Your subject

Subject

Test, “Reveal the subject I need to do...”

My social dominance or inferiority (Preoptic Area)

How you are able, or not, to establish your own social place and dominion.

For example, can you stand up for yourself? Or are you dominated by others? Are you inferior? Are other people better than you? Do you normally feel intimidated, overlooked, or even used?

My thinking and behaviour for a reward (Anterior Cingulate Cortex)

How a certain way of thinking or behaving gets you some kind of reward.

For example, do you dislike something, but somehow can’t live without it? Do you secretly get something in return for your “unwanted” thought, feeling, or desire? Why do you really hang on to it? If you let go of it, will you suffer?

My self-identity and social place (Base Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis)

Knowing who you are and know where you ‘fit in’ with others.

For example, do you feel isolated from your own gender, age group, your peers, or your culture? Do you feel out-of-place or “different”? Do you know who you are, and what you are? Do you fit inside your own body, life, and existence?

My relationship to the outer world (Amygdala-Right)

Your ability (or lack thereof) to interact with everyone and everything else.

For example, how comfortable are you with the outside world? Does it threaten you? Do you want to isolate yourself? Have you learned that the outer world is painful or a threat? Can you cope with the outer world?

My relationship with my inner world (Amygdala-Left)

How you view yourself and whether you are acceptable in your own eyes.

For example, are you good enough? Do you view yourself poorly? Do the opinions and view of others effect you? Are you sensitive to other people’s emotions, and “take them on board” too easily? How solid is your own inner sense of security?

My instincts and assumptions (Suprachiasmatic Nucleus)

How you have learned to instinctively react and feel to thoughts and situations.

For example, do you instinctively feel or do something? Do you automatically assume you must act or feel in a certain way, to enjoy, or hate, something? Have you learned how to react in that manner because there’s no better way?

My motivation and self-control (Basal Ganglia)

How you are motivated to do or feel something, or to allow something.

For example, is there some deep-seated reason (or reasons) to feel, think, or desire something? Is this the only option? What motives are there, deep down? Is self-control a poor option? Will you suffer pain if you make a different choice?

My emotional awareness (Insular Cortex)

How aware you are of your own emotions, and the emotions of others.

For example, can you tell what you are feeling? Or would you rather be blind to it? Is it overwhelming? Can you tell what others are feeling, and are you able to empathise with them? Or are other peoples feelings unwanted?

The emotional goals I pursue (Caudate Nucleus)

How you act and feel in your pursuit of an emotional goal.

For example, do you secretly get something good out of an “unwanted” thought, feeling, or desire? Are you blind to seeing that something harms you because it provides something else along with it? Have you never reassessed the goals you’re pursuing?

The pleasure or pain I expect (Orbitofrontal Cortex)

How you expect to feel in return for feeling something, or for acting a certain way.

For example, do you assume and expect that others will accept you, or reject you? Do you expect that something will give you pleasure or pain? If you keep experiencing your “unwanted” thought, feeling, or desire, what do you expect it to give you?

Comprehending my experiences (Hippocampus)

How you are able, or not, to take in and comprehend your experiences in life.

For example, is facing up to life too much? Must you be blind to some of it? Do you feel confused or overwhelmed by your experience of life? Can you cope? Is comprehending life too painful? Would you rather avoid it?

Over-charged

Being over-charged means there is too much energy/activity in part (or all) of your body, like a nervous energy. Too much mind-chatter. Too much anxiety.

The “charge” is needed to figuratively help keep you together. If you let go and rest, you feel like you’ll fall to bits and collapse. A constant supply of energy is needed to survive.

Under-charged

Being under-charged means that when you are living through a problem, there is a lack of energy or activity in part (or all) of your body. A deadness. A lack of life.

Figuratively your body has checked out of the hotel. It’s dead. Your body is dragged behind your mind. Is it numb? Is there no drive (or no point) on having any energy?

Over-grounded

Being over-grounded means you are too connected to the harsh reality of life, your feet are too firmly on the ground. Reality is ever-present. You can’t escape it.

It’s like you’re too focused on the here-and-now, and cannot imagine any other possibilities. You are too literal, too concrete. You cannot “switch off” and escape.

Under-grounded

Being under-grounded means you are not rooted into the ground of reality. You have escaped up into the air, away from the harsh reality of life.

Reality is not taken seriously, or not dealt-with. You do not focus on the here-and-now. You escape to the imagination and fly away.

