Hi Ryan Francine Shapiro worked (administration and sales)in the Santa Cruz offices of Grinder, Delozier and Associates in the 80's. She approached me one day and told me that a friend of hers from New York has been raped and she wanted to help her through this trauma and ensure that she exited cleanly and without scars. I told Francine to put her in resourceful state (anchored) and have her systematically move her eyes through the various accessing positions typical of the major representational systems (with the exception of the kinesthetic access). I suggested that she see, hear (but not feel) the events in question - obviously the kinesthetics were to remain resourceful (the anchored state) while she processed the event. She later reported that the work had been successful. You may imagine my surprise when I later learned that she had apparently turned these suggestions into a pattern presented in an extended training, with no reference to source, with a copyright and a rather rigorous set of decuments essetially restricting anyone trained in this from offering it to the rest of the world. Ryan, you may well have experienced this pattern as it was sometimes presented in GDA seminars as a variation on phobia cures. There is also a format in new code pattern called the Artist Palette that uses the same sequencing for cleanup troublesome historical events. All the best, John |
