Swish Pattern:

is an Neuro-Linguistics Programming that can assist in removing unwanted behavior and move you towards your desired outcome.

• A: This technique is useful anytime you want to remove unwanted behavior or feelings and can transform it into a desired outcome.
• In section one: We created a large empowered image of ourselves.
• Close your eyes and recall this picture. I would like you to imagine this image again and then place this image of yourself, onto the cover of “TIME Magazine”
• Make it as colorful as you can.
  • In your mind’s eye pick the magazine up. Smell the magazine, feel the cover, texture, weight and temperature of the magazine.
  • Listen to the sound as you turn the pages.
  • Listen to what your peers saying about seeing you on the cover?
  • What feelings do you have? Pride, accomplishment, gratitude.
  • Sear this picture of yourself on “TIME Magazine” into your mind in every detail. Congratulate yourself for this great achievement.

 

• B: Now create a picture of yourself that includes the behavior you wish to remove. Place this picture onto a 5 by 7 piece of paper and put it into a picture frame. This is your “cue” picture. Store it in your mind.
• C: Recall your “cue picture and visualize the picture frame of yourself on a table in front of you.
• Reach over and take a black maker, place a large “dot” in the center of the picture.
• This large “dot” is like a “shutter of a camera” and can open and close as you command.
• Now bring forward, in your mind; your best self as shown on the cover of “TIME” and place the magazine on a stand behind the Cue picture.
• Command the shutter to OPEN
• Opening the shutter reveals your best self on the Time Magazine. You at your best.
• Open your eyes
• Repeat “C” 5 – 6 times. Each time you should end with the shutter open and you seeing your best self.
• TEST:
  • Try to pull up; in your mind; the cue picture… it should be difficult.
  • Imagine your BEST self on the cover of Time. It should be easy and natural.
