NLP Swish Pattern

1. Select a positive replacement image for an unwanted or negative image. Enhance the details of the replacement image to make it compelling. 2. Discover the trigger that precedes the unwanted behavior or image. Imagine this trigger associated with the replacement image. 3. Imagine the replacement image as a small image in the corner of the unwanted image. Switch between the two images, making the unwanted image get smaller and further away as the replacement image gets larger and closer until it replaces the unwanted image completely.

1 Select a replacement image First select your replacement image - ask yourself How do I want to be instead.

Having selected the replacement image see and hear yourself `over there in a dissociated image. It is important that this image is dissociated. !nhance the detail and the "uality #submodalities$ of this until it the image is "uite compelling. % Find the trigger for the unwanted activity &iscover how you know when to have the unwanted image or behaviour. 'sk yourself (hat occurs )ust before this negative or un-wanted state begins* +his time, you want an associated image of what is going on immediately before you engage in the unwanted activity. - .ut the replacement in the corner of unwanted image Imagine a small postage-stamp si/ed version of your replacement picture in the bottom corner of the unwanted picture. 0 Swish the two images 1ow you want t make both images change simultaneously and with increasing speed. #!2perienced 13.ers will select two critical submodalities to use here. However simply making the images change si/e and distance from you will work most of the time.$ Have the negative image become smaller and shoot off into the distance. 't the same time have the positive replacement image become larger and closer until it replaces the negative image completely. Imagine a 4swish4 sound as you do this - hence the name. +hat s one Swish sound. #&o this fairly slowly at first taking, say, 5-16 seconds to do it. +hen continue, doing it a little faster each time, until you are swishing almost instantaneously - in less than a second7$ 5 8lear your mind 'fter each Swish round blank your mind, fully7 +hink of something else or visualise your favourite colour. 9reathing easily as you do this since some people tend to hold their breath while concentrating on doing the Swish. It is crucial to the success of the Swish to clear your mind or turn your attention outside before you do each ne2t round. : .ractice 5-; times <epeat steps - to 5 up to about seven times until you have difficulty in maintaining the unwanted image. =I don>t visualise> +his is a common belief. ?ou can do an 'uditory or a @inaesthetic Swish, too. So if you #or the person , if you are assisting someone else$ believe that you have difficulty in visualising you could accept this belief and use a kinaesthetic or auditory swish. However the Swish will generally be more effective in the Aisual system since this appears to be the only system in which we can simultaneously change two sets of representations. So I would suggest that you act as if you are visualising - do it pretending that you are able to follow the steps and can visualise clearly. 8uriously, this will work )ust as effectively7
