before she decides to do something. This seemed a little unusual because she is a general oriented person and doesn’t necessarily need to plan things out. However, people are wired differently so maybe in some areas she trusts things to just unfold, but with practitioners she wants to know she can trust them. So, with her I would reiterate several times how powerful these techniques are and give her access to research and testimonials on NLP and weight loss. I would also work on building rapport and trust since that seems to be very important to her.

  Independent/team player

  A: When you do a something, how do you prefer to work? V: I like to get into my own space and work from there. (the client is a potter) I prefer to work alone in my studio without distractions.
  A: Do you ever like to collaborate on projects.
  V: I’ve tried that a few times, but it doesn’t work so well for me. I get into a zone and like to follow my own flow.

  As I noted earlier, the client seems to be very independent. This also brought some more light into just following the flow instead of having a definite plan of action. Perhaps the artist in her trusts the process to unfold more naturally.

  So working with her with weight loss I would emphasis that she is making it happen, she’s in charge and she can naturally and easily loss weight as she connects to her body and discovers how good it feels to be lighter (She also seems to be kinesthetically oriented) and how good her clothes feel on her body. I would not suggest weight loss support groups or rallying her friends. She seems to need to source her power from within.

  In time/through time

  I asked her to point to the past, present and future. She pointed behind her for the past. She said the present was all around her and circled her body and the future was to the right in front of her. Knowing her locations, I can use that in the future when we do a time line.

  Contemplative/Action Oriented

  A: Would you say you were a thinker or a doer?
  V: I think a lot about things before I do it. I like to gather all the information. I’m sometimes slow in getting things down … a bit hesitant. I eventually get to doing things but it kind of happens all at once after all the pieces are in place.

  The client likes to think things through before she takes action. She needs all the pieces in place and then it seems she can step into the flow and let things unfold. There’s a lot of preparation and contemplation. So, with her, I would take plenty of time to set the foundation for change. I’d give her lots of information and let that settle. I’d also check in with her around pacing and see how fast or slow she wants to go. When we do a technique, I’d give her plenty of time to integrate it and let things naturally unfold. It will require me being more in the moment with her and following her rhythm.

First, we had the volunteer imagine she was stepping forward on to environment and noticing what came up. I asked if her environment supported getting more clients.

She noted that because she could not afford an office just yet, she was seeing clients in her home. She felt that her home although nice did not present a professional environment that might attract more clients. She thought perhaps not having an office was in her way. Yet, at the same time she really liked the independence of being able to work from home. She wondered if there was a way to work home and get the kind of clients she wanted. She also wondered if there was a belief system in the way (which we explored later).

Next she imagined stepping forward onto behavior and noticing anything around how her behaviors supported her building her practice. She noted that she tends to get distracted at home and doesn’t always do what she needs to in order to do outreach and market herself. She also notes that she does not like the business aspect of her work. She finds she has lots of ideas but doesn’t know how to implement them. She says she gets overwhelmed with all the things she thinks she has to do and ends up doing nothing. She also mentions she doesn’t believe she can get enough clients, doesn’t have the confidence to support that (again beliefs show up). This would be a good place to do a swish pattern to help her move into a more confident successful business person (will do that later).

We move forward to capabilities where I ask what capabilities she already has that will support her in building her practice. She talks about all her training and education (she is a licensed therapist). In what was missing, she again noted business skills and time management. The fact that she hates marketing might make a godiva pattern useful to associate marketing with something she actually enjoys doing.

Next we stepped in beliefs. This was fertile ground and we gathered a lot of information that seemed relevant to her situation. I asked what beliefs she had around getting more clients and building her practice. She said she didn’t really believe that anyone would want to work with her.

Intellectually she knew she was competent but deep inside she remembers always being told that she was not good enough. She feels she holds that belief in a way that affects her confidence. She also believes that in this economy no one will want to spend the money. Additionally, she lives in an area with lots of therapist and believes that there is not enough money or clients to support her practice. All these beliefs affect her ability to take action (this points to how higher levels affect the levels below). A few thoughts on interventions are doing a visual squash combining anchors, a swish pattern to change identity and working with time lines to shift the past and create the future towards what she wants.