Over-bounded

Being over-bounded means your figurative boundaries are too strong. You are an iron fortress who cannot be influenced from outside.

You can’t allow yourself to show outer expression, or to connect with others. You struggle to empathise. You’re a thick-skinned solid fortress.

Under-bounded

Being under-bounded means you are figuratively thin-skinned. You have little or no protection against the influences of the outside world.

The outside world flows right through you, like you’re made from a fine material that the wind can blow through. Indeed, you’re easily blown about by others emotions.

By beginning this session I agree to the terms and conditions.

What do I need now?

Test, “Reveal what I need...”

Look at my past (1 of 2)

What’s this?

When you look at an age, you concentrate on what you felt, thought, and experienced around that time. Changing how you feel about your past, will also change how you feel in the present, helping you to grow out of whatever issue your past helped to create.

Test, ”Reveal the age I need to look at...”

Look at my past (2 of 2)

Find the age

Test while counting backwards (to age 20) until your body reveals the right age.
Type the age in the box below:

Look at my past (2 of 2)

Test, “Reveal which age...”

Look at my past (2 of 2)

Test, “Reveal which age...”

Look at my past (2 of 2)

Test, “Reveal which age...”

Look at my past (2 of 2)

Test, “Reveal which age...”

Done with this age

Test, “Reveal what I need to do...”

Replace this age

What’s this?

You can replace the entire age, or something you felt or experienced at this age, with something you want instead.

What do you want to replace?

Think what would you like to replace from this age. Everything? Or something specific?
Test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it below:

What do you want instead?

Think what you want instead (a different situation, a picture, a colour, a symbol, or anything).
Test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it below:

Close your eyes and imagine making the replacement. When done, open your eyes and take a deep breath.
Test, “Reveal if that’s enough: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, imagine it some more.

Keep it?

Test, “Reveal if I need to keep this somewhere?: Yes, No, Maybe.”
If you do, think where, and test, “Reveal if this is the correct place: Yes, No, Maybe.”
If it is, close your eyes and imagine putting it there; then open your eyes and take a deep breath.

Return to today

Welcome back

From this point, you are looking at the present-day again.

Look at someone (1 of 2)

What’s this?

We “pick up” traits, feelings, and beliefs from others all the time (especially from our parents). Sometimes these things support our issues. If you can rewire such influences, their effect on you will change. You will be free to make choices without their interference.

Male, female, or both?

Test, “Reveal who I need to look at...”

Look at someone (2 of 2)

Who is it?

Test, Reveal the male I need to look at...”

If “Other male(s)”, think who, and ask your body if that is correct.

If a grandpa, think which one (including step-parents) then test to see if it’s him.

Type what you call him/them:

Look at someone (2 of 2)

Who is it?

Test, “Reveal the female I need to look at...”

If “Other female(s)”, think who, and ask your body if that is correct.

Who is it?

Test, “Reveal who I need to look at...”

If “Other persons”, think who, and test to see if that’s correct.

If grandparents, think which ones (include step-parents), then test to see if it’s them.

Type what you wish to call these persons:

Done with person(s)

Test, “Reveal what I need to do...”

Replace the person(s)

What’s this?

You can replace the person(s) with someone else, or replace whatever you got from the person(s) with something you want instead.

What do you want to replace?

Think what you got from the person(s) that you would like to replace. Everything? Or something specific?
Test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it below:

What do you want instead?

Think what you want instead (a different situation, a picture, a colour, a symbol, or anything).
Test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it below:

Close your eyes and imagine making the replacement. Then open your eyes and take a deep breath.
Test, “Reveal if that’s enough: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, imagine it some more.

Remember this replacement?

Test, “Reveal if I need to keep a memory of this replacement?: Yes, No, Maybe.” The memory can be in your head, or a photograph, or a drawing, or something like that.
If you do, think where, and test, “Reveal if this is the correct place: Yes, No, Maybe.”
If it is, close your eyes and imagine putting it there; then open your eyes and take a deep breath.

Look at me again

Looking at you again

From this point, you are looking at yourself again.

Sensory techniques

Test, “Reveal what I need to do...”

Here we use sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste. For example, if your feeling was a colour, what would it be, and what would you change it to if you could choose? (“Change a sense”) Or, if your feeling was a colour, what would it be, and what does that reveal about how you feel? (“Interpret a sense”)

Change a sense

What feeling?

