We humans are highly suggestible.
Think about it.
We learn through imitation - we imitate sound as we acquire language.
We imitate movement and behavior.
Our brain has the capacity to be impressed and affected by the actions,
behaviors and words of others - and to have these imprints affect our behavior.
Despite assertions of independence we are actually quite an
interdependent species!
Awareness of how easily we are impacted by the words of others gives us
a choice about how we react.
DANCE WITH IT! EXPERIENTIAL APPS
An opportunity to
experiment with some fun ideas…
SITUATIONAL HYPNOSIS AND THE IMPORTANT
ROLE OF AWARENESS AND PUSH BACK…
We are most highly suggestible
when we are vulnerable:
* Late at night
* Early in the
morning
* Times of illness
or injury
* Moments of high emotional
impact
People we give power
and status to can easily affect us:
* teachers
* doctors
* close friends
* family
Think about some of
the identifiers you use about yourself…
* What are
they? Smart? Lazy? Stupid? Clumsy?
Graceful?
* Where did you pick
up these ideas about yourself?
Think about your
beliefs about your ability to accomplish things
Have the people in
your life shored up your strength with their words or diminished you - even if
they were well intentioned?
Imagine you have some physical shielding
that has the ability to censor out words and comments that are not good for
you.
* What does your
shield look like?
* In what situations
do you need to activate it?
Imagine that it has
a shredder capacity that can go one month into the past and clean up and
destroy any negative 'get in your way' comments.
How does it feel to
empower yourself in this way?