We moved into indentify and discovered that she identifies as a healer more than a conventional therapist. This was important because perhaps working with old models is not a match for her and finding out who she is and how she wants to create her work in the world will help her align with building her practice. This may also affect the level below of beliefs because maybe she doesn’t really see herself doing what she thinks she is suppose to do so it is not in alignment with her true beliefs or values. We can use a swish pattern to bring in her true identity as well as a timeline to build her future the way she wants it to be including past successes in the realm of who she truly is and how she wants to be identified.

Finally, we move into spirit. The volunteer has strong spiritual beliefs that will support her making changes. She believes she is supported by a higher power and that she has purpose and value in this world. She also believes in service which is aligned with her profession. Here we can tap into her spiritual connection to support her in serving in the world.

In checking in around the levels and all the information we have gathered both the volunteer and I agreed that the biggest blocks are in the area of beliefs and that is where we will begin the work.

• Contemplative / Action-Oriented His actions are almost limited to read the success of other people. He goes to libraries, to study the success of successful people, he reads a lot on the Internet about them too. However, non of these ideals he is willing to copy, he just complain that they could and he could not.
• In time (in the moment/here and now) / Through time (sees the entire timeline) He is living in the moment. He sees what has to be done now and what he planted in the past week for doing this week. He is not planning far into the future. He says, that the time changes so fast, that any planning longer than a week is outdated when we are there.
• Independent / Team player This cannot be clear distinguished, because he is working independent, but he needs to complete many others, which in turn are often then the blaming part for his limited success.
• Once / Several times While he hear something and is quickly excited, a real implementation takes a long time and needs to be confirmed from several sides. A single source of information does not impress him.
• Global (general) / Specific He can imagine the big pictures, but fears the details.
• Matching / Mismatched He sees matching parts easier and mismatching parts as a threat.
• Internal / External He is an internal person. He does not care what other say, as long he gets the little success.
• Toward / Away from He is away from challenges oriented.

1. loose the jealous look at successful people
2. finds something that he can do to have more success
3. finds himself have mastered that success

1. gathered more detail information with examples to the above list of Metacharistics. I observed him carefully and found that he is a VAK type.
2. We started with an exercise (swish pattern), to bring him into the stage that success is good. I used the picture of him now and showed him his ideal outcome person. I let him VAKOG all of the current picture and then the VAKOG picture of the ideal person. I let him flip between the pictures several times, whereby I altered some questions, like how would that change your V, A, I, O or even G attributes. He could really feel the change by himself and felt very good afterward.
3. After a rest we started with the circle of excellence Here I made him feel that there are no obstacles, that he can do it, because he has all excellence helpers around him. There is nothing that can go wrong anymore. He is in good shape. I anchored that with the OK-sign.
4. After another rest we were talking a little bit social we went back to the swish- pattern and tried it again, this time with the knowledge that the circle of excellence gave us all the missing parts and that we can now finish that project. He used the swisch pattern with the OK-sign. He was really excited, full of energy, wanted to rush out immediately, just to work on his project.
5. After 2 weeks he told me that the new project is going well, that he can see months ahead and that even the relationship with his wife improved. She is also more supportive to his work.

I revealed some names of the techniques we can use and told them with a sentences or two how that would benefit in which cases.

They invited me to come again to speak more about it and I answered, that I will record some Youtube videos soon, which they can subscribe to. And I might need some actors for these movies. There was no single one left who would not like to volunteer.

1. VAKOG questions Ask questions about VAKOG to anything below


2. Ask Meta characteristics to any questions


3. Make columns to three areas and ask for words which fit into that column.


4. Use magic words

• What made you come to me? What do you expect I can do for you?