Think, what are you considering? Your issue in general, something already mentioned, or something else?
Test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Which sense?

Test, “Reveal which sense we’ll be using...”

Red
Orange
Yellow
Light green
Green
Cyan
Blue
Dark blue
Purple
Violet
Grey
White
Black
Multi-coloured
A skin tone
A gradient

The feeling is...

Think, if your feeling was a type of the sense above, what would it be?
Test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Change it

Let’s change the sense to one you want instead. The feeling is the same, but you are now choosing the colour/pattern/light/whatever that represents it. Think what you want it to be.
Test, “Reveal if this is what I want it to be: Yes, No, Maybe.” If it is, type it:

Close your eyes and imagine the first sense being replaced with the second one.
Open your eyes and take a deep breath.

Interpret a sense

What feeling?

Think, what are you considering? Your issue in general, something already mentioned, or something else?

The feeling is...

Think, if your feeling was a type of the sense above, what would it be?
Test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Interpret it

Think, why is your feeling that? What does it tell you about your feeling?
Test, “Reveal if this interpretation is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Physical techniques

Test, “Reveal which...”

These six techniques are designed to change your feelings through your physical body. They work by disrupting or muddling your normal way of thinking and feeling, helping you to ‘snap out’ of your current thinking pattern, so you can consider new possibilities.

Move my eyes

What’s this?

Repeatedly moving your eyes in a pattern while thinking of a feeling or issue helps to shake up a fixed way of thinking. It helps the mind break out of a set mindset and move on.

What to think about?

Think what you need to keep in mind. Is it your issue in general, something that’s already come up, or something else?
Test, “Reveal if that’s it: Yes, No, Maybe.” If it is, type it below:

Direction?

Test, “Reveal which eye movement I need: up/down, left/right, in circles, or any.”

Move your eyes

Repeatedly do the eye movements while thinking of the above. Use your fingers to guide your eyes if necessary. Do it until it feels difficult to keep the thought in mind.
Had enough? Test, “Reveal if that’s enough: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, do it a little more; if yes, take a deep breath.

Move my body

What’s this?

Repeatedly moving your arms or legs while thinking of a feeling or issue helps to shake up a fixed way of thinking. It helps the mind break out of a set mindset and move on.

What to think about?

Think, what do you need to keep in mind during this technique? Is it your issue in general, something revealed earlier, or something more specific?
Test, “Reveal if that’s it: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, try again. If yes, type it below:

Move what?

Test, “Reveal which area of my body to move: Upper body, Lower body.”
Then keep testing to find out exactly what to move. For example, if your body chose ‘Lower body’, you can test for your feet or legs. Then test which direction to move them in, such as forward and back, side-to-side, or in circles. When located, type it below:

Move

Repeatedly do the movement while thinking of the issue. Do it until it’s difficult to keep the thought in mind.
Had enough? Test, “Reveal if that’s enough: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, do it a little more; if yes, take a deep breath.

Tap my skin

What’s this?

Repeatedly tapping your skin while thinking of a feeling or issue helps to shake up a fixed way of thinking. It helps the mind break out of a set mindset and move on.

What to think about?

Think, what do you need to think about? Is it your issue in general, something revealed earlier, or something more specific?
Test, “Reveal if that’s it: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, try again. If yes, type it below:

Tap where?

Test, “Reveal which area of my body to tap: Upper body, Lower body.”
Then keep testing to find out exactly what to move. For example, if the answer was “Upper body”, you can test for your face, shoulders, chest, or arms. When located, type it below:

Start tapping

Repeatedly tap on the area while thinking of the issue. Do it until it’s difficult to keep the thought in mind.
Had enough? Test, “Reveal if that’s enough: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, do it a little more; if yes, take a deep breath.

Look at a flashing light

Do not use this technique if you, or anyone who may see your screen, has epilepsy.

What’s this?

Looking at a flashing light while trying to keep in mind a feeling or issue, has been shown to shake up a fixed way of thinking, possibly helping the mind break out of an unwanted mindset and move on.

What to think about?

Think, what do you need to think about while watching the flashing light? Is it your issue in general, or something revealed in the session, or something else?
Test, “Reveal if that’s it: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, try again. If yes, type it below:

Test, “Reveal which colour...”.

Test, “Reveal which speed...”.

