Module 11

Question 1

What are the 6 instructions for the Vivid Visualisation technique?

Answer 1

1. “In a moment, I’m going to ask you to close your eyes and imagine the entire memory that we have been working on. When I ask you to begin, you will go through the memory,
   silently in your mind, frame by frame, looking for upset. As you go through the memory,
   exaggerate everything that was bothersome about the memory: colors, sounds, sensations, etc.”
2. “Previously, our intention was to manage the intensity of the story to avoid generating too much emotion. Now, I want you to look for intensity. Look for any increase in activation as you visualize the memory. TRY to make yourself upset.”
3. “Should you encounter an emotion at any point, stop and let me know. We will do rounds of tapping on that point of the story to collapse the remaining emotion.”
4. Once the intensity of that point in the story has gone to 0, repeat Vivid Visualization from the beginning of the memory and repeat the process.
5. When the client has gone through Vivid Visualization with no reported intensity, repeat Vivid Visualization a second time, just to be sure.
6. No activation second time through? You’re finished!!