• If I can find out the challenges you are in and I give you solutions for them, would you cooperate with the solution?


• How important is it for you that I help you to solve your challenge?


• How would you define your current challenge?


• Give it VAKOG


• Who is influenced by your challenge?


• Who would benefit if you can conquer your challenge?


• How do we know that you have conquered your challenge? What would be a good test?


• When do you want to be free of this challenge? Say a day!


• What would change to your surroundings when you conquered your challenge?


• If we find on the way that there are multiple challenges at the same time, how would you like me to proceed? Remove one challenge and work on the next or find a solution to cure all challenges at once?


• How many sessions are you planning to book and in which time interval, so that I can prepare my treatments accordingly.


• What moved you to work with a practitioner of NLP?


• How will you know that you reached what you want?


• If you reached your goal how would that effect you and the people around you?


• What stops you of having it reached already?


• What resources do you already have and which do you lake of?

The beauty of using the computer is that I can change colors, brightness, pictures, movements and display lengths as I wish. I can even focus on a spot in the picture by using a spot light on a certain part of the picture (brighten it up). I can swish the pictures with different speeds. I can repeat it as long as the client needed.

We can change the parameters on the spot and experience differences. We can speed up and slow down.

The computer animated technique is a way I will do if time is available and I can prepare for it in advance.

1. Independent – she presents as highly independent and only enjoys being with others in a one-on-one situation; although, helping others and being of useful service to them is her main concern in all she undertakes, she likes to be the one in charge. She presents with a dominant, self-assured, leader-like personality.
2. nternal – highly so; no mention whatsoever of looking to others for guidance. The client states that she relies heavily on her intuition to guide her in all her decision making. In addition, she presents as being highly introspective.
3. Matcher – when asked to describe her fingers, the client focused solely on the similarities. When asked to tell about their differences, she struggled and was only able to find one thing to discuss (their length).
4. Once – the client has a lot of trust in her instincts and the “magic” of her life to bring her exactly what she needs, so she only needs to hear one reference or gain one referral and makes decisions quickly based on this.
5. Through Time – Although the client professes to be only in the Now, testing reveals that she actually does focus predominantly on her past and present as well as some eye to the future.
6. Toward/Away – This was very difficult to elicit from her. Any angle with which we came at it, she was staunch about saying “I don’t go toward or away, I consider it to already BE.” But, in the end, we discovered that she has tended to (throughout her life) been a “toward something” person, although it depended upon the specific situation, so she actually works easily both ways, but slightly more “towards”.
7. General/Specific – the client does relatively equally well with both, but her first focus is always “general”, she sees the overall essence or picture, then focuses later on the details.
8. Thinker/Doer – the client is very much a planner. She likes to know where she is going ahead of time, feels much more comfortable with a clear plan and picture of how a thing will get done. Once she has the plan in mind, she is quick to take action on it. So, she is equally both.

I was careful to include her opinion and her okay on each proposed method (as it was noted that her highly independent nature can very easily become defensive if it is perceived that someone is telling her what to do). Here is where the magic words facilitated things greatly. Example: “With this particular technique……you will be learning hands-on something new about yourself and your inner workings. And it’s always so much fun for you to learn new stuff because, of course, you trust yourself to easily gain much from each new experience. These methods will be slightly challenging, which again will be fun for you, and realize that the people who put this NLP stuff together think a lot like you do, they see the world much as you do, and they work hard at applying what they know, the same as you. I’ve noticed that you really enjoy actually doing, hands-on, the things you are learning, practicing and applying them to yourself, so this method is perfect for that. These methods and this program/plan that I’m presenting to you are designed for you to experience fuller health which will enable you to be of better service to others, to continue to serve a useful purpose in the community, to help others with all the knowledge you have, etc.”

Although the client readily accepts things, she does have a need to clearly see its purpose first (so things need to be presented in this way); if it does not present with a valid profound purpose for her, she will tag it as superficial and frivolous and will not waste her time on it. And once the client has made up her mind about something, there is no convincing her that it is otherwise, so one must be on “their game”, so to speak, which is a wonderful challenge for the practitioner!