Constant (no flashing)
Slow (x1 flash per second)
Medium (x2 flashes per second)
Fast (x3 flashes per second)

Click the button below to watch the flashing light. Watch it while thinking of the above, until you can’t keep it in mind easily.

Test, “Reveal if that’s enough: Yes, No, Maybe”. If not, watch more. If yes, take a deep breath.

Change my body language

What’s this?

Your body language expresses how you feel. By changing it to what you want, you can show your brain how you want to feel. It can break a vicious-circle, or habit of feeling. Body language includes your facial expression and any gestures you make with your hands.

What to think about?

Think, what do you need to think about while performing this technique? Is it your issue in general, or something revealed in the session, or something else?
Test, “Reveal if that’s it: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, try again. If yes, type it below:

What’s your body language now?

While thinking of your issue, make a body language pose (remember, body language includes facial expression and gestures).
Think, what does this body language reveal about how you feel? Do you look open, defensive, scared-looking, confident, timid, arrogant, sad, or something else? Use a mirror if necessary.
When you’ve thought of something, test, “Reveal if that’s right: Yes, No, Maybe.” If no, try again. If yes, type it below:

What do you want?

Think, what body language (including facial expression and gestures) would you like to have instead, when thinking of your issue?
When you’ve thought of something, test, “Reveal if that’s right: Yes, No, Maybe.” If no, try again. If yes, type it below:

Practice it

Practice your chosen body language pose for a few moments while thinking of your issue.
Test, “Reveal if I need to practice it again: Yes, No, Maybe.” If yes, practice it again.

Reassure myself

What’s this?

This is an opportunity to pause and reflect, to calm yourself, to say soothing words to yourself, and get some reassurance. It’s very useful if this part of your session is too stressful. It can also help you to understand what you’re experiencing, or to tell yourself what you need to hear.

Anything to say?

Think, do you need to say any reassuring words to yourself (if you are currently looking at a past age, it may be what you need to say to yourself at that age)?
If you have something, test, “Reveal if this is correct? Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Wrap your arms around yourself

Hold yourself by wrapping your arms around yourself, like you’re hugging yourself.
Close your eyes (say whatever you need to yourself) and take as long as you need. When done, open your eyes and take a deep breath.

Visual techniques

Test, “Reveal which...”

These four techniques use your imagination to see pictures or moving images. By representing your feelings as images, patterns, shapes, and pictures, we can help you to see things differently and to feel differently about situations and issues.

Recover a book (1 of 3)

What’s this?

You’re going to imagine that you have a book describing in perfect detail how you feel. Then you will imagine what the cover looks like. Finally, you’ll choose a new cover for that book. Changing the colours, smells, patterns, etc. on the book helps your brain to look at the contents of the book (how you feel) in a new way, helping to snap your mind out of it’s set ways.

What’s the book title?

Imagine you can see a book all about how you feel. Think, what is the book title?
When you’ve thought of something, test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If not, think of another title. If yes, type it below:

Recover a book (2 of 3)

What’s the cover look like?

Think, what cover does the book have right now?
- What are its colours, patterns?
- Is it hardback or paperback?
- How heavy is it?
- How strong is it?
- What does it smells like?

Type a brief description:

Recover a book (3 of 3)

What cover do I want instead?

The cover has been removed.
Think, what new cover do you want for your book instead?
- What are its colours, patterns?
- Is it hardback or paperback?
- How heavy is it?
- How strong is it?
- What does it smells like?

Type a brief description:

Close your eyes and imagine the book with the new cover, then take a deep breath and open your eyes again.

Keep it?

Test, “Reveal if I need to keep this book: Yes, No, Maybe.” If yes, pick a place, close your eyes, and imagine putting it there; then open your eyes again and take another deep breath.

Reframe a picture (1 of 3)

What’s this?

You’re going to imagine a picture representing the feeling or situation you’re considering. Then you will imagine what frame would go around it. Finally, you’ll choose a new frame. Changing the shape, design, colours, etc. of the frame helps your brain to look at the picture within (how you feel) in a new way, helping to snap your mind out of it’s set ways.

First, imagine your picture

Think, what is the picture of?
When you have an idea, test, “Reveal if that’s correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it below:

Reframe a picture (2 of 3)

What’s the frame?

Think, what frame suits the picture?
- What’s its colour? Is it patterned? Is it big or small?
- If you pick it up, is it heavy? Is it fragile? Is it hollow?
- If you touch it, is it rough or smooth? Hot or cold?
- If you sniff it, does it have an odour?
- If you lick it, is there a taste?
- What tapped, does it make a sound?
- Is it new or old? Clean or dirty?

