Say the below words to the explorer


1. "What feeling, behaviour or thought do you want to change ?"

2. "Take a moment to relax and turn inward...think about a specific time that [the issue] occurred..mentally step back into that time and place, seeing what you saw whne you were thre and feeling what you felt...as you reliive this notice any internal images sounds or other feelings...you may begin to sense this part of you perhaps in some specific part of your body. Where do you sense this part lives?"

3. "Even though you don't know what the positive intention of this part is yet. you can begin thanking this part of you for being there, because you can trust that it has some positive intention for you"

4. "Ask this part of you', "What do you want for me thats important?" After you ask the question inside relax and notice what response you get back form that part of yourself

5. "Thank this part of you for its response" - this is important - do not omit this step

6. "Ask this same part of you, when you have [the issue or behaviour] fully and completely, what do you want for me through having [the issue /behaviour] that is even more important ?"

7. Again thank this part of you for its response.

Now repeat steps 6 to 7 again until the explorer reaches a core state - remember to write down each answer to the "what's it doing thats even more important" question as you recycle thru these stages.

     Notes for the guide


Jot down a key word or words that best describes this issue that they want to change after they have told you what it is, e.g, "I feel nervous when i meet new people"

Speak slowly and gently. Write down the bodily location where the explorer senses the unwanted part








Pause for a few moments to let the explorer get in touch with the feeling





Write down any answers - this is the first Intended Outcome








Write down the answer - it is the next Intended Outcome

Part Two - reversing the Outcome chain

1. "Sometimes our inner parts get the idea that in order to experience Core States such as (     ) we have to first do certain things but the way to experience a core State is to just step into it and have it"

2. "Invite this part of you to just step into 9)now, and ask the part "When you just have (      ) in an ongoing way, how does already having (     ) make things different ?"

3. "Ask the part, "How does already having (     ) as a way of being transform or enrich [the issue/behaviour]."

Repeat Step 3 with each Intended Outcome (the issue or behaviour) until you reach the original situation.

Remember to go only as fast as your partner answers - go at their pace.

Below is an example of one of my old sessions:

    




(Parts core State)






( Core Stae)
(Core State)(Core State)



(Core state)
[ the issue ] - begin with the answer below the core State first and then continue down with each successive question from number 3