SESSION 1:
Intake, progressive relaxation/mild hypnotic induction (for energy boosting, as the client was beginning to tire 2/3 of the way into the session) and Metaphor. Some of the ways in which the Meta-programs were used in the intake are listed above. I personally came to realize that the Meta-programs give valuable information and guidance as to how to better construct hypnotic inductions and metaphors to suit each individual client. In the client’s case, focusing on her personally (independent) and giving some overall guidance/steps (thinker), but forgoing a lot of detail (general) was powerful. I used a color induction (visual, esp color) that utilized energizing the client’s chakras (actually feeling the chakras opening-kinesthetic); focusing mostly on the similarities (matching) of the chakras (strengths, shapes, etc.) and boosted them all with VAKOG. We also had her be in charge of choosing the rate at which she opened each one and its level of brilliance, etc (independent).

I then matched various things in a metaphor, included animals and helping others, and related the story to her past, present and future (through time). The metaphor was designed as a pre-conditioning tool for work to be reiterated in the next session.

SESSION 2:
Time Line, NBG, Circle of Balance with anchor installed. We worked with a time-line, having the client go into her past when she had good balance and bring that forward as her ideal for the NBG. Here we utilized her meta- program attributes of being through time, toward and a thinker. Also, since she was focused on and excited about doing a Past Life Exploration (in a possible later session), she was told that this time-line method would pre-condition her for that work; this gave the method a useful purpose (very important to the client as revealed through the meta- programs). Using herself (independent) as the visual in the NBG, was more powerful for her then looking to someone else to emulate her desired state (of better balance). We then performed a variation of the Circle of Excellence and had her create a Circle of Balance into which she can place herself whenever she feels unsteady. We added an anchor (on the palm of her left hand) that she could touch to instantly transport herself into her Circle of Balance. This method was chosen based on the meta-programs as the client is self-reliant, wanting to do things for herself (independent) and likes to step “towards” or into something (stepping into her Circle). The anchor was installed because she likes to have tools she can implement for herself (independent).

SESSION 3:
Fast Fear Relief and Swish Pattern. The most important meta-program information I used in the Fast Fear Relief was “once”; so I had the client speak with another client (another client) who had successfully gone through this technique with me last month. The client was originally skeptical about including this as part of her therapy because she believes that her fear stems from a past life, so I needed to produce evidence that would convince her of this method’s power. In addition, I, personally, was concerned about using this technique because she has acrophobia (hence floating into the booth may pose a challenge), but felt that it would be powerful for her to hear another’s success with it and also if we could find a way to adjust it (esp since the client loves movies!).

Since the client is a “once” person who needs only one good reference, another client did the trick. We then utilized the client’s independent nature to address the challenge of floating into the booth. I left it up to her to find a way to get up into the booth and feel safe. She chose to go up sitting on a solid moving cloud (which helped her with her balance) via a short closed-in flight of stairs and the booth was a room with just a small window, otherwise was all behind a solid wall. I feel the meta-program knowledge helped to make this an accessible technique for her.

We ended the session with a Swish Pattern; her unbalanced self in front, her powerful stable self (visual taken from the NBG that we did last session) was in the back. This method was chosen, again, because it has limited practitioner involvement and leaves it to the client to do most of the work (independent, learning is fun, etc.).

SESSION 4:
Past Life Exploration (Regression) I won’t go into detail here, since this was not taught as an NLP technique. Suffice it to say, though, the meta-program information was invaluable to a successful journey.

I slowly meandered (guiding him) toward the table where a buffet was set up, listening to him along the way. In a moment when I knew it would be unexpected, I turned around, abruptly laid my hand on his solar plexus (his seat of personal power) again, anchoring him, and asked, “Oh, excuse me one moment, my friend, but was the wind all calmed down when you came in?”