Type a brief description:

Reframe a picture (3 of 3)

Replace your frame

The frame is now gone.
Think, what frame do you want around the picture instead?
- What’s its colour? Is it patterned? Is it big or small?
- If you pick it up, is it heavy? Is it fragile? Is it hollow?
- If you touch it, is it rough or smooth? Hot or cold?
- If you sniff it, does it have an odour?
- If you lick it, is there a taste?
- What tapped, does it make a sound?
- Is it new or old? Clean or dirty?

Type a brief description:

Close your eyes and imagine the picture with your new frame.

Keep it?

Test, “Reveal if I need to keep it: Yes, No, Maybe.” If yes, pick a place, then close your eyes and imagine putting it there. When done, open your eyes and take a deep breath.

Be like someone else (1 of 3)

What’s this?

You’re going to remember (or imagine) someone experiencing something you would like to experience, but could not. Then, you’ll imagine that you are magically taking that person’s place, experiencing exactly the same things. This helps you to see new possibilities for yourself.

Who do you need to imagine?

Think of someone else (real or imagined) who is experiencing something you would like to experience, but you feel you never could. Consider:
- What are they being?
- What are they doing?
- What do they want?
- What do they feel?

When you have a person and their experience in mind, test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type a brief description of who they are and what you see them experiencing:

Be like someone else (2 of 3)

Imagine yourself in their place

Close your eyes and imagine the person experiencing the same things as before, except this time it’s you with your face. You will do and feel exactly the same things in exactly the same way.
- See yourself doing the same
- See yourself wanting the same
- See yourself feeling the same

Again?

Test, “Reveal if I need to imagine it again: Yes, No, Maybe.” If yes (or maybe), replay it again in your mind. If not, click “Next”.

Be like someone else (3 of 3)

From a first-person perspective

Close your eyes and replay it one last time, keeping everything exactly the same – but this time see it from a 1st-person perspective, as seen through the eyes.
- You are doing the same
- You are wanting the same
- You are feeling the same

Again?

Test, “Reveal if I need to imagine it again: Yes, No, Maybe.” If yes (or maybe), replay it again.

Keep it?

Test, “Reveal if I need to keep this: Yes, No, Maybe.” If yes, choose somewhere, then close your eyes and imagine putting it there.
Take a deep breath.

Imagine a scene

What’s this?

Sometimes we are so set in our ways that we can’t imagine things being any different. If we could consider a new possibility, it may open us up to new ways of thinking and acting. You’re going to imagine how things could have been, could be now, or could be in the future.

Past, present, or future?

Test, “Reveal which I’m looking at...”:

Past: How things could have been in the past
Present: How things could be different now
Future: How things could be in the future

What to imagine?

It should realistic – something that really could occur in real life, and something that you want.

Think what that scene might look like. When you have something in mind, test, “Reveal if that’s correct: Yes, No, Maybe.”
When correct, close your eyes and imagine that scene until you feel you’ve had enough.
Test, “Reveal if that’s enough: Yes, No, Maybe.” If “Yes”, take a deep breath. If not enough, imagine it some more.
Type what you imagined below:

Keep it?

Test, “Reveal if I need to keep it: Yes, No, Maybe.” If yes, pick a place, then close your eyes and imagine putting it there. When done, open your eyes and take a deep breath.

The Feelings lists

Test, “Reveal which...”

These three lists show what feelings may be behind your issues. Including: what you believe you must feel (“I must be...”), what feeling you’ll get in exchange for being yourself or for being in your situation (“I will get...), or what you fear you might feel (“I fear...”).

I must be...

What’s this?

What must you be and feel? Something good that you really want? Something that you seek and would really help you if only you could be that way? Alternatively, is it something negative that your body feels is inevitable, like it’s your fate, or all you’re good for?

Test, “Reveal what I must be...”

I will get...

What’s this?

What will you feel in exchange for being the way you are, or for being in your situation? These two lists help you to understand what feeling you expect to get, and what you have felt before, for either being yourself or for experiencing your situation.

Positive or negative?

Test, “Reveal if I will get...”

I will get a positive feeling

Test, “Reveal what I will feel...”

I will get a negative feeling

Test, “Reveal what I will feel...”

I fear...

What’s this?

