Subconscious Programming For Automatic Fear
Removal
A) Conditioned Responses
When I accompanied my dog, Kolby, to training classes the first thing we were taught was to associate a clicker with a treat. I would press my thumb on the clicker, it would create a clicking sound, and I would give Kolby a piece of turkey.
It wasn‘t long before the sound of the clicker got his attention.
Then I learned to practice saying his name, hitting the clicker, and giving the treat. Within minutes he learned to associate hearing his name with something good. After that it was only a matter practice before we had him doing any number of things (see here for an example).
If you have a dog at home and you spend some time watching you will notice that much of his day to day activity is a result of these "Conditioned Responses" whether programmed into him purposely or not.
Pick up the leash and watch the happy dance, head towards the food bag and see him salivate. And give him "the look" and watch his eyes go down as he recognizes, by your action, that he has down something wrong.
Dogs aren‘t the only ones who react to the world using a series of Conditioned Responses. Though mostly by accident and for the most part unconscious, the way we humans react to the world around us is dictated in a large part by a series of Conditioned Responses we have been learning since early childhood.
The love and warmth you feel inside when you smell cookies baking is a result of what you learned in Grandma‘s kitchen. The tightness in your gut and shoulders before watching your team‘s football match " learned from your coach or your father as a child.
Conditioned responses are instilled either gently, with repetition over time, or as a result of one traumatic experience. And the traumatic experience doesn‘t necessarily have to be real. Sometimes a really scary movie can instil a fear of the dark in someone just as being attacked one time as you walk down a dark street can.
The great news is that once you have a general understanding of the Conditioned Response it becomes possible to consciously condition new ones. And you can condition these responses with a trigger that you can set off whenever you want to elicit the response.
With the dog we used the clicker as a trigger. Every time he hears the clicker he becomes focused and pleased with himself. After a short time just hearing the clicker makes him a happy dog, even if he doesn‘t receive the turkey, his body responds as if it has.
For us humans I suppose we can use a clicker as a trigger if we want, but it‘s not necessary. A certain touch would work, as would a word or even a smell. Whatever it is, it shouldn‘t be something that you experience often (in the Free From Fear program we use a specific finger placement along with a pleasant self created sound).
Once the trigger is chosen, you can then program it to set off a specific response. Let‘s say you want to feel confident on command (useful as you head into that job interview). For this example you want the trigger to be something casual that you can set off in front of others, so it becomes your thumb pressing briefly into the inside of your elbow.
Then, whenever you are feeling confident, you press down on the trigger point. This essentially programs the feeling of confidence into the action of the trigger. Once programmed it then just becomes a matter of setting it off whenever you are looking to feel more confident.
Don‘t want to wait until you are feeling confident to program the trigger? There are a number of techniques you can use to create any number of feeling states.
In the Feel Good Trigger a combination of brainwave entrainment and visualization techniques are used to generate a positive feeling state, which is then programmed into the trigger.
In this audio in the Brave Heart System we continue the use of sophisticated BWE technology to further train your brain to produce better brain and body chemicals on a regular basis.
In addition to the BWE technology you will be guided through a proven process that installs a 'feel good' trigger that you can use anytime you wish to reduce fear and anxiety while promoting a balanced and peaceful mindset.
B) Hypnosis
Hypnotherapy is an application of hypnosis for therapeutic benefits. It can be used in areas such as medicine, sport, and for development of a person‘s well"being. It is no surprise to discover the diversity of problems from which people suffer. Two people with the same problem can easily have different reasons for creating that problem, and different motivations for giving it up. We've found that by far the best approach is to treat everyone as individuals.
The reason we say that people "create" their problem is because the only world that really exists, is the one we create within our own minds. However, since we are creatures of habit, and regularly hard wire our nervous system to perform specific acts, emotions and behaviors, it becomes easier to understand how people believe that the problem is not only outside of them, but outside of their control. When Patients come for a hypnotherapy consultation, it is always helpful to explain to them the way in which the brain takes in, filters and represents information to consistently produce specific states. An underpinning knowledge of the NLP communication model is particularly helpful for explaining this process within the mind.
Hypnosis enables your mind to focus concentration, producing a state of deep relaxation. Throughout this process, your mind is more open to suggestion, allowing you to make changes in your perception and behavior, for the benefit of your health. Using your imagination is a mild form of self" hypnosis. This tells us that trance is a perfectly natural and normal phenomenon. During hypnotherapy the trance is aided by your focus on the hypnotherapist's voice. When you focus in this way you are able to ignore, if you want to, the great deal of other distractions that may be around you .Whilst in hypnosis you are neither fully awake nor fully asleep. However deeply you may go into hypnosis, you will remain in control of the situation and will continue to receive important sensory data.
