Generator Strategies
Wait to respond and Follow your Sacral Response
Generators, unlike Manifestors, are not initiators. As a ‘doer’ they fear that if they sit and wait nothing will happen. In truth when they follow their strategy – Stop and wait to respond - something shows up very quickly in their external world that they can respond to.
Follow your Sacral Response
Generators can streamline their ability to respond by answering simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’ questions with their gut. The gut sounds for ‘yes’ and ‘no’ are: “uh–huh” and “uh-uh.” Using these sounds turns on their Sacral motor and gives them full access to knowing what is correct for them.
Here’s a great way to start practicing your sacral response: Go to a restaurant with a friend and hand them the menu. Invite them to read to you the different options one at a time, so you can use your “uh –huh” / “uh-uh” response to choose what you’d like to eat.
Generators following their strategy dance with life. From the moment they open their eyes until they drop into sleep, they are actively responding to the next thing that arises, whether it’s a bird singing, their child calling, or a phone ringing at work.
Generator Self-Care
Generators are like energizer bunnies. Their ‘battery’ is designed to wear out at the end of the day, so they can sleep well, recharge, and be ready to get up and go the next morning. As a Generator, if you’re not sleeping well, you probably haven’t burned up your daily supply of energy. Consider adding more physical movement into your day, so you can thoroughly wear yourself out.
Relationships
Generators are designed to be in relationship with others. Even Generators who have the ‘hermit’ profile still need to engage and collaborate with others. The best way to enter into an intimate relationship is to respond; in other words, you’re not here to make the first move. However, if someone winks at you from across the room, feel free to respond. Generators have consistent and steady sexual energy, and usually like to sleep with their partner.
Parenting
Generator children, like all the types, are not here to be told what to do. They are here to respond and do what they love. It’s helpful to encourage them to use their sacral sounds (which will naturally occur as long as no one tells them it’s rude), so they can learn to rely on their innate ability to make good decisions. Make sure they get enough exercise so they can easily fall asleep and sleep soundly.
Love-Based Communication for Generators
They are busy doing what they love to do (or frustrated if not doing what they love).
DON’T tell them what to do.
DO ask them yes/no questions to wake up their inner authority and help them make decisions that feel good.