What fear or worry is somehow connected to the issue you’re considering in this session? This list isn’t about common phobias, like being frightened of spiders or heights. It’s to show what fears or worries – both subtle and strong – are directing your personality.

Test, “Reveal what I fear...”

The Desires lists

Test, “Reveal which...”

These lists help identify desires that are either unhelpful, or are good but are causing pain by going unfulfilled. They list different desires (“I desire to be...”), why they may be there (“The purpose of my desire”), and describe their unhealthy nature (“Describe my desire”).

I desire to be...

What’s this?

A desire for something, perhaps something you have not considered, may be supporting your issue and preventing you from growing out of it. This technique helps you to find out what it, or they, may be.

Test, “Reveal what I desire to be...”

The purpose of my desire

What desire?

Think, which of my desires are we talking about?
When you’ve thought of a possibility, test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it below. If you don’t know it, just continue on anyway.

The purpose?

Test, “Reveal what is the purpose of my desire...”

To use what I desire
To have what I desire
To be what I desire
To get something from what I desire

How it feels

Test, “Reveal the important sentences...” and test each sentence while you read the below paragraph. Click to highlight each sentence your body chooses.

(Please select a description)

Using this is exactly what I require to maintain my life and bring it all together.

In fact, this is absolutely necessary! If I can use this for my own ends, there is surely no risk of my life going to pieces.

Actually, it does take some strength on my part to get this. When I use this then I am fully assured that everything is all right.

This is something I oh-so desperately need! If I just had this, even for a moment, oh how it would be perfect! I would be so complete!

I can’t stand feeling bland frustration. Oh if only I had this! Everything would be so perfect, I would be renewed!

Sometimes I might tell myself I’m being selfless in this, but it’s not really true. Whatever it is, what I need is to have this provide a missing part of me. It doesn’t concern me much what anyone else thinks.

How fulfilling it would be if I could be this way. Oh if only I could be this! Then I would be happy and I would be satisfied. If I am not this way, is my life worth living? What can I do?

I don’t know why I failed to be as this. I don’t believe I am, nor can I ever be, as I wish. Why even try? I’ve not been this way in the past. Why can’t I be what I want to be?

Whatever I need from this, I believe that if I don’t get it, I will be left with nothing.

This has complete power over me. My own feeling of contentment is entirely reliant upon this giving me what I need. I am at the mercy of this!

Thus I have no responsibility for it. All my personal responsibility has been handed over to whatever or whomever gives me what I need.

If for some reason it fails to give me what I need, then I am left with nothing! What on earth am I supposed to do then?

Reality?

The reality is the opposite of what you read above. “Reveal if I need to read the reality: Yes, No, Maybe.” If you do, click “Read the reality” below. Otherwise, press “Done”.

The purpose of my desire (reality)

The reality

This is the opposite of what’s above. Test, “Reveal the important sentences...” and test each sentence while you read the reality below. Click each your body chooses.

(Please select a description)

I will only pay any attention to this for as long as I can get what I want out of it.

The truth is that I actually don’t really need to use this as glue to stick myself together. In fact, I never really needed to use this at all!

In reality, I already have within me everything I need to use. Within myself is, and always was, the true sources of strength to bring my life together.

Any of these things outside of myself are, in fact, inferior. With me are exactly the things I need to use.

This could never genuinely satisfy my need. It’s just a misperception. The missing part of myself which I was seeking, was really within me all along. Only what I already possess within me can genuinely satisfy my need.

I have no deficiency. Everything I require is already here, inside myself. Every part is present. I am complete.

What I believe I should be is actually not really special or remarkable. It’s actually ordinary and unremarkable.

What I can be, and perhaps what I already am, is just as “ordinary” and “unremarkable”. Inside I can be what I want to be, who I want to be, and I am capable of being anyone I wish.

Inside of me I already have everything required to be me. I am satisfied with what I can be inside myself.

What I believe this can provide me, was never really the best thing for me.

The best version, in fact, is only produced by me within myself. Only my own home-grown version of what I need is truly good enough. That’s far superior to anything it could give me.

Sure, whatever it is I need from this may be nice, but it’s not going to ultimately work. Only I can truly give myself the best version of what I need.

The reality

This is the opposite of what’s above. Test, “Reveal the important sentences...” and test each sentence while you read the reality below. Click each your body chooses.