“Yeah, mostly”

“Oh good, so the wind has relaxed a bit? Great! I’m sorry, continue on with what you were saying.” And I dropped my hand.

He started to speak, but I quickly interrupted again, “Oh, I forget what kind of guy you are? If you’re a vegetarian or not, because look (pointed to pizzas) would you prefer this piece full (peaceful) of pepperoni, or maybe you would be more satisfied with this piece full of veggies? (starting to speak more excitedly) Ooooo, or look at this quiche….yeah, this wonderful piece here, option B, this piece full of shrimp. You love shrimp, don’t you? Naturally, you would want that piece (peace)!”

When he was engaged with choosing his food, I went right into a story, “Ya know, the wind was really incredible today, beyond anything I’ve ever seen at this time of year. Although I’m glad it’s calmed down a bit now, I have to say that I seriously appreciate the passion with which it roars along sometimes. I mean, when all that fury is directed the right way, it can be the power to create incredible things. There’s a difference, ya know, between being in our Power and being in our Force. The Wind teaches us that.”

I put a slice of cake on my plate, rambling on without a pause, “Like this cake here, this piece full of ripples, reminds me of the awesome passionate controlled power of the wind. See how there are waves in the frosting? That reminds me of the desert, ….desert and dessert, isn’t that funny? (laughing)…the only difference is one “S”…sssss, like a snake, now there’s a calming sound, huh?! It sounds like the wind, doesn’t it?

“Anyway, realizing how the wind sculpts and creates amazingly beautiful patterns in the sand with its breath. God, my friend, the wind breathes so wonderfully sometimes, doesn’t it?! You have to admire that.

I don’t know if you’ve ever noticed how, if the wind is too harsh, it no longer creates these beautiful patterns in its relationship with the sands, instead it obliterates them. But, after the passion and fury of the wind dies down, there is left this experience of awesome serenity, this awesome calm and peacefulness for all to see and marvel at. Like a slow soft-speaking, gentle breeze on a hot summer’s day…. ”Easy like Sunday morning” (song quote by Lionel Richie), ya know? It blows your mind how free and unlimited, how expansive the wind is, especially when it’s in control of its self and its own power. The Wind has much to teach, ya know? That’s just really powerful stuff, don’t ya think, my friend?” (Can’t remember exact words, but it all went mostly like that)

1. Write the logical levels (environment, behavior, capabilities, beliefs, identity, spirit) on cards and place them on the floor within a foot of each other. Also, have the levels written in order on a board at the end.


2. Have the client walk from each one (walking towards the board) and elicit responses as to how each level benefits or disempowers them in reaching their goal.


3. When they have walked them all and are facing the board, ask them to explain what they see in terms of blockages (and strengths) at all the different levels.


4. Affirm their view and explain how there may be other levels that need to be addressed in order to fully reach their goal and give a plan as to how you wish to work with each one.

1. Have the client envision themselves standing on a small platform made of bricks. Some of the bricks are strong, but a few of them are weak and crumbling. They can feel that the wall is slightly wobbly. Ask the client to carefully look over the platform and count how many bricks need to be replaced for them to have a firm, solid foundation to stand on. As they do so, they may get a feeling for what each of these old bricks represents, such as a lack of self-confidence (if not, that is okay too). Have them let you know when they are done and tell you how many bricks they need to replace. While they are counting their bricks, speak to them about how these weak bricks each represent a lacking resource or quality in their life and that these are threatening to undermine the foundation they are standing on, so the goal is to replace these bricks with new, strong ones.


2. Have the client climb down off of the platform where there is a small red wagon waiting for them. They take the wagon and walk down the road. They quickly come to the center of a town and go window shopping. All the stores sell new bricks, but each one specializes in a certain type of brick (ie: one sells bricks made of self-confidence, another sells bricks made of abundance; patience; anger-management; love, etc. Each type of brick has its own color, weight, size, etc. (Intake should have given the practitioner insight into what qualities their client needs to boost or create more of for themselves and this should help them to guide the client along the rows of shops. For example: “Perhaps you’re in front of a store that sells bricks made of self-confidence now and perhaps you are drawn to go inside and get one of these new bricks”).


