Replay. Definitely hit home--my biggest takeaway is that the swish pattern interrupts the compulsive thought with a picture of my ideal self in a general, non-specific way, which allows it to work universally on any number of patterning issues. This is deep. I'm so glad I have been able to find your videos, sir.

When I studied the Silva method one of the tools was the swish pattern which as you said in the lesson, focused on my ideal state versus a more neutral state that replaced the trigger image.

Wow, thanks for this. I love that you brought up that Steve Andreas wasn't afraid to challenge people who he thought were doing it wrong. It reminded me of a time years ago in the late 90s, when there was a very popular nlp (ish) email group that steve happened to be a member. The creators of the group were branching away from nlp into their own methodology. I remember steve actually commented a few times saying he could see some value in where they were creating. But unfortunately they took offence once to Steve's very legitimate questions around one of the techniques and ended up having a public falling out. I can't remember the exact details, but i felt so bad for the way they treated him that i emailed him directly (Steve) to see if he was okay. He didn't seem bothered in the slightest about it and was actually more interested in how they came to that reaction. How did they structure and represent his questions that lead to that reaction. Steve Andreas was the real deal, advanced nlp in so many ways, and I'm glad you're continuing his work

I randomly found the swish pattern via Dr. David Snyder. Later that night I went home and ran it. I had a very specific goal over something like 'completing my tasks.' It was a great experience. However, the surprise came at 2am. I suddenly woke up with a VERY LOUD urgency to go by some more colorful cloths. I went to Walmart at 2:30 am and bought some bright colored polos and shirts to wear at work. That morning at work many people stopped to mention how bright I looked. I was typically not noticed. I wore black polos and khakis everyday. No wonder. I got a loud urgency to look up psychology issues. I discovered that I had an 'attachment to deprivation.' I realized that I was trying to hide while also being a very loud personality among peers. I am not an introvert by any means, but my inner child was still trying to hide. What a trip. I'm pretty sure that whatever I 'actually' did with the swish pattern, it CERTAINLY shook some deep things loose.

Hey, thank you sir I was doing it wrong. One thing I found that helped when going back to the old unwanted behavior after the swish is to count down from 10 to 0 in your head and then redo everything. It's astonishing how each time it becomes more challenging to envision the unwanted behavior. I'm beginning with small steps, and hopefully, if I notice some improvement, I will gradually progress to other areas for me it was porn addiction. I'm uncertain how this will aid in boosting confidence with women or finances. When I visit the ideal place, I envision myself breathing in a way that resembles meditation. Although I understand you advised against doing anything, this feels like the closest approximation to doing nothing that I could imagine. I feel like most of my self-help gurus have let me down the only one I can't seem to knock is Wayne Dyer his stuff is still so good even after years of listening to it.

Reply: I also have been taught in my NLP practitioner course the wrong switch pattern technique. I found out this while I was learning the silva method where laura Silva was explaining how to do visualisation correctly. Most people when they want to change a habit, they visualise how they act for example: if they want to lose with, they imagine themselves, how they do exercises or eat more healthily. We don't have access all the time to do the things that we imagined ( we cannot eat all day healthy food or do exercises) and that's why the bad habit always is back. Instead of seeing ourselves as how we act, we should have the feeling of how we want to feel when we become our future selves because we have access to our feeling all the time. I hope that makes sense. 🤩

Thanks for everything you do you are deeply appreciated. 🙏🏽

You can make the image the way it works for you. Head and shoulders is just a suggestion. The bottom line, that’s been hard for me to really get, it that it’s a very personal thing. Test and experiment and change it for yourself and see what works for you. If seeing more of your body ( be sure there’s no context or content) helps you to have the result you want, then use that. It’s for each of us to discover. Just be sure that you follow the steps excactly at first. Then, when you know you have got it, start getting creative.❤️

So it seems like the positive outcome in a Swish pattern after the interrupt should be on a logical continuum of "what's next" visually and kinesthetically. If you want the best version of yourself to show up logically in the sequence then it might be good to use resource circle to practice the states that can make the breakthroughs. I like Todd Herman's book The Alter Ego Effect as a resource for constructing an ideal self.
@DamonCart29 күн бұрын
The Swish is specifically used for breaking bad habits. It's great to experiment to see what else you can do with it. But if you're looking for deeper work or the "what's next", it can be found in Steve Andreas' Self-Concept Model. I've never come across a more complete, precise, and transformative model for change.
@rexjantze29629 күн бұрын
@DamonCart I meant the "what's next" in more like a "what to do instead" if there is an immediate productive action to counterproductive behavior if it's context oriented, such as opening a browser (the potential trigger) and immediately watching random KZbin videos (or naughty stuff) versus doing research for your next blog content. That may be better as an adjunct, anyhow, to the ideal self you suggest on the other side of the swish pattern. I've used it successfully in repatterning my sleep schedule and, as suggest, to extinguish my pattern of useless KZbin viewing. And thank you for your productive videos! I'm using them as remedial retraining to classes that I took a couple decades ago from homegrown practitioners here in Portland.

I always wondered why it would be a good idea to swish back and forth several times. The answer I got when I asked my lecturers was it confuses the brain when processing the trigger, which I thought would be half correct. The main question I have at the moment (before going away and practising this new information) is what is the best way to get a subject or client to envision their best self with no context. What sort of words or phrases have you found are best at allowing them to see that new image?
@DamonCart10 ай бұрын
You don't want to swish back and forth because that can create a yo-yo effect where your ideal image swishes in place of the trigger image and then the trigger image swishes back in as the ideal image goes away. Only practice swishing the ideal image in so that it takes over the trigger image. Don't swish back. Set the images back up and practice the swish only in that one direction, never back and forth. The Swish Pattern is not about confusing the brain. It's about interrupting a pattern and setting a new course toward your ideal self rather than being triggered to engage in a bad habit. I just tell people to see an ideal image of themselves in no particular context and not doing any particular behavior. You can think of yourself being in front of a black backdrop or a green screen. I will tell them that you'll know when you have a good ideal image when you look at it and you're not even quite sure what it is about the image, but there's just something that communicates that this is your ideal you who has solved all of your problems and who is living your highest ideals.

I think this might be a result of an informal swish itself; it has kept me from my worst behavior (flying off the handle.) What that means is: feeling the pain of rage rather than raging. My takeaway is, my ideal self would feel capable of handling these urgent and petty situations. Thinking of myself in this way would obviate the need for that intense punitive (away-from) signal. Therefore, once I have installed the reminder of my ideal self in the routine, I can reasonably expect the recovery-from-pratfalls to be much more pleasant.

@@DamonCart I also did a few reps of the fast phobia cure, so I don't know which... It worked. I felt much cooler despite the usual gaffes. Next up: Generalize until this opossum turns to a tiger.

replay. Take away how to do Swish pattern correctly and then also the importance of Decision vs Negotiation. That statement affected me in the importance of making decisions about certain areas and eliminating or minimizing negotiation in those areas that are important to me especially in light of values. Going to spend some time here addressing this.

Is it possible to perform a covert swish pattern? Dor example into a Nested Loops? Or in other way?

With enough creativity, almost anything can be done covertly. I've done a re-imprint covertly and that's an extremely involved process.

What process did you say might work better for fear? I didn’t understand the words you said there and I am brand new to NLP so couldn’t figure it out. Thanks!

Hi Damon, Great lessend. My question to You. You’ ve mentioned “beach, Hawai etc” but than you’re refering to aLocation . I believe a location is not desired?

Just so! If you use a picture that fits anywhere, then you can use it anywhere.

You don't want to include a particular location in your ideal image. You want a neutral location so that it can generalize to any location.