(Please select a description)

I can clearly see that everything I ever needed was already inside of me all the time. What I thought my desire provided me with, was never really special. I believed it was special, but I now see that it’s unremarkable and ordinary. What I already have is perfect, and I already have exactly what I need.

I have enough of everything I need; I’m not lacking anything. Therefore, I’m free to pursue whatever I want, and I have no urgent need of any kind. I’ve already got everything I need, and I can exercise full authority over myself. I am in charge of myself, nothing else is, and nobody else is. I am self-sufficient.

Thoughts

Test, “Reveal which...”

These lists help reveal what thoughts are contributing to your issue. See what’s stopping you from growing out of your issue (“Where I’m stuck”), such as personality traits (“My personality traits”), beliefs about yourself (“Beliefs about myself”), aspects of your culture (“My cultures expectations”), and decisions you’ve made or need to make (“Decisions I’ve made”).

Where I’m stuck

What’s this?

To change, we must all follow a process. You must first accept you have the issue at this time. Only then is it possible for you to admit it needs to change. Once you do that, you are finally able to allow it to change. This technique shows where you are stuck in this process.

Find out where you’re stuck

Test, “Reveal where I am stuck...’

Accept: I do not fully accept that I have this issue at this time
Admit: I do not fully admit, or concede, that this issue needs to change
Allow: I do not fully allow this issue to change

Close your eyes and try to choose to accept, admit, or allow what you need to.
Take a deep breath and open your eyes.

My personality traits

What’s this?

Your innate personality traits are neither good nor bad, but they can play a role in creating your issues, or even stopping you from growing out of them. Or you may need to make more use of a trait to help you grow out of your issue. Find out which trait(s) help or hinder you.

Test, “Reveal which traits...”

What are they doing?

Test, “Reveal whether these traits...”

are contributing to my issue
could help me with my issue

How so?

Think, how are they connected to your issue? If you want, type about it:

Beliefs about myself

What’s this?

These are small phrases you may say to yourself, either knowingly or unknowingly. You may believe these things, even if it’s just at certain times and in certain situations.

Test, “Reveal which belief I have...”

My cultures expectations (1 of 3)

What’s this?

Your culture expects certain things from you; how to dress, act, and feel; it even dictates your likes and dislikes. Further, if you rebel against it, you may face ridicule, or if you can’t live up to its expectations, you may feel bad. Culture can contribute to your issues, or hinder you growing out of them.

Test, “Reveal what kind...”

My cultures expectations (2 of 3)

Agree?

Test, “Reveal if I agree with this expectation / these expectations...”

Can you comply?

Test, Reveal if I feel able to comply with this expectation / these expectations...”

Decisions I’ve made

What’s this?

We are not always victims of our circumstances. We often choose how to feel. The decisions we make can remain alive in the back of our minds, “pulling the strings” from “behind the scenes”. This technique helps bring these into the light where you can see them, and change them if desired.

What decision?

Test “Reveal what kind of decision I’m looking at...”

About how I feel
About how I view myself
About how I view others
About how I act or what I do
About how I view something
About what I remember
About what I choose to believe
(about something else)

Think, what decision have you made? Is it connected to your issue, or something that’s already come up in your session, or something else?
When you have something, test “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Keep it or change it?

Test, “Reveal if I want to: Keep this decision, Change it.”
If you want to change it, click “Change my decision” below. Otherwise click “Done”.

Change my decision

What do you want instead?

Think, what decision would you like to make instead?
When you have something, test “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Close your eyes and repeat your decision in your mind over and over again until you feel you’ve got the sense of it.
Take a deep breath and open your eyes.

Emotions (1 of 4)

What’s this?

Here you discover what emotion you feel, what emotions are related to it, and in what context you are feeling them. Your body can choose to reveal several emotions, showing what emotion is behind your feeling, and reveal if you are trapped inside an emotional vicious circle. You can see all of the emotions on our emotions chart.

To view the chart itself, your screen must be at least 1024px wide.

Which emotion?

Test, “Reveal which emotion I need to look at...”

Need a more specific word?

Is that word good enough, or do you need a more specific one? Test, “Reveal which emotion...”

(please choose an emotion above)

- Drink some water
- Take a deep breath
- Work out where I am in my session
- Add a note or say something
- Rest or stretch
- Remind myself of the options in the therapy

When you have something, test, “Reveal if this is correct: Yes, No, Maybe.” If correct, type it:

Do it

Do whatever it is you need to do.