3. They place the bricks into the wagon until they have the number they need. They return to the platform. They begin to pull out the faulty bricks (it is easy, they slip right out, or perhaps they just crumble away when touched) and they slide one of the new bricks they have gathered into the empty slot.


4. Tell the client that “if the old bricks crumble into dust as you touch them, then you need to blow all that old brick dust away. Watch and hear the wind as it helps you blow the dust of these old bricks back into the open fields of the earth to become something new. If, on the other hand, you are slipping the bricks out, then know that there is a deep, endless well right next to you. Drop the old bricks into this well, watching and hearing them whoosh (note: practitioner makes the actual sound of it) away, down and down, to be recycled into something grand and wonderful”. Have them let you know when they have finished their wall.


5. Have them climb back up onto this new, solid foundation. Have them bounce up and down on it, feeling its renewed strength. Have them go into the future on this platform and see their future, as firm and solid as this platform.

Basically follow the exercise above, but instead of replacing faulty bricks, they will build their foundation from scratch. So, have them start out with a wagon, shopping for bricks in the center of town. The practitioner should use personal trance words and instill each brick with a strong, powerful positive attribute. Once the client has gathered all the bricks they need, have them walk over to a personal power spot ( a place in nature that they have found to be particularly powerful to them in the present or past) and build their foundation there. Climb up on it, etc.

ADDITIONS)

The practitioner can incorporate use of timelines in either of these also.

b) Sliding Walls

For people who are relatively inaccessible due to the walls or containment fields they have built up inside/around them (usually out of fear and/or for protection). Esp those who wish to be able to lower their walls at will, but fear holds them back.

1. Begin by doing a classic Swish Pattern (with regular self in front and powerful self behind). Then have the client open their eyes.


2. Install an anchor; this anchor will be for the client to use. Tell them that whenever they touch their thumb and forefinger together, this is a “button” that either lowers or raises their wall of protection. 3-5 times have them remember a time when they felt they were in complete control of their life or a situation, so in control that they had no need for any walls and have the client anchor each time (open and close eyes between each anchoring).


3. Have them close their eyes and imagine themselves surrounded by a solid wall (VAKOG it). Have them push their button (anchor, forefinger touches thumb) and watch as the wall becomes translucent, almost see-through. As it does, have them see their self growing into their powerful self the more see-through the wall becomes. Then have them push the button and watch as the wall becomes solid and opaque again. Repeat this 2-4 more times, more quickly each time. The more they use their control button, the easier and faster it is fro them to change the wall, until they can do it almost at will. Remind them that they are powerful in their life and that they are the one who is always in control. (Watch to make sure the client is firing their anchor every time they change the wall; if not, remind them to do so).


4. Have them open their eyes and close them again.


5. Now, have them push the control button and watch as the wall very slowly lowers itself into the ground….all the way down. (VAKOG it) Remind them that they are well-protected because they can raise the wall any time they need to, but to just practice letting the wall lower fully and then, pushing the control button again, raising the wall to full height. As the wall lowers, they can see their self growing into their powerful self , growing bigger and bigger the lower the wall goes. Repeat this lowering and raising 2-4 more times, more quickly each time. Again, the more they use their control button, the easier and faster it is for them to lower and raise the wall, until they can do it almost at will. Hear the sound it makes (maybe it sounds like elevator doors opening and closing) as the wall slides up and down. Remind them that they are in control. Have fun lowering and raising your walls; like having a remote control to open and close your drapes….it is easy, effortless, and tons of fun!


6. Open eyes. Tell the client that they now have this wonderful tool that they can use any time they want to. Any time they need to, they can simply “push the button” and their walls will either lower to allow their powerful self to emerge or they can raise the walls as needed.
